Selarith

Selarith, whose name Zeph glitched over as "Sellerith", is the shapeshifting agent of The Harsh who set the trap that bound The Infinite Scroll (see the Nonagon). He favours the guise of a silver-haired gnome with twinkling blue eyes, which Reid Ransom saw in a vision in 2024. He later held Blackrib Bastion under the Ridgeway (see Entering Blackrib Bastion).

Scabard notes

The Agent: Selarith

Background: Selarith is a doppelganger and a master of espionage and infiltration, who has long served The Harsh. Skilled in the arts of disguise and deception, Selarith was the perfect choice to carry out the intricate task of setting the trap in Bytopia—a plane known for its dual landscapes of endless orchards and perfect cities, where goodness and order prevail.

Appearance and Abilities:

• Appearance: Selarith can shift forms at will but prefers a guise of a silver-haired gnome with twinkling blue eyes, which blends well in Bytopia.
• Abilities: Apart from shape-shifting, Selarith possesses a keen intellect and is adept at magical traps and illusions. Selarith is also equipped with artifacts that enhance stealth and confuse magical detection, making him a slippery foe to confront.
