Knight Superior Kadrath ir'Vardikk was a high-ranking officer of the Order of the Emerald Claw who was involved in the Shadow Schism in the 970s YK.[1]

History[]

At the time, the Emerald Claw was still a part of the Karrnathi government, being engaged in espionage for Karrnath and a favored client of House Phiarlan's Thuranni family. In 972 YK, Sir Kadrath met with Lord Elar Thuranni d'Phiarlan and passed on intelligence indicating the Brelish planned to assassinate the young King Kaius III and Regent Moranna of Karrnath, using the assassins of Thuranni's own Paelion family. To prevent the plot, Kadrath demanded the Thuranni get rid of the Paelions.[1]

Initially reluctant, Elar nevertheless investigated to verify it for himself, but uncovered evidence implicating Lord Tolar Paelion d'Phiarlan in a scheme to wipe out the rest of House Phiarlan and the heads of the other dragonmarked houses and to seize control of all Khorvaire. Elar ordered the massacre of the Paelions and this led to the split of House Phiarlan and the creation of House Thuranni.[1]

However, it is speculated that the Emerald Claw may have faked the entire scheme, with Kadrath bringing some false evidence to Elar and the remainder being planted to back it up. Moreover, some wonder if this is why Moranna outlawed the Emerald Claw a few years later.[2]
