Description: Though she doesn't command a ship, Scarvarial is accorded just as much respect by her company of specially drilled eladrin warmages. Skilled in both blade and spell, the Circle is a formidable force, and Scarvarial makes excellent coin when she accepts contracts in the Circle's name. Most of the contracts Scarvarial accepts are in the world—even though easy “natural” access to the Red Shoals is too infrequent to be reliable. Once the mercenaries have finished up a particular job, Scarvarial and at least one or two of her lieutenants know the Planar Portal ritual and can return to the safety of Ellisar Fortress at need.

A few years back, one of the Circle's contracts required that it travel into the world and secure a hold filled with an illicit drug known as “travelers dust” (whose users invariably end up dead after first becoming addicted). The Circle commandeered the hold, but was foiled in completing its contract because the raider Mur Kar of Abmelech Island and Captain of Mist of Shadows double-crossed Scarvarial. Since then, the Mist of Shadows and the Circle have engaged in an off-again, on-again skirmish.
