Ketla is an Imcando dwarf living in the Lassar Undercity, in the north-western building of the Residential District. During Desert Treasure II - The Fallen Empire, she helps the player create devices to stop the shadows from spreading beyond the undercity.

Towards the end of the quest, it is revealed that Ketla has actually been Sliske in disguise the entire time, with the real Ketla having died at some point in the past and turned into one of his wights as Ketla the Unworthy.

When the Fremenniks besieged Camdozaal during the Runecrafting Crusades in the early decades of the Fifth Age, Ketla sought shelter in the Lassar Undercity.^[1] She hid in a house in the Residential District, before Sliske took on her identity at an unknown point in time.^[2]

Trivia

There is a skeleton on the third floor of Ketla's house, whose examine text is "Smaller than the average skeleton." It is implied that this is the remains of the real Ketla.

Because, to be honest, there isn't one. The whole point of it is that you don't know when he replaces them. I've already seen so many speculations about when it might have happened - it’s very much part of it, it’s always open to interpretation.""
