Jorgan Hage was an Aerathi berserker from Dominaria.[1] He served in the kentsu, first as the second in command, later as general.
Description
Jorgan Hage was General Marhault Elsdragon's second-in-command and by all accounts both a fierce warrior and an effective battlefield leader. He was of low birth, from the wild and bloodthirsty Aerathi tribe. Hage wore his long red hair berserker-style, flowing out loose around his shoulders. A thin metal diadem kept it clear of his eyes. Except for this Aerathi affectation, he wore the standard armor and uniform of an elite kentsu officer.[1]
Jorgan Hage had rust-colored eyes. He had access to red magic and could cast firebolts from his fingers. However, after being magically corrupted by Ramses Overdark, he also had access to black magic, something that Marhault Elsdragon noted with concern.[2]
History
During the Madara-Edemi War, Hage was infuriated when Ramses Overdark remarked that the kentsu had fallen deeply to let barbarians like the Ærathi in its ranks. He ambushed him, but the assassin proved too powerful. Overdark infused Hage with black mana, making the berserker his minion, but erased all knowledge of their encounter from Hage's mind.
For a while Overdark let Hage continue as normal, fighting as Marhault Elsdragon's second in command. When Elsdragon had no further purpose in Overdark's plans, he had Hage decapitate the general and claim the title. Thus Overdark had replaced a general loyal to the emperor with a general loyal to himself.
Hage quickly promoted his tribesmen to commanders and marshals, but after a gigantic defeat on Argenti, he was called back to defend the Imperial Shrine in which Overdark was stationed. When Tetsuo Umezawa showed up, declaring he wanted vengeance on Overdark, Jorgan had his army attack the lone warrior, but Tetsuo called down a meteor shower that killed everyone but the black-mana-infused Hage and himself. Hage and Tetsuo fought a battle in which Tetsuo was victorious. Later Tetsuo used Hage's warhammer in his Meteor Hammer spell.
