Background
About eight years prior to the events of Exandria Unlimited: Calamity, Magister Hollow attended a party in Vasselheim and spoke with Vespin Chloras about the Ritual of Seeding and the Tree of Names.

Exandria Unlimited: Calamity
Magister Hollow arrived at the pre-Replenishment party at the Palazzo Por'co, having invited Purvan Suul to attend. However, despite having sponsored him, she took the opportunity to insult him and to disparage the Raven Queen's choice to destroy her research pertaining to the rites of ascension. Purvan stormed off, after which Cerrit asked her if anyone had come close to recreating the ascension. Lacrytia told him that she did not believe so, but he detected it as a lie.

Later at the party, while investigating the unidentified cleric of a Betrayer God, Patia found that the cleric had disguised himself as the hodmedod that brought Lacrytia's gift. The Ring of Brass found that Lacrytia had since left, claiming to want to apologize to Purvan. Patia opened the gift to find that it contained a small, nonmagical vial of poison and a note telling her it would be "the easier way out." Laerryn and then Patia then questioned Madara Glyph, who had last spoken to Lacrytia, and learned via Detect Thoughts that Micah Cormorant had ineptly cast Modify Memory on her to hide that Lacrytia had gone invisible and was about to assassinate Purvan, but the presence of Loquatius and Zerxus prevented her from carrying it out.

After the Ring of Brass completed their research, while on their way to the Meridian Labyrinth, Lacrytia stopped them, accompanied by allies on the rooftops. She also was also accompanied by several undead guards, and asked the party where they were going. Laerryn told her the truth, at which point Lacrytia called Milus Phren over. Cerrit realized something was strange about Milus's movement and flew up, which led Lacrytia to attack. She cast Blink at the beginning of the fight and summoned various allies in Infernal, including the erinyes Xartaza and a horde of k'nauthi. She also attempted Finger of Death at Patia but was Counterspelled by Laerryn, successfully grappled Nydas with a skeletal Bigby's Hand, and directed two mages to detect Cerrit's thoughts.

After being badly injured by Nydas, she told Patia "I've always hated you" and tried casting Circle of Death in the hopes of injuring much of the party, but when she tried to Counterspell Patia's Otiluke's Resilient Sphere she was Counterspelled by Zerxus and was killed by her own spell as it was trapped inside the sphere with her.

When Nydas and Patia reviewed the memories of one of her mages, they found that she had not only been conspiring with Micah Cormorant to bring the k'nauthi into Avalir, but that she'd also modified the memory of the mage so that he believed the city would not land, rather than that it needed to land before sunrise on the apogee solstice.
