Description The Avatar Wars project continues

"... A figure emerged from the wall just as the rest of the adventurers, accompanied by two guards, appeared behind Kelemvor and Midnight. The figure turned, looked at his guests, and froze. He was extremely handsome, with thick black hair, deep azure eyes, and a square-set jaw. His arms were thick and strong, his muscles well-tended.
He approached the travelers. "I am Mourngrym, lord of this place. How can I help you?..."

Mourngrym Amcathra is the lord of Shadowdale.

He was born to the noble Amcathra family of Waterdeep. As a child, he had everything he ever needed as well as lots of friends and a good knowledge of how Waterdeep worked. Still, he felt unfulfilled, as if he wasn't doing enough to make himself useful. In his early teens he began training to use weapons which served him well when he ended up aiding an associate of Khelben "Blackstaff" Arunsun. Khelben watched the youth with interest from then on and noticed his martial skill and his ability to remain persuasive under duress.

Mourngrym became affiliated with the Harpers and, through them, Khelben encouraged him to join Doust Sulwood, the current lord of Shadowdale in his adventures. He became an important member of the Knights of Myth Drannor and in 1353 DR, when Doust abdicated, he chose Mourngrym to be his successor.

A few years later, a diplomatic envoy from Cormyr named Shaerl Rowanmantle saved his life from the fiends inhabiting Myth Drannor but was killed for her actions. Mourngrym took revenge and had her brought back from the dead. In 1355 DR the two wed and three years later, had a child, Scotti.

When at the end of the adventure, the archwizard Elminster disappear during the battle against Lord Bane, Mourngrym take the news badly. Midnight and Adon are brought in under suspicion of murdering the Old Sage (without a shred of evidence) and Mourngrym allow an angry mob to choose their punishment, despite knowing full well that they would choose the death penalty and after being accused that fairer trials were held at Zhentil Keep. Luckily, the adventurers escap their fate.

Staying physically fit, Mourngrym has led Shadowdale to victory against Lyran the Pretender and during the game he fight with his people against a huge Zhentilar army led by Bane's avatar himself.

Nice design.
The head seems slightly too big for me but nothing really crucial.
