The Shadow King

The Shadow King is a dark mage of Svel Nier who wants to rid the world of all races he deems unworthy, as well as to make the world a more orderly place and do away with all the silliness that plagues it in his eyes.

The Shadow King was banished from reality about 1000 years before the campaigns start, but has slowly been influencing this reality to gain followers to enact a spell to bring him back to this universe. The spell took several months of incantations and rituals and was so powerful that it caused erathquakes across Agrovar. It also started randomly teleporting things from the other reality into this reality, causing a high number of anomalies across the continent. Curiously however a lot of these anomalies, though confusing to people were rarely questioned outright.

Despite being outside of reality, he was still able to summon Yeth Hounds, allowing him to travel around Agrovar and keep an eye on what was happening in his abscence, as well as allowing him to converse with his followers.

The party arrived as his summoning was being completed and destroyed a number of rare magical crytals that were catalysts for the spell. However instead of this outright ending the spell, it instead caused some kind of magical overload and exploded. As the spell that was being cast was a teleportation spell, the dispersement of this energy caused those affected by the blast to be teleported randomly against their will.

He is an NPC.
