Yolande

Yolande the Elf Queen is a character in the Dungeons & Dragons franchise.

About[]

Yolande is the grey elven queen of the elven kingdom of Celene. Her honorifics include "Her Fey Majesty," the "Faerie Queen," the "Perfect Flower of Celene," and "Lady Rhalta of All Elvenkind". She lives in Enstad in the Elf Nation of Celene.

Originally from the Celene settlement of Bellmeadow, Princess Yolande was already an accomplished fighter and wizard when she ascended the throne in 361 CY.

Near the end of the 5th century CY, Triserron was ambushed and slain by orcs in a narrow pass in the Lortmils, just south of Courwood. The death of her beloved led Yolande to lead her nation and the Ulek States in the Hateful Wars of 498-510 CY, clearing the Lortmils of every orc, goblin, and other evil humanoids. For her role in the hateful Wars, the Grand Court of Celene awarded Yolande the Mantle of the Blue Moon, naming her "Lady Rhalta of All Elvenkind".

Valor's Call[]

According to the cover to the 2024 Dungeons & Dragons Player's Handbook, Yolande has joined Valor's Call, possibly replacing Ringlerun.

Yolande's Regal Presence spell[]

Yolande's regal presence is another spell connecting to the world of Greyhawk, in this case referencing the elven queen Yolande. This Concentration spell can majorly punish enemies that come within melee range, potentially offering the party a good deal of protection and opening up new strategic opportunities. Enemies that come within a 10-foot radius can be forced to make a Wisdom saving throw, taking 4d6 Psychic damage on a failure and half on a success.

Yolande's regal presence is an even more powerful control option than just the damage would indicate. Anyone who fails the save is knocked Prone, and the caster can push them up to 10 feet away at will. It should be a fun one to encourage smart positioning in Dungeons & Dragons, finishing off the list of new spells in the 2024 Player's Handbook.
