Koshchey's Men was a band of mercenaries; humans, vrans, werebbubbs and elves under the leadership of the ex-communicated druid, Fregenal with whom they terrorized settlements in the vicinity of the Klamat pass. The group's name comes from the "koshchey", a monster created by Fregenal and set upon some merchant caravans. One of the Koshchey's Men was the werebbubb, Kehl. He opposed Fregenal and helped Visenna and Korin kill the koshchey the former druid had conjured. However, Kehl perished due to injuries he sustained in the battle.
