General Tew Yssup

Tew Yssup was the First General of General Vychen. He was killed by Vychen under the possession of Strahd Von Zarovich. Tew Yssup is very probably an undead creature. Later in the Kargat's existence, an individual of his rank would assuredly be undead. That he responded to an ambush with "fangs bared" and that his blood smoked as it spurt over the ground suggests something along the lines of a vampire. That he did not turn to mist to escape destruction constitutes a counter argument however.

Behind the Scenes

Tew's rather preposterous and vulgar name was an act of retaliation on the part of author P. N. Elrod, in response to what she perceived as unqualified meddling on the part of her editors at TSR.
