Ferrix is the feminine counterpart to her brother
Balador , the Mother Tigress to his Father Bear. Some myths say that Balador and Ferrix are tahe complements of the primordial shadow-archetype ofDaragor andEshebala ; together, the archetypal foursome have some profound fate at the end of all things.Ferrix and Balador were formally the servants of a great nature/druidic deity (in the
World of Greyhawk , this was probablyObad-hai orBeory ). Balador was freed in return for his loyal service, but refused to accept this boon unless Ferrix was freed as well. Although Ferrix had not earned this boon, she was granted it for Balador's sake.Realm
Ferrix can be found wandering the plane of the
Beastlands , but has no permanent realm there. She does have a lair in theCat Lord 's Prowl in the layer of Brux.Dogma
Ferrix is very intelligent but not wise, the exact opposite of her brother Balador. She seeks knowledge for its own sake; because of her lack of wisdom, she does not distinguish between useful knowledge and trivia. She is vain and playful, and can be cruel.
