Noncanon Information

Following the discovery of the cult in Aferdale, Malisha was killed and the cult scattered to the winds. "Malisha" eventually returned as a young woman (aristocrat 4/cleric 5) to rebuild the cult. She has kept her mental powers but lost most of her clerical abilities. Her mind is also conflicted, as a curse has been warping her back to her own self. She agonizes over whether the cost of losing a seemingly human identity is worth losing her preferred natural form (and vice versa).[3]

In canon, Malisha's origins are unknown, but in the Nocturnal Sea Gazetteer, she is from Bluetspur. Pretending to be an exile, she is actually a secret agent for The Illithid God-Brain. She enlisted in the cult in order to not only learn of the humans but also to conduct the study of anatomy and perform fleshcrafting experimentss.[4]

Malisha has also become a demilord of Liffe.[5] It is conceivable, but not especially probable, that she was the result of biomancy similiar to that practiced on Marcu Vasilis (Gambler) and that yielded Marcu Vasilis (Aberration).
