Thaelor the Forgotten

Thaelor is the Guardian of Hearthglen and betrayer of Blodmir. Thaelor didn't always look freakish, during his childhood as a native he was taken by the Star Children in a raid on his village as they believed they were hiding power within the carts.

They broke his bones, then healed them, then broke his bones and healed them again, this was the cycle destined for Thaelor..

After centuries of torture beneath the Star Children's capital, he slowly became consumed by the madness and rage of his cruel cycle, before lashing out at his captors.

He was shunned by the Natives as they forbid any kind of the dark arts, after being shunned by his friends and family, he retreated to the Tomb of Goreil to find answers, but all he found nothing of use, nothing to help him revert the demonic appearance.

Soon after realizing that coming to the Tomb of Goreil was a mistake, he stole the Drakeheart stone from Blodmir's tomb and made haste to Hearthglen to imbue himself with it.

The Drakeheart stone would have allowed him to keep a human-like appearance for a short time, but it cracked as he used it, instead absorbing the souls that Blodmir kept.
