Darkhan was the mysterious Dark Lord behind the scenes of all evil doings. He is also known to whisper dark, corrupting suggestions into the ears of mortals. He manifested eventually as the Shadow Dragon during the Taekir War. The manipulations of promising absolute power to Rodyn that led to the assassination of Queen Victoria and eventually oust Rodyn in favour for Sakuragi as the Legion Forsaken. When he knew his powers waned, he impregnated a whore to bear him a son, a successor, Zanzabar. Before his passing, he trapped his lover Carain in a gem and eventually destroyed her forever. The altar of Darkhan lies within the Keep of D'al Kadar. Followers of Darkhan are obsessed with evil and seek to further spread its corruption. Not content with mere power as an end, they prove that nothing is sacred, nothing holy enough that it cannot be tainted and defiled into something of evil. They provide the antithesis to the Knights of Valour, and on the battlefield are often their most formidable opponents. However, due to his subterfuge, he manages to hide his presence and often the other gods will get the blame for things that are for his doing. There are plenty of Serins that believe the Dark Lord has been destroyed - they are very gravely mistaken about that.
