<h3>At a Glance</h3>
<p><b>Kezef</b> is an &#8220;elder evil&#8221; at least as old as Toril.  It roams the <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/05/23/outer-planes/" title="The Outer Planes">Outer Planes</a>.</p>
<p>Following the <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/01/30/time-of-troubles/" title="The Time of Troubles">Time of Troubles</a>, Kezef sometimes stalks the followers of <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2012/02/13/mask/" title="Mask">Mask</a> and destroys relics of his church in an effort to draw the god out of hiding.  <a href="https://xaeyruudh.wordpress.com/2014/09/25/houndsbane/" title="Houndsbane">Houndsbane</a> is apparently an effective means of hiding from Kezef.</p>
