这只强大的邪魔屹立时有近10呎高。它的皮肤犹如大理石般洁白,它巨大的双翅褪落着破旧的灰色羽毛。它的手脚皆灰,犹如带鳞的鸟爪;在它背后,一团蓬乱的长鬃自它背上垂下。这只生物的人形面容高贵而英俊,但双眼却是冰冷的黑点,在它脸上,烙印着一个庞大而复杂的符号。在烙印创面上,污浊的血液汇聚成涓涓细流。
This mighty fiend stands nearly 10 feet tall. Its skin is marble-white, and it has two huge wings that shed shabby-looking gray feathers. Its hands and feet are gray with scaly, birdlike talons; a long, serpentine tail writhes behind it. Small black horns curl from the sides of its head, and a long mane of disheveled hair cascades down its back. The creature’s humanoid-shaped face would be noble and handsome, but the eyes are cold black pits, and a large, complex sigil or mark has been branded across its face. The raw brand weeps trickles of foul blood.
作为 迷斯·卓诺邪魔之主Lord of the fiends of Myth Drannor 与 地狱Hell 被放逐的前大公,马尔凯基德Malkizid 曾经是位高高在上、侍奉 席德瑞恩诸神the Seldarine 的炽天使。在很久以前,他就遭到 阿罗诗Araushnee(正是这位女神变成了 蛛后Queen of Spiders 罗丝Lolth)的引诱背叛了 柯瑞隆·拉瑞斯安Corellon Larethian 并堕落。当阿罗诗的叛乱失败时,马尔凯基德也因其背信弃义而被贬入地狱。他以魔王的身份出现,并迅速开拓了自己的王国。
Lord of the fiends of Myth Drannor and an outcast archduke of Hell, Malkizid was once a solar who stood high in the service of the Seldarine. Long ago he was seduced into betraying Corellon Larethian by Araushnee (the goddess who became Lolth, Queen of Spiders) and fell. When Araushnee’s rebellion failed, Malkizid was branded for his treachery and cast down into the Hells. He arose as a devil prince, and quickly carved out his own kingom.
然而,马尔凯基德在几千年前就赢得了 阿斯莫蒂斯Asmodeus 的厌恶,并被从 九层地狱the Nine Hells 中流放。烙印之王The Branded King 决定在尤格罗斯魔的无名深坑众简历了自己的炼狱王国。因此,马尔凯基德既是一位 尤格罗斯领主yugoloth lord,又是位流亡中的大魔鬼,他的仆从则既包括追随流亡的魔鬼,也包括这些深坑中的尤格罗斯魔。
However, Malkizid earned the disfavor of Asmodeus thousands of years ago and was exiled from the Nine Hells, along with a small host of devils who followed him. The Branded King settled for building his infernal realm in the nameless pits of the yugoloths. Malkizid is therefore both a yugoloth lord and an archdevil in exile, and his servants include the devils who followed him into exile as well as the yugoloths of the pits.
马尔凯基德是只精明、可憎、耐心惊人、力量过人的邪魔。他绝对地鄙视着罗丝和她的卓尔们,把自己的堕落归咎于阿罗诗。同样的,他对柯瑞隆又恨又怕,因为在那时,他以为柯瑞隆会对自己展现仁慈,最终却被他从 阿梵多国度Arvandor 丢进了地狱。因为罗丝和柯瑞隆·拉瑞斯安都在他力不能及的范围中,所以马尔凯基德把他的憎恨留给了祂们的凡人追随者——地表精灵和卓尔精灵。
Malkizid is a clever, hateful, and patient devil of surpassing power. He absolutely despises Lolth and her drow, blaming Araushnee for his fall from grace. Likewise, he hates and fears Corellon, since he feels that Corellon might have shown him mercy, but instead cast him down from Arvandor into the Hells. Since Lolth and Corellon Larethian are both above his reach, Malkizid exercises his enmity against their mortal followers—the surface elves and the drow.
在数千年众,马尔凯基德已在精灵们的许多麻烦中扮演了微妙的角色。马尔凯基德是统治着 艾瑞凡达帝国Aryvandaar 的 瓦珊人the Vyshaanti 背后的秘密守护者,是他教给了他们许多强大魔法的秘密,也是他蛊惑艾瑞凡达在 第一次繁盛First Flowering 时进攻其他精灵王国。后来,他阴谋尝试俘获日精灵王国 西鲁瓦纳德王国Siluvanede。马尔凯基德的最大成功来自711~714 DR期间的 哭泣战争The Weeping War,在那期间,他在很久以前派遣到 费伦大陆Faerûn 的三只强大 聂卡罗斯魔nycaloth 仆从,导致了迷斯·卓诺城的毁灭。马尔凯基德于1355 DR重返费伦大陆,在追寻他的黑暗计划的同时,将自己定位为迷斯·卓诺城中邪魔的隐匿领主。
Over thousands of years, Malkizid has played a subtle role in many of the troubles of the elves. He was a secret patron of the Vyshaanti overlords of Aryvandaar, teaching them many secrets of powerful magic and encouraging their aggression against the other elven realms of the First Flowering. Later, he sought to ensnare the sun-elf realm of Siluvanede in his plots. Malkizid’s greatest success came in The Weeping War of 711–714 DR, when three of his servants—powerful nycaloths he dispatched to Faerûn long before—brought about the destruction of Myth Drannor. Malkizid returned to Faerûn in 1355 DR, positioning himself as the hidden lord of the devils of Myth Drannor while pursuing his dark schemes.
战斗Combat
在炽天使时代马尔凯基德的力量非凡,至今他仍保留了其原始形态的许多能力和特征。他是位可怕的敌人,能够在一对一的战斗中击败除最强大的大魔鬼或是恶魔主君外的所有敌人,但他最喜欢的武器是蜜语甜言和诱惑的承诺。他喜欢将权力的礼物俘获他想击败的人,带领他的敌人走向毁灭的道路。他只有在受到那些拒绝了诱惑的敌人直接威胁时,才会诉诸公开的战斗。
Malkizid was formerly a solar of unusual power, and he retains many of the abilities and characteristics of his original form. He is an awesome foe, capable of besting all but the most powerful archdevils or demon princes in personal combat, but Malkizid’s favorite weapons are honeyed words and seductive promises. He delights in using gifts of power to ensnare those whom he wishes to defeat, leading his enemies down the paths of their own destruction. He resorts to open battle only when directly threatened by a foe who refuses to be caught in his snares.
在对抗伤害减免时,马尔凯基德的天武和他挥舞的任何武器都被视作守序阵营和邪恶阵营的武器。在任何攻击中,他都得到+6的洞察奖励(该奖励已经展示在上述数据中)。
Malkizid’s natural weapons, as well as any weapon he wields, are treated as lawful-aligned and evil-aligned for the purpose of overcoming damage reduction. He also receives a +6 insight bonus on any attacks (this bonus is factored into the statistics above).
巴特祖特性Baatezu Traits:
马尔凯基德可与100呎内任何有语言能力的生物进行心灵沟通。此外,他能看穿任何类型的黑暗,甚至是 深幽黑暗术deeper darkness 法术创造的黑暗。
Baatezu Traits: Malkizid can communicate telepathically with any creature within 100 feet that has a language. In addition, he can see perfectly in darkness of any kind, even that created by a deeper darkness spell.
烙印Brand(超自然):
在马尔凯基德的脸上有一道可怕、渗流的烙印。任何身在30呎范围内、与马尔凯基德的凝视交汇的生物,都将被麻痹1小时,并遭受2d6点感知伤害(意志豁免DC 36以消除麻痹状态,并将感知伤害降低到1点)。只有马尔凯基德选择使用他的烙印作为凝视攻击时,巴特祖魔鬼和尤格罗斯魔才会受影响。该豁免DC基于魅力。
Brand (Su): Malkizid’s face is marked by a horrible, weeping brand. Any creature within 30 feet that meets Malkizid’s gaze is paralyzed for 1 hour and takes 2d6 points of Wisdom damage (Will DC 36 negates the paralysis and reduces the Wisdom damage to 1 point). Baatezu and yugoloths are affected only if Malkizid uses his brand as a gaze attack. The save DC is Charisma-based.
恐惧光环Fear Aura(Su):
以自由动作,马尔凯基德能创造一道20呎半径的恐惧光环。在其它方面它的功能都如同一道 恐惧术fear(施法者等级15,豁免DC 36)。若豁免成功,则对应生物在24小时内不再受到该光环影响。巴特祖魔鬼和尤格罗斯魔免疫这道光环。
Fear Aura (Su): As a free action, Malkizid can create an aura of fear in a 20-foot radius. It otherwise functions as a fear spell (caster level 15th, save DC 36). If the save is successful, that creature cannot be affected again by the aura for 24 hours. Baatezu and yugoloths are immune to the aura.
虹彩驱法prismatic disruption(类法术):
每日3次,马尔凯基德能创造一道虹彩驱法,影响30呎内、当前处于法术或类法术能力效果范围内的生物。马尔凯基德需对范围内的每只受法术或效果影响的生物,进行一次解除检定,如同他施展了高等解除;在检定时,马尔凯基德获得+24的调整,其中包括+4种族奖励。生物们所使用的那些给予固定奖励的魔法物品不受影响,但那些复制或授予了魔法效果、并在马尔凯基德在使用该能力时正在生效的魔法物品,将被驱散。
Prismatic Disruption (Sp): Three times per day, Malkizid can create a prismatic disruption that affects all creatures within 30 feet currently under the effect of a spell or spell-like ability. Malkizid makes a dispel check against each spell or effect on each creature in the area as if casting greater dispelling; Malkizid’s dispel check modifier is +24 for these checks, and includes a racial +4 bonus. Creatures using magic items that grant constant bonuses are not affected, but magic items that replicate or grant spell effects and are actively doing so when Malkizid uses this ability are subject to the disruption.
每被驱散一道的法术或效果,就将产生一道随机瞄准的虹彩喷射法术射线,打击这位目标生物(豁免DC 29)。该豁免DC基于魅力。该能力等效于一道9级法术。
For each spell or effect that is dispelled, one randomly determined ray of a prismatic spray spell strikes the target creature (save DC 29). The save DC is Charisma-based. This ability is the equivalent of a 9th-level spell.
再生Regeneration(特异):
善良阵营银制武器和有善良描述符的法术或效果对马尔凯基德造成正常伤害。
Regeneration (Ex): Malkizid takes normal damage from good-aligned silver weapons, and spells or effects with the good descriptor.

马尔凯基德的计划Malkizid’s Schemes
人们永远无法确定马尔凯基德身在何处、正在如何试图影响精灵的事务。许多学者推测他们的这位远古宿敌与卓尔对 科曼索Cormanthor 的入侵存在联系——不过几乎没人认为这只大魔鬼与 “瘸子”杰兹Jezz the Lame、或是其他任何卓尔存在真正的联盟。更有可能的是,马尔凯基德试图在卓尔队伍中鼓励独立思考从而在卓尔中制造分歧、同时促进地表卓尔与精灵的之间冲突。
One can never be sure where and how Malkizid is attempting to influence elven affairs. A number of scholars have speculated on a link between their ancient foe and the drow invasion of Cormanthor, though few would suggest that an actual alliance exists between the archdevil and Jezz the Lame, or any of the other drow. More likely, Malkizid seeks to create divisions within the drow ranks by encouraging independent thought, while at the same time promoting conflict between the surface drow and the elves.
马尔凯基德也可能正在赞助部分 胜利之刃the Eldreth Veluuthra、并煽动他们进行反人类战争。近期该组织中有新的魔法、后勤和金钱补给涌入,且来源不明。如果 剑刃领主the Vel’Nikeryma(精灵语Blade Lords,胜利之刃的统治议会)仅仅对马尔凯基德干涉了他们的事务,也必将挖掘并清除他们队伍中的任何邪恶外部影响。
It is also possible that Malkizid has been sponsoring elements within the Eldreth Veluuthra and encouraging their wars against humanity. The organization has seen a recent influx of new magical, logistical, and monetary support, the source of which remains a mystery. If the Vel’Nikeryma (the ruling council of the Eldreth Veluuthra) ever suspected the interference of Malkizid in their affairs, they would surely seek to purge any evil extraplanar influence from their ranks.
他将 魔裔精灵daemonfey 视作精灵的完美堕落形态,所以马尔凯基德一直在寻求与他们结盟。虽然他已成功招募了一些人,但魔裔精灵并不愿意让自己屈服于像马尔凯基德这样强大的生物。目前,他可能会是位有价值的盟友——但有朝一日,他肯定会宣布自己是所有魔裔精灵的霸主。不管如何,马尔凯基德有足够的耐心,并且觉得有朝一日魔裔精灵会意识到他的统治将带来的优势。
Because he views them as the perfect corruption of the elven ideal, Malkizid has been seeking an alliance with the daemonfey. Though he has managed to recruit a few individuals, the daemonfey are reluctant to subject themselves to such a powerful creature as Malkizid. Today, he might prove a valuable ally—but tomorrow he would surely declare himself overlord of all daemonfey. Nevertheless, Malkizid is patient and feels that, sooner or later, the daemonfey will come to realize the advantages of his rulership.
招募Recruitment
马尔凯基德谨慎地从精灵种族中招募着心存不满的成员。他的间谍几乎存在于地上、地下、以及 托瑞尔星球Toril 海洋中的每个精灵王国。他信任的副手们负责监视并将情报传递给他们的主人、向同盟组织分发援助、颠覆任何令精灵团结的努力。他还会招募腐化或强大的精灵,并在合适时播撒异见的种子。以下角色是可能遇到的两位代理人。
Malkizid carefully recruits disgruntled members of the elf race. His spies exist within nearly every elven realm above and below the ground, as well as in Toril’s seas. His trusted lieutenants spy and pass information back to their lord, distribute aid to allied organizations, and subvert any efforts toward elven unity. They also recruit or corrupt powerful elves and sow the seeds of dissention wherever practicable. The following are two agents that characters might encounter.
尼丝恩莉Niss’nley(守序邪恶LE,女性半日精灵/半尤格罗斯魔,战士 5)
尼丝恩莉Niss’nley 可并非只是她主子的一位有偿代理人。实际上,她可以说是一位家庭成员。她的父亲名曰 特摩尔Tremmor,是一只服务于 马尔凯基德Malkizid 的强大尤格罗斯魔。他侵犯了一位主人地牢中的被俘精灵奴隶,并让他的邪恶种子在她的体内生长。【之后的内容因过于血腥残酷,故略。】
Niss’nley (LE female half sun elf/half yugoloth fighter 5): Niss’nley is more than just a paid agent. She’s a member of the family, so to speak. Her father was Tremmor, a powerful yugoloth in Malkizid’s service. He bedded a captive thrall elf in his lord’s dungeon and set his vile seed to growing inside her. When the fiendish child erupted from its mother, Tremmor named his daughter after the sound of her dead mother’s organs spilling across the scalding hot stones of his bedchamber floor. Niss’nley grew from a cruel hellion to an enchantingly beautiful fiend at the feet of Malkizid, learning evil from one of its most accomplished masters. In time, her lord developed a brief infatuation with her. Her father, Tremmor, dared to protest and was slaughtered for his impertinence. Niss’nley watched her father’s murder with delight, but Malkizid soon grew weary of her overeager attentions. No amount of evil could completely eradicate her underlying elf nature. But rather than kill her, he sent her to recruit among the daemonfey, promising that if she should succeed, she would prove herself a worthy object of his lust once more. Niss’nley gladly took on this mission, and has been seducing and murdering her way through the daemonfey leadership ever since.
德黑姆斯Dheembleth(混乱邪恶CE,男性魔裔卓尔,游荡者 7/刺客 2)
当 罗丝Lolth 因某些被遗忘已久冒犯而背弃了他的主母时,德黑姆斯Dheembleth 在灭绝了他所保护家族的灾难性战争中幸存了下来,并从被派来追杀他的卓尔狩猎队手中侥幸逃脱。在黑暗中徘徊了一个世纪后,他被 马尔凯基德Malkizid 的手下俘虏了。马尔凯基德很高兴地完成了对这位前罗丝选民的腐化,并使其成为了自己的一员。目前,德黑姆斯是马尔凯基德最信任的刺客和代言人。他侦查着卓尔社会的边缘部分,保持着对几片飞地的监视,当机会来临时,他将无声无息地迅速出击,杀死女性神职人员、俘获有权势的男性、将其带回主子身边。
Dheembleth (CE male draegloth rogue 7/assassin 2): When Lolth turned her back on his matron mother for some long forgotten offense, Dheembleth survived a disastrous war in which his patron family was wiped out, narrowly escaping the drow hunting parties sent to destroy him. After a century of wandering the Underdark, he was captured by Malkizid’s minions. Malkizid delighted in completing the corruption of this former chosen of Lolth and making him one of his own. Now, Dheembleth is one of Malkizid’s most trusted assassins and agents. Scouting the fringes of drow society, he keeps tabs on several enclaves, striking silently and swiftly when the opportunity arises, slaying female clerics and capturing powerful males to take back to his lord.
