Description

Aqudels are obsessed with control. They consider everything around them open to manipulation, and their position in the alghollthu hierarchy leads them to lord over networks of ugothols or small, established societies that they often bully and exploit from the shadows. Aqudels answer only to vidileths, following their commands with a combination of simpering compliance and scheming distrust.
