Many of those unfortunate enough to encounter Sklar assume that she is some sort of hag, albeit one with an odd ancestry that grants her wings. Given her hideous appearance (even for a harpy) and mystical abilities, this is perhaps a reasonable mistake to make. Her sporadic association with Sora Teraza during the dusk hag’s wanderings has only cemented that notion in the eyes of those who knew of her.
Sklar served as an occasional arcane mercenary in the war, usually demanding eldritch writings and secrets in payment for her services. Potent as she was, she might have been forgotten as just another minor warrior if it weren’t for her history after the ascension of the Daughters of Sora Kell. Sklar holds the distinction of being one of the few powerful Droaamites who refused to bow to the ascended coven, yet who has also to date managed to escape destruction at the hands of the hags. Sklar follows a philosophy of anarchy and maintains that allowing any government dominance over Droaam—even one made up of “monsters”—means giving up a part of her identity and becoming more like (shudder) a human. At the present time, Sklar hires herself out as a guide or a mercenary, favoring assignments that allow her to work against the Daughters’ interests.
