He Who Was is a Shadar-Kai NPC found in the Ruined Battlefield at X: 128 Y: 110 who gives the quest Punish the Wicked. He has a Raven companion.
Story
As a Shadar-Kai, He Who Was is a servant of the Raven Queen - a mysterious deity from the Shadowfell. Shadar-Kai were elves once, until they were trapped in the Shadowfell and transformed. His patron deity, The Raven Queen is obsessed with collecting and observing mementos and fragments of memories and essences and the Shadar-Kai Gloom Weavers scour out memories of tragedies that might please their deity. Like all shadar-kai and his queen, he was supposed to be cold and emotionless, but the Shadow Curse corrupted him and his Raven, making him take pleasure in tormenting people while collecting their memories.
He Who Was has a ritual circle set up to use Speak with Dead on a corpse of a woman called Madeline. He initially tells the party to clear off, but his white Raven suggests they might be able to help. He explains that the dead woman was a murderer. He asks the party to find Madeline's Ledger at the tavern she worked in and bring it back.
If the party gives the ledger over to He Who Was, he is able to channel the spirit of Madeline in his body. The party can ask Madeline about the details of what happened.
If the party makes Madeline stab herself once, or shame her for being a coward, He Who Was is satisfied. If the party attempts to forgive her, or make her stab herself a second time, he becomes enraged and attacks the party. Each stabbing inflicts 5 damage which persists into combat.
