OOC: Hmm, one of my posts seems to have disappeared. I hope I didn't put it in the wrong thread. Anyway, Kalima is a divine being favored by Gnolls, Goblins and others, especially out here in the Border Isles.
"It sounds like his transformation may have overcome many of the weaknesses I knew. His power has grown, as he was once more focused on Illusion. I have not set foot on his island fastness in many years, but I suspect it has changed little. By the time I left he had little interest in the material world having focused almost exclusively on his quest to prolong his own life. The main keep was starting to suffer neglect even in those days. The servants had mostly grown old and died and not been replaced. He no longer threw parties in the feast hall and rarely bothered to have visitors. He once had frequent visitors from his various enterprises, but he tended to ignore them and they stopped coming. He retreated to the tower."
