Alashra is the consort of Nathrek the Pale, and is, in fact, the power behind the throne of the kholo1 tribe based at Lamashtu's Flower in southern Osirion. Alashra is a powerful cleric of Lamashtu, quite possibly one of her most powerful followers in all of Osirion. Alashra is directly responsible for the success of her kholo tribe, using her shape-shifting ability to infiltrate nearby Eto. In Eto, Alashra poses as the merchant queen Shai-Nefer and uses her powerful position to lead members of caravans to their deaths in desert ambushes outside of the city.2

Alashra has a daughter from her relationship with Nathrek: Najak, the kholo leader of the Marrow Reavers adventuring group.3
