Flame-Herald Bahsei

Bahsei before she transforms

Flame-Herald Bahsei is a Naga warrior-mage and member of the Sul-Xan tribe who can be found atop the Xanmeer Pinnacle in Rockgrove. She is the second boss of the trial. She is the leader of the forces that attacked Rockgrove.

Bahsei is a worshipper of Mehrunes Dagon and has opened an Oblivion Gate in an effort to summon Xalvakka to Tamriel. She has used her magic to harvest the souls of all who have died in the attack on the settlement, to be sacrificed to Xalvakka. When you confront her, she will transform into a Bone Goliath before the fight starts.
