AZARIEL

Lesser God

Angel of Darkness, Fallen Prince, Lord of Lies.

AL: Neutral Evil
WAL: Any Evil
AoC: Corruption
Sym: Black Feathered Wings

Azariel was once a Solar bound to Anduiras, but he fell from grace out of envy for Haelyn's ascension to godhood. He acquired godly powers thanks to the joined efforts of Belinik and Kriesha, who empowered him to earn an ally against the other Powers.

Azariel is still a young god, and likes to travel Cerilia in the guise of a foreign prince with the powers of a 18th-level Necromancer, to tempt mortals to forsake their vows and fall from grace. When enraged, he assumes the form of the Angel of Darkness, with all the powers of an evil Solar.

AZARIEL'S PRIESTHOOD

Priests of Azariel hide among other priesthoods, often pretending to be priests of Healyn. They seek to corrupt the naive and pure, and turn them to the worship of their dark god.

The Warlock (Dead)

Legend claims that this dark sorcerer is the son of Gorgon, and has the power to turn into a Shadow-wyrm. He certainly possesses vast magical powers, and seems to command the shadows themselves. He has allied with Ghuralli to stop the Brotherhood of the Wolf, and to bring retribution to the Gorgon.

Akwest Babasak (Dead)

Beholder

Akwest's lair is deep underground, but not too far from the Rocksplitter Clan's holdings. The Heroes promised him a floating crystal tower, in exchange for safe passage through its domain, but were not able to keep their oath. The aberration is now plotting revenge.

Ghuralli (Dead)

Male Awnshegh

Rumor has it, Ghuralli gained his gleaming, black metal body as the result of contact with a baatezu imprisoned somewhere in southern Lluabraight. The incident also caused his powers as a fledgling awshegh to emerge. The former orog chieftain has begun his own quest for empire in his old stomping grounds.
