Canon:Beloved of Chemosh
This article is based on material by: |
During a rough patch after the War of Souls, the Krynnish god Chemosh decided that in order to get new worshipers he needed to give death a pretty face. To this end he took Mina as a servant/lover and sent her to go through Ansalon and create creatures known as the Beloved of Chemosh, near-invincible, beautiful vampires that can only be killed by the swat of a innocent child. Once a child hits one the Beloved is destroyed and the child is not considered innocent anymore.
After the events described in the Dark Disciple series there are no more of the Beloved in Ansalon. Though Mina recruited them in the name of Chemosh they were actually bound to her, as she was also a god, though she did not know it. The Beloved would only obey her commands, making them more her followers than Chemosh's. When Mina realises that she is a Godess she destroys all of the Beloved, and Chemosh vows to return to his usual minions.
