| First Appearance |
Khelta, also known as Queen Khelta, was a powerful Necromancer and the founder of Khelt.
Appearance edit edit source
Described to be "sort of short" by Erin Solstice,[2] Khelta's eyes were a pale white with a hint of brown, and her skin coloration was native to Chandrar (probably dark).[3]
Personality edit edit source
Khelta was imperious or impertinent, depending on who you asked. She remembered those who opposed her and humiliated them in the years to come. Later rulers of Khelt may have modelled themselves after her in some ways.[4]
She had always loved the living and the dead equally.[5]
She seemed to disapprove of Fetohep's crusading and warrior tendencies, viewing him as impetuous.[3]
Background edit edit source
Khelta grew up in a small city called Koirezune, which was eventually lost to time.[6]
21,000 years ago, Khelta founded Khelt[1] amid sand and dust with a vision of safety.[5] She named the capital city Koirezune, after her home city.[6] Countless species flocked to the newly founded nation, and her magic was respected like all other kinds. She had walked every land in the world.[5]
She met the Quarass for the first time while staking land for her kingdom. The Quarass mocked her then, but later respected her will. She met six of the Quarass' incarnations in her lifetime.[4]
Khelta attended the Gnolls' Meeting of Tribes four times. In those days, the Meeting of Tribes occurred every two hundred years, placing a minimum range of 800 years for Khelta's lifespan. During the first Meeting of Tribes Khelta attended, the last Unicorns of the Vail Forest of Izril came to trade the horns of their dead, and a Dragon attended who demanded a tribe fight for her, which nearly came to a miniature war.[1]
She fought against Roshal in her era.[7]
Khelta was the greatest [Necromancer] (and just as great of a [Queen]) the Quarass has ever met in her thousands of years of existence.[8]She created the pact that provided Khelt's undead legions and workforce. She had won the admiration of countless nations, made Giants tread cautiously, and proved that Khelt was not to be pushed around.[4]
