Darkvision

A monster with darkvision can see perfectly well in areas of darkness and dim light, though such vision is in black and white only. Some forms of magical darkness, such as a 4th-level Darkness spell, block normal darkvision. A monster with Greater Darkvision, however, can see through even these forms of magical darkness.

Light Blindness

When first exposed to bright light, the monster is Blinded until the end of its next turn. After this exposure, light doesn't blind the monster again until after it spends 1 hour in darkness. However, as long as the monster is in an area of bright light, it's Dazzled.

At-Will Spells

The monster can cast its at-will spells any number of times without using up spell slots.

Quara will likely become an ally of the heroes, as she knows useful partners when she sees them. She's interested in avenging her father and sister, but she knows that whatever goal her father was pursuing with the Ochre Fulcrum Lens could prove critical in freeing Yldaris from Belcorra's control forever. She has learned that the ochre lens was only one of three lenses that Belcorra entrusted to allies in the region centuries ago, and she sets the heroes on the trail of recovering them and finding out more. The most important lead Quara provides to the heroes is that her father was headed toward an ancient vault at the edge of the lake, so the heroes can find out more at that location.

The heroes might see drow as enemies and assault Yldaris. In this case, Quara does her best to protect her people, relying on the shootist training that still lingers in her quick fingers. She likely won't trust the heroes with any information after such aggressions, but they might find some clues in her quarters.
