Ammaratha Cyndusk was a song dragon, and the mother of Narnra Shalace by Elminster.[7]
History[]
Early life[]
Ammaratha's early life was not known; what was known about her came mainly by way of Elminster and their daughter Narnra.[speculation]
Around 1300 DR, Ammaratha adventured in the form of a human sorceress, using the pseudonym Maerjanthra Shalace.[1] She eventually settled in Waterdeep, where she became a jeweler for the nobility, and became known as Lady Maerjanthra of the Gems.[2]
During this time, she became one of Elminster's many occasional lovers. Eventually, she decided to bear him a child, which presented a problem: as a Chosen of Mystra, Elminster had conscious control over his own fertility. She decided to go to her lover's fellow Chosen, Khelben Arunsun, to get a spell to let her conceive. Arunsun at first refused, but then the goddess Mystra herself intervened, commanding the Blackstaff to grant the request.[8]
Life in Cormyr[]
After fleeing Waterdeep, she settled in the city of Marsember in Cormyr, where she took the name Lady Joysil Ambrur, presenting herself as a wealthy Sembian merchant noble.[3]
She was last seen with former Mage Royal Vangerdahast in 1373 DR, who forced her into stasis in draconic form alongside him. This was part of a plan by Vangerdahast to bind metallic dragons in an extradimensional space, replacing the fallen Lords Who Sleep as the hidden guardians of Cormyr.[9]
15th century[]
She remained in stasis with Vangey, later joined also by Myrmeen Lhal, until a large army of shadovar arcanists led by a prince of shade attacked their resting place in 1487 DR. During the battle, the shadovar were defeated thanks to the ghost of Alusair Obarskyr, but Ammaratha died in the fighting.[6]
Home[]
In Marsember, as Joysil Ambrur, she dwelled at the Haelithtorntowers mansion.[4]
