Ioulaum
The man who stopped death, the emerald eye, the eternal lord. These are all titles held by the once great mage of the Olic empire Ioulaum. One of the mages who held an enclave in the flying cities before the Cladeon. He created his enclave when he was 27, from there he continued to study the arcane arts. After he studied in the flying cities of the Olic empire he worked on his apex spell, the culmination was ready to be cast. Ioulaum longevity. With it ready he cast it and felt the power grow within him as his life was elongated by 10’00 years or more…
He had killed one person for every year of life he had gained, decimating his enclave and leaving himself with no one. He was alone, he was ageless. After mourning for a brief period of time he came to a realization that he was now able to continue his studies and in his eternal time he realized that he had made his soul immortal but not his body. In his despair he flew his city into the land below hoping that it may kill him but he survived.
Fraught by the ravages of time his body began to decay which is when he attached his soul to a variety of talismans and formed himself into a true arch lich. It was at this point he changed, growing more powerful and realizing that he gave himself a gift, for the years he had gained he could do so much more than those who had died with their lone single year. With this he began to form his empire, the Dun Mar empire. Built in the idea that in a world without death, you’ll never lose a loved one, never have to grieve and always be able to learn.
Now his soul remains attached to those trinkets and taismims he made as his true form was destroyed in the Cladeon.
