Personal history
The Lord first came to be after the destruction of Nobolia, The Lord stayed there a while, reasoning with what happened, believing the population to have brought it upon themselves, but he didn't feel satisfied nor did he find peace in what happened. It wasn't long until he would meet someone who wanted to assassinate the King of Nobolia. The ruins of the kingdom, not seeming to deter him. The Lord accepted the fight, and though the challenger was stronger than he anticipated, he still brought the fight to a quick victory for himself. He learnt that the man was a nameless diabolous, and the Lord spared his life in exchange for his loyalty, and conceived a plan to make humanity pay for their greed and corruption.
The Lord took some time master his new form, and then made his way to the kingdom of Asceroth to lay waste to it. He was met by a group of seven Sages, forewarned of the event by former Nobolian councilman and now refugee, Photrin. What ensued was one of the most historic battles in the history of Adremesis, The battle of Asceroth. The fighting was gruelling, with major damage being done to Asceroth and the surrounding area. The battle was eventually concluded when Ifris, aided by every Sage, cast a spell which opened a 'Doorway to the Void' using Asceroth's gates to open onto another realm, a spell no human had cast before. The Lord was ensnared by disfigured forms of the Sages appearing from the Void and was brought inside, unable to escape should the souls of the casters still survive.
The Lord was mortified by his defeat, bested by humans, and despite how much a tried and writhed, he was unable to escape his shackles and was imprisoned in a dark world of nothingness. He felt a strange energy in the Void, and used it to learn about the natural laws of Adremesis, eventually figuring out that there were elemental deities in Adremesis controlling the balance of the world, but not knowing specifically who or what they were. A few hundred years later, the Lord was able to use his soul, and the orb still on Adremesis as a way to connect and communicate with the Diabolous, using this to plot his return and orchestrate tragedies from the shadows. It was by this method, that the Lord ordered the termination of Barrodor and eradication of other diaboli.
Through the years, as the story of Gallaroth and the Lord of Chaos faded into obscurity, the Lord decided initiate the final phase of his plan, he split his soul into two small fragments that the Diabolous would infuse into two babies to create Vezran and Ivy, the two human weapons that would systematically murder the Sages. A few years later, the Lord's pride and need for a leader for his plan of The Anarchy, caused him to split his body and soul to create Xavier, as the ultimate human weapon. He entrusted Xavier to Luxrin , son of a Sage who defected to the Lord, ordering Luxrin to pave the way for Xavier's progression to lead the Anarchy.
In 342 AFB, The Lord made the Diabolous start the process of becoming Supreme Templar to control the Templarhood, and then militarise it to incite tension and create a large military force to govern Adremesis as a terror state. Almost everything went precisely according to his plan.
In 351 AFB, his return began, with the murder of Luxrin. Vezran co-ordinated the attacks on the Sages with the help of Ivy, the Diabolous fed the Templarhood deceit and lies, but Xavier's path was not followed as intended. Luxrin did not raise Xavier to be destined for darkness and domination, but instead, gave him a regular childhood with some high-level swordsmanship, so when Xavier set out to avenge Luxrin, his rage and anger was consoled by those that supported him, and he teamed up with some powerful allies to hunt down and kill Vezran, and eventually, learn about and kill the other two.
Despite the setback, Vezran and Ivy were successful in their task, though killed in the process, and the Diabolous was able to return the Lord to Adremesis despite Xavier and co's attempts to stop him. The Lord thrashed the party in a fight, his fury scattering the party across Adremesis, ready for him to form the Anarchy.
The Lord enslaved many beings, corrupted by gemstones infused by the souls of all the Sages to ever live. The Anarchy was swift in assuming control of Adremesis, and the Lord started work on artificially creating a Raxarian, and experiment that was eventually successful on his quest to achieve perfection. Eventually he got news that Thaedrin Eaglad II had survived the fight they had and had rid the Featherlands of their Anarch, this made him very concerned that Xavier had survived the fight as well. His suspicions were eventually confirmed, which made the Lord very paranoid, the vestiges of his humanity tore through him. Xavier, who he was now seeing as an apparition of Gallaroth was now leading the dissolution of the Anarchy, destroying the darkness and the Chaos, causing great turmoil in the Lord. Not only had he failed to kill human adversaries twice, but also failed to eliminate the human part of himself that was now driven by hatred towards him.
The Lord began to wonder where he went wrong, at which point did Xavier diverge away from the visions of the Lord, and why did it happen, distressing the Lord greatly. The Lord waited at Nobolia, after watching his empire collapse in on itself, the death of the Diabolous, and the unification of Adremesis against him. When Xavier and his party arrived, The Lord's ambition had faded, he was completely crushed by the reincarnation of Gallaroth that fell his new kingdom. All he wanted was vindication, and he fought ferociously for it, expelling all he had in him to kill those that destroyed what he created. In the end he was defeated, and his body crumbled away, unable to contain the soul, that granted him superhuman powers.

Mental Trauma
Despite transcending his form beyond human capabilities and abandoning his humanity, there are still vestiges of it and his past life that sometimes seep through.

The Lord eventually grows to wonder if Xavier is what Gallaroth could have been if events played out differently.
