Wrathful Avenger of Sargonnas
There are few sights on Krynn more terrible than a
wrathful avenger of Sargonnas charging at his foe.
Wrathful avengers are individuals who have given their
souls to the Red Condor in order to do his bidding in the
world, exacting vengeance and punishing the weak and
the cowardly for their affronts, usually as they see fit. As is
often the case with zealots, Sargonnas’s wrathful avengers
tend to set aside their reason and compassion in their
pursuit of anybody they see as guilty.
The vast majority of wrathful avengers are fighters and
rangers, although many of Sargonnas’s clerics acquire this
prestige class as well. Druid, monk, and rogue wrathful
avengers are rare but might meet the requirements; most
other classes are unfavorable choices.
NPC wrathful avengers might be encountered in areas
prone to tyranny and despotism, chasing down rebels
and rogues for crimes against Sargonnas’s version of law
and honor. The player characters might meet one or two
minotaur wrathful avengers near the Blood Sea Isles, and
in the years following the War of Souls, a number of elves
have turned to the bloody path of the Red Condor and
could become dangerous opponents of PC elves.
Ex-Wrathful Avengers of Sargonnas
A wrathful avenger’s devotion to Sargonnas must be total
and unswerving. Any wrathful avenger that changes to an
alignment other than lawful evil or neutral evil or fails to
hold to the tenets of the cult immediately loses all classbased
special abilities, features, and spells, and may no
longer advance as a wrathful avenger unless he atones (see
the atonement spell description in the Player’s Handbook).
Sargonnas is rarely forgiving, however, and the atonement
is almost always accompanied by severe punishment at the
hands of the god’s other faithful.
