Jour
The cloud giant Necro-king hailing from modern day Mountaine Federation. He used the emerging magic school of necromancy to raise armies of the dead to battle dragons to take back his home, and to curry favor with Annam, the All-Father. Eventually this power turned sour inside and corrupted him like a disease to the point where he wished to conquer the entire world.
This gained the attention of Annam, who eagerly waited to see his distant child's abilities in full force. Jour experienced victory after victory until he was defeated and the tides turned against him. The favor began to wane from Annam and Jour felt it. In a moment of rashness, he extended himself too far and was cut off and subsequently cut up. Not many records exist of his defeat, but it is said his right-hand war councilor and general, Woundmaker, was his eventual downfall, though no one can attest to it. Many other species claim theirs was the final blow that sealed his fate.
Jour is remembered in mythical tales and used as warnings of overreach of power or of the dangers of magic or of the corrupting nature of necromancy. Either way, Jour has lived on, true to his title of Necro-king.
