Editing Az’kerash (section)

== Personality ==
Once an honorable and noble individual, after being betrayed by those he counted as friends, Az'kerash became consumed with hatred for the living and has vowed to eradicate all life. While he had initially gone on a rage-filled rampage for the first century, he has become more patient in the present day, willing to secretly lie in wait and make long-term plans. However, he can still become wrathful, sometimes having a tantrum by shooting random spells of destruction. Cold and calculating, Az'kerash is a master manipulator, having tactics such as secretly replacing people with undead puppets.<ref>[[Chapter 6.50 I]]</ref>

Being the foremost [Necromancer] of his time, Az'kerash has an innate knowledge of anatomy of many different species, having achieved the class of [Archmage]. A brilliant scholar and intellectual, Az'kerash is analytical and methodical, often explaining things verbally as he examines something, as if he was explaining to a group of students.<ref name="7.14T" /> However, he is often arrogant, with an overconfidence in his own abilities.<ref name="2.48" /> Additionally, his [Parallel Thoughts] allows him to multi-task on a dozen projects simultaneously, though it also causes him to be neglectful and absentminded. 

Aside from his hatred of life, Az'kerash also possesses a loathing of Wistram, even being angered by a mention of it.<ref>[[Chapter 6.59]]</ref> He also views the Demons as his enemies, having fought the Deathless back when he was an [Archmage].<ref>[[Chapter 7.36 C]]</ref><ref>[[Interlude – Paradigm Shift (Pt. 2)|Interlude - Paradigm Shift (Pt. 2)]]</ref> He also abhors the idea of [Slaves] or anyone in chains, even freeing [[Ferkr]] from mental hexes when he had no reason to.<ref>[[Chapter 8.42]]</ref> He regarded his former apprentice [[Reiss]] as a useful tool and a means to an end.

He considers the [[Chosen]] as his children, despite often being exasperated by their failures and antics. While he initially did not think much of [[Pisces Jealnet|Pisces]] (only taking him as an apprentice to prevent him from telling everyone he was alive), Az'kerash began to see something of himself in Pisces. Over time, he has developed something of a soft spot for Pisces, becoming exhilerated by his feats and accomplishments.
