[edit] Balthor Rockfist
A legendary warrior dwarf from Otaria. He did not feel at home with his brethren so Balthor left to live with the human barbarians living on the Pardic Mountains. He trained the sibling warriors Kamahl and Jeska.
After the events that lead to Kamahl acquiring the Mirari, Balthor was killed during a fight with Laquatus's latest "jack" Burke (Laquatus's Champion). He was reanimated as a zombie slave of Laquatus to kill Kamahl and obtain the Mirari for his master. At the last, Balthor partially regained his memories and intentionally gave Kamahl an opening to destroy him.
During Kamahl's exile in the mutated Krosan Forest, Balthor appears again (as a ghost) to guide the fallen warrior into taking the Mirari Sword to defeat Karona. Along the way, Kamahl lost his temper in the spectral Balthor and slices him with the sword, eliminating his mentor from existence. (Torment)

[edit] Braids
A legendary dementia summoner, also known in the Odyssey Cycle as "Fulla". Full of twisted malevolent glee, she had an extensive role in the Otarian series. It was said that Braids was the cabalist who lasted the longest of all the dementia summoners from creating the Cabal's signature Dementia Horrors, making her the Patriarch's main asset. During the Onslaught Cycle, she was given the task of providing the showmanship performances in the Grand Coliseum, even appearing during the Battle for Locus. During the aftermath, she sustained many injuries and was delirious in the desert oasis for a many days until she was rescued by Akroma, who brainwashed her in to defecting and fighting for the angel's cause. She returned to Aphetto City after being taken by her rescuers who brought her back to her "senses", just in time when Phage gave birth to Kuberr. The Patriarch was about to slay her when Braids spewed a monster who (miraculously) killed him. Braids eventually became the head general of the Cabal force that was sent out to take Karona, in order to make her the prime attraction in the pits. Even though Braids was too mad to be enthralled by the Mirari, she fell under the influence of Karona, and used her dementia powers to sprint through the air and come face-to-face with the false god. Karona, who was experimenting with her powers, had just made the earth disappear, and busy with figuring out how to fix it, she swatted Braids aside. Braids was busy using her powers to leap back from the hole when Karona filled it with earth, burying her alive. Knowing her death was imminent, she withdrew into her dementia world one last time, where the demons of her mind were waiting with grinning fangs and open claws. (Odyssey)
