Among the residual force the Covenant maintains in the city of Stormreach is a small group of clerics and warriors known as Gilead’s Flock. Led by Gilead Rhoy (LG male human aristocrat 5/cleric 3), a former Brelish noble, this group is tasked with locating and sheltering potential Covenant recruits when they arrive in Stormreach.
Gilead is a highly charismatic man with an aura of genuine peace and serenity about him. He has proven to have an uncanny ear for hearing the Song within others and guiding them to their proper role within the Covenant. When Gilead first arrived in Stormreach, he was abducted by the Cabal of Shadows and held prisoner for several days before the Covenant rescued him from a chamber deep beneath the city. No one knows the full story of what happened to Gilead at that time, but he lost the use of his legs permanently—no healing magic has been able to mend him. Gilead now makes his way around the city on a small (5-foot-by-5-foot) carpet of flying—a gift from an anonymous benefactor. This experience inspired Gilead to actively seek out and protect new disciples for the Covenant.
Gilead is accompanied at all times by his two most trusted companions and friends. Boorne (NG male personality warforged ranger 6) is a “scout model” created toward the end of the Last War, and one of the few warforged to have followed the Song to Xen’drik. Leahtari (LG female kalashtar psion 7) was one of the first wave of kalashtar pilgrims to find their way to the Covenant of Light in Xen’drik. She is an unusually gifted precognitive, and she uses her clairsentient abilities to assist Gilead in locating new disciples.
