Ardata
Name: Ardata
Race: Elder God
Appearance:
"A young woman stepped into view from behind one of the pillars. Long hair the colours of dying flames, eyes the hue of beaten gold, dressed in flowing black silks" - (BH, UK Tpb, p.398)
Further Info: Queen of Spiders
"Fifty years, dear rivals, to conquer an entire continent. Oh perhaps Ardatha still held out - always late in sending tribute- but I ignored such petty gestures. She had fled did you know. The bitch." - Kallor - (MoI, UK TPB, pg 14)
Cotillion was gazing steadily at her, then he said, “You’re one of Ardata’s, aren’t you?”
She veered into a mass of spiders. - Cotillion to Mogora - (BH - )
“Ardata’s hand in this, I see. Healed by the Queen of Spiders -- you foster dangerous alliances, Guardian.” - Spite - (BH)
It can be presumed that she is an Elder God by her inclusion in the Errant's summons of all the remaining Elder Gods in Dust of Dreams:
"'You say you have summoned the others. Where are they?'
'Coming,' the Errant replied.
'How many?'
'Enough.'
Knuckles stared. 'Who defies you?'
. . .
'I am not defied by choice. Draconus - within Dragnipur it's not likely he hears anything. Grizzin Farl is, I think, dead. His corporeal flesh is no more.' He hesitated, then adding with a scowl, 'Ardata alone has managed to evade me, but she was never of much use anyway, was she?' - (DoD, US MMHB, p. 527)
