Template:Character Dhiren Baral is a human officer of the Consulate in Ghirapur on Kaladesh.

Description

A monolith of a man, stout and statuesque, with a face that seems to taunt those around it for being of lesser handsomeness. Tasked with persecuting crimals who are smuggling aether.

History

Secretly a mage with anti-fire magic of his own, he was tasked to persecute Chandra Nalaar for using fire magic. Even when the consuls deemed the search for the renegades too costly, he continued to hunt for them. He stabbed Kiran Nalaar in the stomach and torched Bunarat, the village where Chandra and her parents had been hiding. In his official story, Chandra was blamed for the fire and the death of her parents.[1] When Baral tried to execute Chandra at Ghirapur, the threat ignited her planeswalker's spark and she planeswalked to Regatha. [2] The ignition of her spark burned Baral's face, leaving him deformed and scarred and with an even more obsessive hatred of the Nalaars. After the event the Consulate demoted him from captain to lieutenant.

Baral started to torment the captured Pia Nalaar, telling her repeatedly over the course of many months that he had killed her daughter.[3] When Nissa, Chandra and Oviya Pashiri found the hidden prison where Baral worked, he managed to trap the three in a Deadlock Trap, intending to leave them to suffocate.[4]

Baral later helped Tezzeret steal the best inventions and abduct the best inventors from the Inventor's Fair.[5]
