Muiral was an accomplished human warrior who long
served as Halaster's bodyguard. His descent into mad-
ness began when he asked the Mad Mage to tutor him
in the wizardly arts. Muiral learned enough magic to
transform himself into a half-scorpion monstrosity,
becoming known as Muiral the Misshapen. He then
retired to the level of Undermountain that would later
be called Muiral's Gauntlet, driving out and slaying its
original drow denizens. Muiral now spends his days
hunting adventurers and other interlopers for fun. Long
years alone- and Halaster's influence- have rendered
him utterly insane.
