Koshei the Deathless

Koshei the Deathless



Before becoming a lich, Koshei was a great necromancer leader. His hordes were always prepared for battle and no one ever was able to defeat him. All that entered his way were destroyed, smashed and ruthlessly slaughtered. His legs were weak in physical strength, so by using hundreds of mystic turbans and blue robes, he was able to forge the mighty blue legs. They were rather light and had great defense. He then got an apprentice, Necropharus.



After he taught everything he knew to such a lad, the apprentice overthrew him and Koshei was defeated for the first time. Not standing the pressure, he planned on taking his hordes to fortificate Drefia. When he was close, passing by the desert, the city was destroyed by the djinn's wrath and Koshei, assuming the undead had died in Drefia, he rushed to the east and opened a hole in a small mountain and hid himself in the deepest catacombs... Enraged with his defeat, he traded his soul to become an immortal lich, and casted a spell that revived him after his death. Later, he made a ritual to imprison the only thing he had able to kill him: His amulet. By casting this ritual, the amulet scattered through the desert... Forever forgotten... Forever...
