Carla Maindeglace (born 1048 AE) is an Ascalonian living in Elona. She is the younger sister of Phileas Maindeglace. She is brash and easily upset, but dedicates herself fervently to the task at hand.

Carla grew up on the east side of Ascalon. At quite an early age she became jealous of the attention her brother got from her parents, while she was comparitively ignored. This caused her to develop a great dislike of her family, and it was because of this that she left home in 1066 AE, with enough money to buy passage over the Shiverpeaks and a trip across the Sea of Sorrows on a merchant vessel. Carla disembarked at the ship's destination in Istan. Seeking a way to outperform her brother, she discovered the Order of the Sunspears and decided to enlist for combat training. She chose to study the native dervish discipline, and was assigned to train under First Spear Keima Kirisu. Her dedication allowed her to rise quickly through the ranks, and by 1075 AE she was a commander, under then-General Keima.

In 1075 AE, Carla was one of the Sunspears investigating Tahlkora's allegations against Warmarshal Varesh and General Kahyet, responsible for the discovery of their plans to bring Nightfall. She was later reunited with her brother Phileas when Spearmarshal Kormir recruited him among other foreign heroes, and over time her resentment of him faded and she grew to see him more as a person than as a rival. Just before the assault on Gandara, Carla was promoted to the rank of General, which she held throughout the subsequent war despite becoming second-in-command when Keima was elevated to Acting Spearmarshal after Kormir's disappearance. After Abaddon's defeat and Keima's formal inauguration as Spearmarshal, Carla was elevated to the position of Raidmarshal.

In 1078 AE, during a diplomatic visit to Kryta, Carla investigated a series of earthquakes and became trapped beneath Lion's Arch along with several of her old allies. She subsequently met Ogden Stonehealer and Vekk, and became embroiled in the battle against the Destroyers. She was part of the attack squad sent to fight the Great Destroyer. Afterwards, she returned to Elona.

Dialogue[edit]

Nightfall[edit]

Istan towns and outposts
"I am Commander Carla Maindeglace. I'm under orders to make myself available to join short-handed patrols. My scythe is yours if you need it, but make it quick. I need to coordinate my forces against the Corsairs."
Kourna towns and outposts
"That battle at Gandara was a disaster. Varesh needs to pay for what she's done. I would join you if you're heading out. I'd like to give those Kournan dogs a taste of Grenth's justice."
Vabbi towns and outposts
"I should have stayed in Kourna. These matters of politics and diplomacy are not my forte. I prefer a more tangible challenge."
Desolation towns and outposts
"We should get moving. The sooner we catch Varesh, the sooner we can get out of these wastes. The sulfur burns my nostrils."
Realm of Torment towns and outposts
"I never thought it would come to this. The torturous realm of the mad god itself. Looks like we'll have to find out whether a god can die..."
Throne of Secrets
"It's finally over. Abaddon has met his rightful fate."

Eye of the North[edit]

Far Shiverpeaks towns and outposts
"These Norn are so frustrating. Why can't they understand the danger we're in?"
Tarnished Coast towns and outposts
"I'd much rather be giving the Charr a piece of my mind than hanging around these bickering little crackpots, but the Spearmarshal ordered me to lend my aid to this side of the search for allies, so let's get on with it."
Central Transfer Chamber
"That Great Destroyer won't know what hit it."
Epilogue
"Celebrations aren't really my scene. I prefer the battlefield. Soon we can return to Elona, though, and there's a certain undead lord I've been waiting to introduce my scythe to..."

Quotes[edit]

Nightfall[edit]

Istan
"It wasn't easy coming into the Order as a foreigner. I've worked long and hard to get where I am."
"Keep moving, we have a job to do."
"There are other matters craving my attention, and we are wasting time standing around."
Kourna
"I fail to see what we could be accomplishing by standing out in the open in enemy territory."
"That Varesh...I swear I'll have her on the blade of my scythe no matter what it takes!"
"What on Tyria is Phileas doing here? I left Ascalon to get away from him, and now he shows up claiming to be a world-renowned hero? It's...it's not fair!"
Vabbi
"Diplomacy again? I should have stayed at the Sanctuary."
"Varesh Ossa isn't standing idle. Neither should we."
"We're wasting our time here. These princes clearly don't care one bit about our fight."
The Desolation
"Empty, desolate sands. A stark reminder of what will happen if Varesh gets her way."
"Palawa Joko will have to wait. He may be the Scourge of Vabbi, but we have bigger problems to contend with."
"We're so close. Soon Varesh will pay for what she's done...and I hope we have the luxury to make it slow."
Realm of Torment
"Abaddon has been away from Tyria for too long if he thinks he can make us give up hope."
"I never thought my brother and I would be side-by-side at the end of the world. Perhaps I misjudged him after all."
"So the Realm of Torment thinks it can open up and swallow us whole? Well, it's going to choke on me."

Eye of the North[edit]

Far Shiverpeaks
"I may have run away from Ascalon, but that doesn't mean I'll forgive the Charr for destroying it."
"The Norn haven't seen half of what I've stood up to. They should be looking up to me...figuratively speaking, of course."
"You try pirhouetting in ankle-deep snow."
Tarnished Coast
"I hate this jungle. The air is too thick, I can't tell which noises are threatening, and there are plants getting in the way everywhere I turn. At least I brought my own machete to deal with that last part."
"I'm not sure what to make of the Destroyers. Their attacks mostly seem completely random, but sometimes they seem like intuitive tacticians...as if they don't even need to communicate."
"These asura really rub me the wrong way. Sometimes I feel I'd sever their heads from their bodies if they stood a little higher off the ground."

Battle quotes[edit]

"Grenth's justice is upon you!"
"Don't torture yourself. That's my job."
"I'd like to see Phileas do this."
"I don't have time for games."
"If you're counting on me to blink, you're making a deadly mistake!"
"I take no joy in slaughtering you, but you have forced my hand."
"Justice will be swift. Justice will be painful."
"No more awkward diplomacy or politics. Today, I get to let my scythe do the talking."
"Off with your head!"
"There's no happy ending. Not for you, anyway."

Trivia[edit]

  • Carla is named after the character General Kala of the 1980 film Flash Gordon.
