Keris Mawl is a notorious figure in Cultrek’s history, known for dark pursuits in necromancy and heinous crimes. Born to a merchant and a cleric, Mawl’s early fascination with the afterlife led him to explore obscure cults and eventually wizardry at Arcandius Cultrekari. Under the tutelage of Teari Garsprey, he became proficient in necromancy and joined The Society of the Black Cloth, a guild of morticians with a sinister side. Mawl’s experiments on unwilling subjects, often the impoverished, revealed his disregard for human life. His departure from the city in 1235 IC marked the beginning of a spree of murders, culminating in his arrest and conviction in 1244 IC for the deaths of seventeen followers of Medres. A dramatic escape from execution only added to his infamy, with sightings reported a decade later, suggesting his dark legacy endures.
