Viston

"I've fought things far bigger and far scarier than you, whelp" - Patron Viston after returning from The Echoes.

At a Glance


An ominous Drow leader and member of the Nine Clans, Viston was pressured into the depths of The Echoes by a fierce onslaught of Clan Kollotos. Claiming to have "reached the bottom of it all" Viston returned to the The Deeps with a dark aura about him that kept Bulettes and other monstrous wildlife at bay. Fearing his presence, many rumours began circling that Viston had done battle with Torog himself and lived to tell the tale.

Mothers
Assembled by Breysis Vilatul to the rebuilt Drow capitol of Lolthlorien, Viston entered the city with the meagre members that made up Clan Dallvik. Seeking relief from "a lifetime" of travelling The Echoes, Viston took up residence in the city with his clan and plotted his next move.

Sons
Having been captured, Rohkalik Korlyuhka was given the option to call on three clan-members to appeal to a stay-of-execution. Summoning Viston, Rohkailik met with the leader of Clan Dallvik in the dark quarters of his prison.

Viston's presence was one of overwhelming darkness. Taking note of how the shadows around Viston seemed to bend with his presence, Rohkalik pleaded to the dark warrior for a stay-of-execution, pleding to help him with his war on Torog. While at first reluctant to accept the weakened Drow's help, Viston was won over by Rohkalik's charisma.

Appearing quite jubilant with her handmaiden by her side, Lyvis' conversation with Rohkalik would expose underpinnings of maliciousness. A slaver, Lyvis pledged that in exchange for her vote to stay his execution, Rohkalik would give up his firstborn child given to the smooth-voiced mistress -- her having a "collection of smallthings". Agreeing to the terms, Pix drafted the magical contract binding Rohkalik to this decision. Lyvis would prove to be a woman of her word as when the vote came, Rohkalik received a stay-of-execution.

Later, Breysis Vilatul's master weapon "The Sunken Heart" was usurped by Shackle, Champion ofTorog, who turned the weapon on the warring Drow with the intent to sink the city to the depths of The Echoes. This move would be countered by Sagan Anlu'moon who turned the weapon on Shackle, killing him and blasting the weapon at the ceiling ofThe Underdark. The resulting magical calamity of the city-sinking weapon cause the ceiling of the Underdark to dissolve away, exposing Lolthlorien and a large swath of The Deeps to the overland sun. With Breysis' spider-forces in disarray, Viston watched on as Lolth's corruption burnt away from exposure to the sun.

With Breysis' forces undone and Lolth on the run, Viston sought to rally The Nine Clans into defending the city from Torog, siding with Praxis Bovol who had survived his own encounter with Shackle.
