Olodan

Olodan is a Lightfoot Halfling Druid possibly encountered during Act One. She's a prominent member of the Shadow Druids who has been conspiring with Kagha to take over the Emerald Grove in the name of her violent order. She is involved in the last stages of Investigate Kagha quest.

Overview

Personality

Olodan is a cold hearted fanatic to the ideals of the Shadow Druids, seeing anyone from civilization as 'untouchables'. She does not share the same ideals on harmony as the Silvanus' Grove druids. She has no issues in using underhanded methods to further her goals, such as her swaying Kagha on violent views on protecting nature and conspiring to unleash the Rite of Thorns to seal off the Emerald Grove, so that the Shadow Druids could take control from within.

Cruel as she is, she's compassionate to Kagha when their plot is exposed and quite open about her intentions. However, even if offering to let the Shadow Druids take over the grove, she won't let the party be spared for exposing her plot. If Kagha also turns against her, she will become quite bitter at the Archdruid's last moment heel-turn.

Involvement

Olodan can be encountered quite early, though unknowingly so. Inside the Inner Sanctum, she along with her fellow Shadow Druids Wren and Pinta  Wild Shaped as rats. Even with  Speak with Animals, they will remain silent and attempt to seem threatening.

When enough evidence of Kagha's schemes with her is revealed, Olodan and her druids will reveal themselves, then openly admit to their plans. She will then order Kagha to join them in killing the party and taking over the druid circle. Unless Kagha is convinced otherwise, she along with Marcoryl and Loic will join the Shadow Druids side against the party.
