On the [[outlander world]] of [[Eberron]] in the nation of [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/Karrnath Karrnath], Clavius Kreel was the head of a Karrnathi army program during [https://eberron.fandom.com/wiki/The_Last_War the Last War] to use [[defacer]]s as [[undead]] [[assassin]]s. They were potentially useful for preventing their targets from being subjects of [[speak with dead]] spells or [[resurrection]]. The program was deemed largely a failure and closed down when several military officers of the army were found with their faces removed. Clavius Kreel [[disappeared]] at about this time.<ref name="MM IV p. 39">[[Monster Manual IV]] p. 39</ref>

{{Netbook}}

Clavius Kreel was claimed by [[the Mists]] after using the defacers to murder the Karrnathi officers for unknown reasons. He eventually wound up in [[Darkon]] some time prior to [[the Requiem]]. There, Clavius presented several types of [[undead]] from his homeworld to [[Azalin Rex]]. Clavius stated he was a [[wizard]] and [[cleric]] of the [[Blood of Vol]] that had developed several new types of undead that might capture Azalin's interest, offering the [[bloodhulk]], [[boneclaw]], defacer, [[Karrnathi skeleton]], and [[Karrnathi zombie]] as examples. Azalin has since referred to these new undead as important new directions for the [[war]] efforts against [[Falkovnia]].<ref>[[Van Richten’s Files: The Clavius Keel Case]], [[Quoth the Raven Issue 26]], p. 147-151</ref>

The Clavius Kreel-Azalin Rex interaction was reported to [[Dr. Rudolph van Richten]] by [[Horace Grenville]]. According to rumors cited by Grenville, a "[[research facility]]" on the undead exists somewhere to the east of [[Karg]]. Unfortunately, Grenville was found [[murdered]] shortly after relating this information to Dr. van Richten. A "XXX" symbol was discovered at the scene of the crime.<ref>QtR 26 p. 147-150</ref>

==Behind the Curtain==
Clavius Kreel is an [[NPC]] introduced in the [[3rd Edition]] [[Monster Manual IV]] in the [[defacer]] monster entry adapting the creature to the [[Eberron]] campaign setting with no mention of Clavius Kreel coming to the [[Demiplane of Dread]], only that he "[[disappeared]]".<ref name="MM IV p. 39">[[Monster Manual IV]] p. 39</ref> A [[fan]] article in the Ravenloft [[netzine]] [[Quoth the Raven]] interprets his disappearance as an abduction by the Mists.<ref>QtR p. 147</ref>

The original [[canon]] material from the Monster Manual IV spelled Clavius Kreel with an R after the K in his last name. A [[fan]] article in the [[Quoth the Raven]] [[netzine]] mistakenly spelled his last name without the R. The former, [[canon]] name has been used in this Mistipedia article.
