Fan Casting Alysia in Dungeons & Dragons: The Hand of Chaos

The High Priestess of a secret Cuthbertine monastery hidden in the Griff Mountains, Alysia is a woman of profound faith, iron authority, and hidden, complicated depths. A battle-hardened warrior who commands a fortress of Guardians and rides a giant Roc into combat, she has dedicated her life to protecting the Vault that contains the Eye of Vecna, a sacred duty she will uphold at any cost—including threatening to wipe Hightower's memories or kill him. She and Hightower share a passionate, regrettable history from the night before she took her holy vows, a past she has buried beneath layers of duty and pragmatic resolve. Her stern, regal exterior masks a soulful, wounded heart that still flickers with a dangerous, lingering affection for the rogue who broke it. She is the film's moral anchor and Hightower's most formidable, complicated ally.
