Gaila Maganas

     Gaila Maganas, Mage of the Watchful Order of the Shrouded Dawn.  Medium Human Female.

Overview

A mage of the Watchful Order of the Shrouded Dawn, Gaila is the only known Augur to currently call Eisenstaadt home. The daughter of Godfrey Maganas, Gaila is something of an embarrassment to the family as she has often been seen wandering the streets of Eisenstaadt spouting portents to any who listen. The Whelps sought her out in hopes of finding out more information on the past, and therefore the murder, of the wizard Geldamar.

They found her spacious, mountain-side home on the outskirts of Eisenstaadt and, after receiving no answer at the door, entered and found her in the garden. Her use of mind-altering herbs had severely altered her perceptions, but the conversation was still fruitful. The Whelps discovered that she was trained in the Art in Oridal and, more significantly, had been involved in Geldamar's introduction and training within the Watchful Order. Gaila gave somewhat incoherent portents to each of the Whelps which, for the most part, were not surprising. When she attempted to provide a portent for Quinn, however, she was amazed to relate that the fates seemed to have no hold over him.

She was eventually asked to view the events that lead up to Geldamar's death, which she did using her fishpond as an augury device. As the vision continued, she suddenly became very afraid, claiming that the Black Knight had seen her. Though it would seem impossible, the Black Knight saw her through time and magic and his glare pierced her very soul. The Whelps then planned to take her to a temple of Baelthor when Rafezzi used his magic to remove the inebriating effects of her intoxicants, she became irritated and much less useful in her craft. Niccolo escorted her back to her home and, as he was leaving, she announced cryptically that the "first piece of the puzzle" was at Zaubersturm. Not quite knowing what to expect, the group eventually resolved to follow her advice.

When the group attempted to return to Gaila's manse, they found her under the influence of the druid Xorrin, who later kidnapped the Augur and brought her before the Manslayer. Her current whereabouts are unknown, but presumably Thet.
