Priestess Senityili is a lawful evil female sahuagin cleric who may be encountered during Chapter 4 in the Underwater City.

I shall introduce myself to you. I am Senityili, royal high priestess of Sekolah. And you are in the City-of-Caverns, one of our most ancient places.

Involvement[]

Royal High Priestess Senityili is one of the Clerics of Sekolah who tends to the spiritual needs of the sahuagin in the Underwater City. She can only be encountered if the party accepts Saemon Havarian's offer of help after they escape from the maze below Spellhold, during the quest Escaping the Asylum.

Gameplay[]

Once the party begins The prophecy of Sekolah quest - by slaying an ettin and being recruited to eliminate Prince Villynaty, the leader of the sahuagin rebels. Priestess Senityili will implore the party to stop by and speak with her before they go to the rebel-held portion of the city.

If the player speaks to her, she reveals that she is secretly a supporter of the Rebel Prince; she recognizes that King Ixilthetocal is insane, and fears that he will cause the doom of the city's population. As such, she has been working with the rebels to try and overthrow him, but to no avail; she asks the party to speak with Prince Villynaty and aid him in toppling the mad king, thus saving the city's blood-line and rebuilding the critically low spawn rate.

If the party agrees to speak to the rebel leader, she will give them a Rebel's Orb as a token to earn an audience with Prince Villynaty, though she warns it will not protect them from being attacked by the random rebels wandering the streets and skirmishing with the king's forces.

Like most sahuagin here, she has the SAHHCITY script assigned. If she is attacked, it will cause all the other creatures with this script to also become hostile to the party. That will end any open quests in the City of Caverns, nix dialogue opportunities, and shut down any temple services.

If the Priestess ever does become hostile, she will use all of those spells scripted for use in her InfoBox, if able, and not disrupted.

Notes[]

  • If the party tells the Priestess that they intend to slay Prince Villynaty for the king, she will verbally curse them for dooming her people, and will refuse to converse again thereafter.
  • If the Prince is slain and the real Rebel Heart is given to the King, then a cut scene will play - and this kills the Royal High Priestess as well.
