Editing Darklord (section)

===Anna Sparatoga===
Darklord of Okraina. Once a humble blacksmith's daughter, Anna's life changed when a mischievous fiend named Chort decided to offer her a fiendish bargain, trading her soul for arcane magic. Using her new powers, Anna amassed a small army of evil [[fey]] minions and began climbing to power; her father was her first victim, followed by the wife of a village elder whom Anna seduced for his wealth and power. When her new husband's daughter returned and suspected Anna of black magic, Anna once more comitted murder, and damned the realm of Okraina to the [[Demiplane of Dread]].

Anna wields the power of a 10th level [[Sorcerer (Dungeons & Dragons)|Sorcerer]], specializing in [[Enchanter|Enchantment]] and [[Necromancer|Necromancy]] spells, backed by her trusty Summon Monster V spell (note that Anna was made before the [[Warlock]] arrived in 3rd edition). Terrified of damaging her lovely face, Anna avoids conflict whenever possible; when she needs someone dead, she prefers to use summoned fey to attack the object of her ire whilst she is publically seen elsewhere, giving her a perfect alibi - this was the methodology she used to murder her father, the village elder's wife, and her stepdaughter.

Her Curse is two-fold. Firstly, her powers depend on her continued alliance with Chort, and the fiend is understandably rather pissed about being stuck in the [[Demiplane of Dread]] - unfortunately, she tricked him into giving her his phylactery, so she is able to compel him to continue obeying her. Secondly, she must ritually sacrifice a young man once a week by seducing him, riding on his back all night, and then slaying him at dawn - if she doesn't, she grows progressively uglier and uglier. And since Okraina isn't the most heavily populated of domains, she must often wait months or more between kills, using cosmetics to disguise her growing deformities.

Fortunately for her slayers, Anna is one of the weaker Darklords, lacking both the Undying Soul ability and even the ability to close her realm's borders.
