Rizzen is a member of the noble House Do'Vrinn and son of Matron Do'Vrinn. He is a rogue and an assassin, living in Maeralssin in the Underdark. The Princess first encounters him in the Maeralssin Market interested in purchasing slaves. Rizzen has two sisters, Talice and Akordia, both of whom (due to being female) hold higher rank in his House and the drow society in general. House Do'Vrinn and House Noqut'tar are bitter rivals.
