Evandene Tusk Collector was a Reachfolk leader of the Winterborn clan during the tenth century of the First Era. She was the mother of Mercedene, the Beast of the Reach, and a distant ancestor of several members of the Winterborn clan as of 2E 582.[1][2]
History[edit]
Sometime during the Classical Period, in the tenth century of the 1st Era,[1][3] the Winterborn were led by Evandene. During a raid on an Orc village, she showed restraint in 'merely' decimating the populace.[1]
Her daughter Mercedene grew livid when she arrived with reinforcements, and challenged her mother on the spot. According to the tale, she said, "Harvesting a tenth of the weeds yields a harder strain of weed. Best to burn the field so its soil can take another crop." She then killed her mother, cut out her heart, and ate it. When Mercedene left the village, the Winterborn rode at her back as she usurped her mother's position and was then on called the "Beast of the Reach". All the villagers were so full of arrows that they "resembled pine cones", and Evandene's corpse decorated the altar to Malacath.[1]
