Bozak is an undead fungal kraul and servant of Mazirek, part of the Golgari Swarm on the plane of Ravnica.

Description

Bozak was a young kraul with a determined demeanor, marked by his slender frame and iridescent wings that he strummed to express emotions, although one of his wings was decrepit, rendering him unable to fly properly. His attire consisted of a bronzed head plate and a modest chest plate, simple yet functional for his tasks in the Golgari undercity. Bozak's dedication to his craft was evident in his meticulous approach to harvesting rare mushrooms, like the prized bird's nest fungus and the deadly devouring angel.

History

During a crucial competition to secure an apprenticeship with a new lich, Bozak navigated through treacherous marshlands and encountered various challenges, from deadly woodwraiths to fierce mossdogs. Despite these obstacles, he persevered with the help of his fellow competitors, particularly Limin and Kata, forming temporary alliances to survive the competition. In a tense race to deliver the required mushroom specimens to the lich, Bozak he faced off against the remaining competitors and ultimately emerged victorious alongside Zegodonis.

As the lich's apprentice, Bozak became frustrated with his menial tasks like tending to the undead and bossing around difficult fungal drudges, yearning to learn more about necromancy. He would often eavesdrop on the lich's spells to educate himself.

During the lich's absence, Bozak discovered a deadly mushroom specimen used in a plot against Vraska, his guildmaster. He decided to intervene and warn Vraska by causing a distraction in the lich's sanctum and then making his way to the Hanging Keep where Vraska was giving a speech. In an attempt to prevent further chaos and incrimination, he swallowed the mushroom to neutralize its effects, then fled, resulting in a dramatic fall from the Hanging Keep.

After surviving the fall but with serious injuries, Bozae found himself changed, with fungal growths affecting his body and mind. He encountered Mazirek, a prominent figure in his guild, and seemed to accept a new role under his influence as an undead fungal servant.
