Roshan

 is a soldier of the Aurora Watch between 836 PD and 855 PD. He is a half-orc with red hair and small tusks, and his purple skin suggests that he is also half-drow. He accompanied Leylas Kryn to Bazzoxan in search of a means to save Quana Kryn from the Abyss, and he was later among the soldiers killed by Caelestis beyond the range of the Luxon beacons in the Vermaloc Wildwood.

Biography
Roshan was a member of the Aurora Watch, apparently of some rank given his ability to direct others.

After Quana Kryn was kidnapped and brought to the Abyss, Roshan accompanied Leylas Kryn and Dryca to the temple at Bazzoxan, where Dryca promised a means to save Quana could be found. Roshan was suspicious of Dryca's promises, but Leylas observed that the inability to trust Dryca was the reason he was accompanying them. He was nervous when Dryca alluded to the costs of rescuing Quana in the manner provided, but Leylas assured him that she accepted the consequences willingly. When Quana returned alone to the town in Bazzoxan, Roshan and Dryca rushed to her side. He demanded Dryca explain where Leylas was and was told that Leylas understood only one could return. He, Dryca, and Quana returned to Rosohna.

Months later, Roshan was among those sent to accompany Quana to the Vermaloc Wildwood, where she would execute Caelestis beyond the reach of the Luxon beacons. Quana sent him and the Watch away. Though he was initially reluctant on account of the orders given by Leylas, he took the soldiers into the woods to hunt for game. They returned to see Quana sending Caelestis with Dryca instead of executing her. Before Quana could engage him and the Watch, Caelestis transformed into a monster and killed Dryca. Roshan ordered the soldiers to preventing Caelestis from escaping. Caelestis killed the soldiers and grabbed Roshan by the throat. He pled with Quana for help, spurring her into action. However, Caelestis snapped his neck, killing him beyond range of the beacons.

Quotations

 * Roshan: "Many tunnels run beneath this cursed place. Most of them we want to avoid like the Plague of Strathfell. How can we trust the nether gnome's instructions, Your Grace?" Leylas: "We can't, Roshan. That's why you're here."
