Clarota

Clarota was first encounted by Keyleth and Vex'ahlia when they decided to scout on their own, against their parties wishes. They found a path leading to his home in a cave behind a waterfall. He was dirty, wearing rags, and has a large scar on his face. He was also wearing a helmet that stopped K'varn's influence from having any sway over his mind.

He was cast out from his hive for having The Mark of the Arcane, something that his people viewed as an ill omen.

He was enticed to join Vox Machina on their quest further into the mines when he was promised revenge against K'varn. He wanted to free his hive from K'varn's influence, in hopes that by becoming their hero, they would be forced to allow him to rejoin the hive.

Clarota does not view himself as being able to be friends with anyone, but is willing to see himself as an ally to the party. The party frequently attempts to call him Clarence due to his odd name, but he will quickly grow angry and insist that they call him by his real name.

Death
Following the defeat of K'varn and the end of it's control over the Elderbrain, Clarota betrayed the party to the Illithid and was subsequently killed by them.
