Hellrider Paladin

The Hellrider Paladin is a summonable ally during ⁠Confront the Elder Brain, if  Zevlor survives Act One and Act Two.

Involvement

The Hellrider Paladin is possibly an exile from ⁠Elturel who was discarded by the city following their descent into Avernus, due to his tiefling heritage, and despite his service as a Hellrider.

The Hellrider Paladin can be summoned with the  Gather Your Allies variant  Hellrider Platoon if  Zevlor has been rescued throughout both Act One and Act Two, and joins the party as an ally in ⁠Gather Your Allies.
