Kyhur Anskuld

Kyhur is a tielfing (possibly half-orc) priest in the Temple of the Iris in the Temphere campaign. He lives and works in Caellond, though little is known about him at this point.

Where Wolf?
Kyhur first met the party shortly after the Feywilde Ball. He had petitioned Valanthe for assistance, as the nasty storm brewing over Caellond had generated a bolt of lightning that damaged one of the gargoyles perched atop the Temple. The gargoyles were panicked and had become hostile, hiding out in the temple basement and attacking anyone who got too close. The party was tasked with sorting out the matter.

Kyhur explained the situation, asking that the party attempt to catch the injured gargoyle and bring it out of the basement for repairs, but advising them to be wary of Bull, the large centerpiece gargoyle. The party ended up repairing the damaged gargoyle without needing to capture it, which Kyhur was relieved about. The party expressed suspicion that, given how hostile the gargoyles were acting and the fact that this couldn't have been the first storm they'd weathered, something else must have spooked them. Kyhur seemed troubled by the idea, but had no theories to offer.

The party later spoke to Kyhur again, checking up on him and the gargoyles. He had managed to lure them back outside, though he was somewhat annoyed by the fact that three strangers in town (Rochol, Beatrix, and Shanks) were harassing the half-elf Vandoryth, who Kyhur had offered shelter in the temple. The party investigated the temple grounds and discovered evidence that a manticore had attacked the gargoyles, though they opted not to share this information with Kyhur directly.

The following morning the party went to the temple again to test Vandoryth for possible lycanthropy. As they were leaving, Kyhur sent someone along to ask them to bring Vandoryth to Liadon Manor, so that the hunters could not hassle him again.
