Slarkareth

Slarkareth is the former leader of the Cult of the Kraken, and a mentor for Nine-Fingers.
Before he went missing, presumed dead, Slarkareth lead the Cult of the Kraken with his immense charisma and quick-witted thinking. In his absence, leadership of the cult has passed to an individual known as Little Squid.
Recently, Nine-Fingers has begun to see Slarkareth in his dreams. While coccooned in a mess of deep, purple tentacles, Slarkareth speaks to him, urging him to take control and stop being a pawn for everyone else to abuse. He encourages Nine-Fingers to adapt to a role of leadership within the group of heroes.
