Dread Possibility Missing from Gaz IV:
Iliana Foami, proprietor of the Black Hourglass Inn, is a most unusual creature. She hatched seven years ago, a red widow exhibiting ambition and curiosity rare for her kind. Iliana soon came to the attention of Ivana Boritsi, who transformed the fiery beauty into an ermordenung. Like most of Ivana’s subjects, Iliana was not a willing participant, but she quickly grew accustomed to her new, lavish lifestyle — particularly the promise of venom of life. When Ivana discovered that Iliana was a shapechanger, however, she shunned the loathsome creature. Iliana returned to Ilvin, where she quickly seduced and disposed of the Black Glass’ former proprietor. Heroes may interact with Iliana in several ways, each scarcely less dangerous than the next. Iliana is no longer driven to mate, but she still must feed. Iliana occasionally invites lone, male travelers into her private quarters. The inn’s attic is now choked with the husks of previous men to accept the offer. More importantly, Iliana is desperate to obtain the formula for venom of life. Without it, she knows she will be lucky to live another decade. Iliana often uses the goods stolen from her victims to recruit discreet adventurers to steal the formula for her. To guard her own secrets, however, she never warns her hirelings about the true nature of the ermordenung. Iliana and Ivan Dilisnya know that they share similar goals, but they seldom attempt to coordinate their efforts. Each finds the other entirely too monstrous.[1]
