Xardorok Sunblight leads the Sunblight clan of duergar which, until recently, dwelled in the subterranean depths beneath the Spine of the World. Deep Duerra, the duergar god of conquest, visited Xardorok and urged him to conquer Icewind Dale, beginning with Ten-Towns.

Dark Obsession. Xardorok is obsessed with chardalyn and can’t stand the thought of anyone else possessing it. He must have all the chardalyn that Icewind Dale has to offer and is using his ample supply to forge a dragon, which he plans to unleash upon Ten-Towns.
