Hello, I really need the little info on these ladies. They are in Danigau and the Vampire's Hold, if memory serves and I need the level, blood and anything else there is. I doubt there is anything much on them, since they are a rather small power.

Thanks in advance :):)

We can glean a few things here and there, and the combination may yet yield
some further implications. The BoP tells us that temples of Kriesha in
Brecht lands "seem to have a significant influence in local mercantile
matters." The BoP also offers the possibility that the White Witch learned
her famed financial skill in the regions faithful to the White Hand. We
also know that though the White Hand is small, its power is extended by
control (direct, indirect, or subversive) of someone elses guild holdings.
"The priestesses take a cut of the profits such guilds earn, which they use
to expand their influence."

This does not neccesarily mean expanding the temple holdings, but by buying
friends. "The church of Kriesha knows that wealth is power. Its members
are aware of the measures that other people will take in order to gain
wealth; as a result these `others` become more pliable to the whims of the
Winter Witch`s church. A few coins spread judiciously can buy the loyalty
of many such `friends`."

Priestesses of Kriesha are not interested in wealth for its own sake, but as
a means to buy people. They buy information, cause underlings to betray
their masters, and purchase supplies for whatever purposes the White Hand
has in mind. Priestesses are trained as financial and commercial
professionals early on in their service. I would suspect many priestesses
of the White Hand are in fact multi-classed cleric/guilders.

There is nothing about them in HotGB, not even details on their leader.
