Elcan (El-Kan)
Lord Elcan (a.k.a. The Shadow Harbinger)
Elcan, veiled in a foreboding transformation, bore a semblance to his former self, Elcant, with an eerie visage. His physicality, resembling Elcant's, now shrouded behind a black, pointed helmet, masked his features, save for the piercing red glow of his eyes that seeped through its darkness. His transformation into the corrupted necromancer unraveled a harrowing saga marked by deeds that veered drastically from his former self. His ruthless path was etched with appalling feats: the brutal demise of King Elliott, the cataclysmic destruction of Arium, and the consequential assumption of the apprentice role under Abraxas' sway. Loyalty bound him unconditionally to Nentryl, shunning any semblance of the merchant whose choices were morally complex. Elcan embodied a stark contrast to Elcant's striving for the greater good; a merciless harbinger of destruction, adherent solely to Abraxas' commands, eclipsing any vestige of his former self in a haunting transformation.
Physical Description
Special abilities
Embracing the dark arts of Necromancy, Elcan wielded a formidable mastery over the powers of death and decay. This sorcery augmented his ability to wield and command the forces of the undead, enabling catastrophic displays of power at Abraxas' command.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Elcan's history as the corrupted version of Elcant embodies a tragic divergence. Before the Dark War, he shared similar origins with Elcant, harboring aspirations for merchant fame and displaying no inclination towards malevolence. During the war, under Abraxas' pernicious influence, Elcan's descent into corruption unfurled an abyssal transformation. The once-promising merchant became a relentless agent of destruction, succumbing entirely to the manipulation and control exerted by Abraxas.
Accomplishments & Achievements
Elcan's achievements, if they can be labeled as such, were shrouded in the shadows of malevolence. His ruthless actions included the assassination of King Elliott, plunging Arium into chaos and ruin. His unwavering servitude to Abraxas dictated a series of catastrophic events, culminating in the annihilation of anything that opposed the will of his malevolent master.
Morality & Philosophy
The concept of morality held no place in Elcan's corrupted existence. Once driven by aspirations for greatness and moral complexities, he now embodied unrelenting malevolence, adhering solely to Abraxas' whims. His moral compass was obliterated, replaced by a single-minded devotion to serve Abraxas at any cost.
Personality Characteristics
Motivation
Elcan's motivations devolved into a singular obsession: absolute and unwavering loyalty to Abraxas. This allegiance superseded any vestiges of his former motivations, consumed entirely by servitude to the dark entity, leaving behind his former aspirations and moral quandaries.
Virtues & Personality perks
His corruption forged a being devoid of compassion or remorse, rendering him ruthlessly efficient in executing Abraxas' malevolent directives. Cunning and relentless, he acted as a relentless instrument of destruction, carrying out his master's will without hesitation.
Vices & Personality flaws
Elcan's downfall, if any, lay hidden beneath his impenetrable allegiance to Abraxas. However, it's notable that his defeat by Albion during the final confrontation was solely due to the intervention of the Angelic Alliance.
