Shala

Shala is a powerful witch whom the Apprentice first meets in the tower of the Crow-People. As the Apprentice soon discovers, the Crow-People call Shala "master", and have been searching the Great Southern Wastes for the Apprentice on Shala's orders, in order to induct her into Shala's coven.

Shala wears a black glove over her right hand. This conceals a skeletal appendage that has terrifying life-draining abilities.

She rides a scuttlepede named Skednan.

Shala has a sister who is also a witch, although we don't yet know her name.
