Skills Used


Gehraz never gains an elite skill, not even in Hard Mode.

Evaluation

 * Casting maintained enchantments (Life Bond etc.) on him is pointless, as his use of Signet of Pious Light will inadvertently remove them. This means, however, enchantments like Watchful Healing are especially effective when cast on Gehraz.

Dialogue

 * "Do you hear the wind singing against the blade of my scythe? Do you know why the wind sings? It sings because it remembers who we were, and knows who we will be. It sees me in my childhood by the Istani sea. It remembers me on the day of my death in Vabbi. How do I know these things? Since the day I watched Kormir born, I have learned to listen."

In the Throne of Secrets, as an NPC:
 * "The winds speak of your victory. All Elona whispers your name."
