Details
Race Human
Birthplace Shandalar
Lifetime Unknown

Azar was a wizard from Shandalar.[1]

History

He was an apprentice of Kenan Sahrmal and fought Lim-Dûl after Sahrmal had defeated Tevesh Szat and Leshrac. Lim-Dûl managed to take control of his opponent's body and used it to start a war on Shandalar. He was eventually defeated and imprisoned in an artifact used to power the veil of Shandalar.

The empty body of Azar, however, had been exposed to too much magic. Though it was without a soul, it rose on its own and took the name Lichlord Skavius Slan. Then it took command of the Black Guild and ruled for ages, even among the passing of the other Guildlords.

Trivia

While the character is named Azar on the Astral card from the Microprose videogame, the manual of the game calls the wizard "Azaar".[1]
