Bezzkerron

In the age known as "The Long Years Past" the lich Bezzkerron was one of Dagrazt's chief generals.  As he terrorized the lands of south eastern Malatoria, Bezzkerron was gifted two powerful artifacts for his service to Dagrazt and a Demon Prince.  These were the Star of Ruin and the Grim Facade.  With these two magic items at his command Bezzkerron helped create the City of Dal-Takar and from this base of operations wreaked sorrow and famine upon the land for many years.
After the loss of countless generations of free folk, a group of powerful heroes, led by Astaurus, was able to defeat Bezzkerron, break his enchanted artifacts, and seal Dal-Takar away from the rest of the land with a powerful magic barrier, making the lands safe once more.
