Harriett Kane, also known as the The Accuser and formerly known as Harriet of the Crimson Shade, is a venthyr located in Sinfall in Revendreth. She is the Harvester of Pride, bearer of the  [Medallion of Pride], which gives her control over the Ceremony Ward, thus has authority over the Halls of Atonement and is a member of the Court of Harvesters. The first of the Court of Harvesters to openly oppose Sire Denathrius, the player initially fights to thwart her rebellion during the Revendreth storyline. As the story progresses and Denathrius' treachery comes to light, she becomes one of the adventurer's most important allies in Revendreth. The Accuser is coldhearted and ruthless, yet unflinchingly loyal to the venthyr's purpose of punishing the wicked. As such, she despises how Denathrius' pride has corrupted his original mission.

Biography

Mortal life

Her name was once Harriett the Crimson Shade. According to her sinstone, Harriett murdered countless innocents and orchestrated the deaths of even more, all for personal profit. She was also apparently misled into murdering her own child daughter, Camille. Despite all the other murders she committed, this act would be the one sin she would end up regretting well into her afterlife.[1] It is unknown when she became the Harvester of Pride, or what happened to the previous one.

Revendreth Storyline

When the Maw Walker first meets with Sire Denathrius to request anima to aid in the defense of the Shadowlands, he asks that they help end the rebellion in Revendreth before any deals are made.[2] The adventurer is dispatched to seize the Halls of Atonement along with Echelon the stoneborn and the Lord Chamberlain. After dispatching the troops and inquisitors protecting her sinstone, the trio face off against the Accuser with her sinstone in-hand.[3] Despite reading off her sins, it has no effect as the Accuser feels no remorse for the acts. Eventually, the Lord Chamberlain reads the final sin and uses his amulet to bring an image of the Accuser's mortal daughter Camille to life, shaking the Accuser to her core. This allows him to defeat and capture her.[4]

The Accuser is brought in a cage before Denathrius, who denounces her and sentences her to be hunted by The Fearstalker until humbled. The Accuser is unshaken, stating that Denathrius, once a true lord of fear, is now defying the will of Revendreth. She is then brought to the Grove of Terror to await being hunted.[5]

When the Fearstalker and the Maw Walker corner her, the Accuser sends Fearstalker away with a teleportation mirror. Granting the adventurer the power of [Door of Shadows], she shows them the true scope of Denathrius' madness, being the cause of the anima drought and keeping it all stored in Castle Nathria.[6] As Denathrius notices the two, he orders his guards after them. Now on the run, the adventurer joins the Accuser and General Draven in the resistance. Luring the Fearstalker and her hopebreakers to the Dredhollow lodge, she uses a trap to lure a swarm of Devourers to consume the hopebreakers, with the Fearstalker being finished off shortly afterward. The Accuser then claimed Fearstalker's amulet[7] and sends the adventurer to the Ember Ward to seek Theotar for clues to the location of the true leader of the rebellion: Prince Renathal.[8]

After reclaiming Sinfall, Theotar, Draven, and Accuser make it their primary base. The adventurer eventually returns from the Maw with both the prince and the the Curator in tow.[9] With their forces assembled, they launch a united assault on Castle Nathria. The rebellion cuts a swath through the Master's venthyr and stoneborn forces, seizing all the anima they can. As they charge Denathrius, a stoneborn grabs the Accuser and flies off, leaving the prince to face Denathrius on his own. She returns in time to witness Denathrius' plan come to fruition: Sending all the purloined anima into the Maw to empower his true master: The Jailer.[10] The rebellion then falls back to regroup at Sinfall.

Venthyr Campaign

Upon deciding to join the Venthyr Covenant, the Harvesters that remain decide to empower the Maw Walker with their gift, after the Maw Walker takes the Oath of the Harvesters before them, including the Accuser.[11][12]

The Maw Walker is directed by Prince Renathal to enter the Halls of Atonement and defeat the Lord Chamberlain, seizing the Medallion of Pride.[13]

During the siege upon Castle Nathria, the soul of Kael'thas Sunstrider is rescued and placed under the direct care of the Accuser[14][15] as his soul was on the verge of destruction due to burdening him with the sins of others through his sinstone.[16] After instructing him to release his anima to help awaken various stoneborn loyal to the Prince,[17] the Accuser successfully extracts the sins Denathrius burdened upon his soul.[18] Thanks to the efforts of Kael'thas and the Maw Walker, a conspiracy between Kel'Thuzad, the Tithelord, and House Blackbale was revealed, which the Accuser goes to inform Prince Renathal while the Maw Walker and Kael'thas continue investigating.[19][20][21][22]

After General Draven recovered the Medallion of Dominion, Denathrius whispers to Prince Renathal through it, tempting him to join him again. The Accuser reminds Renathal of the things Denathrius has done, solidifying Renathal's will against Denathrius and convincing him that Revendreth will be ruled by the Court of Harvesters in unison.[23]
