Kas the Destroyer, also known as Kas the Bloody-Handed, was the vampire darklord of Tovag.[1]
Kas became a vampire with the help of Vecna and through a ritual involving The Silver Mask of Kas. Menadora Zarovan claims that any other stories regarding the origin of his vampirism are lies spread by The Cult of Vecna.[2]
Kas wielded in combat the Sword of Kas, a very ill-advised gift from Vecna. Kas served Vecna as his chief general. Kas turned upon his master and attempted to destroy the lich with the assistance of the sword. Vecna was irreparably maimed and the Hand of Vecna and the Eye of Vecna were brought into existence.
When the Dark Powers seized Vecna they also seized Kas that the latter might taunt and torment, and possibly also distract, the former. It is unclear what became of Kas's domain after Vecna escaped the Land of Mists as described in Die Vecna Die.
In Dragon Magazine #341, Kas is given as a vestige for the binder class, indicating that he exists only as a spirit trapped outside of reality. But in Open Grave: Secrets of the Undead, Kas is given 4th Edition stats as a normal "unliving" vampire. More recently, "Traders in Gloomwrought claim that Kas now rules a kingdom of vampires somewhere in the Shadowfell."[3]
