History
Av and Baxil were hired by Shalash[2] to assist her in infiltrating homes and palaces with the goal of destroying artwork, particularly artwork that depicted her. They were not aware of her true identity and simply referred to her as "mistress"; they noticed that she did not seem to fit in with typical Rosharan ethnicities, and Av assumed that she was of mixed heritage. Baxil was infatuated with her, but Av simply saw her as a well-paying, if dangerous, employer.[1]
During the break-ins, Shalash prohibited Baxil and Av from stealing anything. Av primarily served as a lookout and a guard while Baxil assisted Shalash as she performed acts of vandalism. Av and Baxil helped Shalash break into the palace of Ashno of Sages, who was said to be one of the richest and holiest men in Emul.[1] The pair may have also been present during Shalash's destruction of artwork in other places, such as the Bronze Palace in Azimir[3] and King Gavilar's palace in Kholinar.[4]
