*DM Notes:

Vasilika is a flesh golem constructed by The Abbot with the intention of creating an immortal vessel for the soul of Tatyana Ivanova Ivanova. The Abbot hopes that, by doing so, he can break the curse that dooms Tatyana Ivanova to always die before she reaches her twenty-fifth nameday.

Vasilika's body is pieced together from body parts of the humans who have sought The Abbot's services. Her right arm is that of Burgomistress Anja Krezkova, given in exchange for the resurrection of her son, Ilya. Her left arm is that of Lilluth Chaemaer.

Lilluth came to trade her arm when she, Fate, Stellaluna, Solaris, Ezmerelda d'Avenir, and Ireena Kolyana visited the Abbey of St. Markovia, hoping to find a place that Ireena would be safe from the clutches of Strahd von Zarovich  and hoping also to convince The Abbot to resurrect the wereraven Dagmara Martikov. Upon realizing that Ireena had the soul of Tatyana Ivanova, The Abbot sought to keep her at the Abbey, hoping to transfer her soul into Vasilika. Lilluth made a bargain with The Abbot, exchanging her arm for Ireena's free passage.
