Akabo

No living creatures dare tread on Emerian land. For the undead master rules with an unseen hand.

Ruler of the Vile Isle Akabo Pech (a.k.a. The Dark Star)

"Akabo Pech is a man of single-minded purpose and drive. His ingenuity and magic aptitude has been an envy of many an academic. I hate to see a great student go forth to his death. But I doubt my words will change his mind in any way. He is returning to Emer to reconcile his past woes but I fear he will not return." ~ Archmage of the Thornton Institute of Arcane Arts ~ Year 1512

Personal history

Akabo was born the last of his bloodline. His mother died during childbirth and not long after his adolescence he fled the island in search of answers to his curse. As he fled, the cataclysm ripped through Emer and the Island was never the same again. This event led Akabo to train in the dark arts of necromancy. He delved into these magical teachings and became a master of his craft unrivaled by any in his tenacity and intelligence. He dreamed of returning to the place of his birth and would one day have his wish. He died at age 49 to a rot hound pack who feasted on his corpse. A year later he was revived during the great event of Eidamir that caused the dead to rise. He was reborn an undead mage of great power and the Island yielded all it could to restitch his essence back into his frail corpse. It has been 53 years since his rebirth and none shall challenge his claim over Emer,
