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.

== Background ==
Perril Chandler was born to a family of [Chandlers] in the Terandrian kingdom of Silvaria. His powerful magical potential led him to become apprenticed to the [High Mage] of his city, mastering Tier 3 spells before the age of sixteen. After the death of his master, he discovered his talent for necromancy, while also becoming a duellist, eventually enlisting in Silvaria's army. Perril Chandler became friends with Lady Bea, who sponsored his education in Wistram.

Perril Chandler became friends with Lady Bea, who sponsored his education in Wistram.  


A few years later, he became a mercenary and was hired by the Drakes to fight the Naga Incursions. During the war, he encountered [[Zelkyr Amerwing]], whom he had once met in Wistram, and struck up a genuine friendship. Together with undead and Golems, they became a genuine threat to the Lizardpeople.

After the war, Perril returned to Silvaria, when plague had struck the land. He summoned undead to assist with the harvest, thus gaining the gratitude of King Redoris. By the age of 30, Perril Chandler became a [Lord] of Silvaria. Eventually, with the nomination of Zelkyr, both became Archmages of Wistram.

By the age of 30, Perril Chandler became a [Lord] of Silvaria. Eventually, with the nomination of Zelkyr, both became Archmages of Wistram.  


During a war with the Dawn Concordat against [[Calanfer]], Perril Chandlerwas able to single-handedly fight off an army of four hundred thousand with the help of the [[Thronebearers of Calanfer|Thronebearers]], thus achieving the class of [Archmage], and becoming known as the Archmage of Death.

However, Perril Chandler's fall of grace began, brought about by the jealousy and envy of King Redoris. Seeking to diminish Perril Chandler, Redoris sent him to Rhir to fight the Demon Kingdom where, together with Zelkyr and several armies, they fought the [[Deathless]]. Though they managed to kill two of the Deathless and severely injure the rest, all the armies were broken, and the Archmages were driven back. This loss, along with other events such as rampaging undead and a Wailing Pit, cost Perril Chandler his reputation and began souring people towards necromancy. However, the inciting incident was the attempted assassination of Redoris with a bone needle. Despite protesting his innocence, Perril Chandler was executed, and the Necromancer would rise in his place. Hating all life, he would return ten years later to Silvaria and destroy it, killing Redoris, Bea, and thousands of citizens. He would continue on to plague Terandrian kingdoms for the next hundred years, leading armies of death against the living. He would destroy and despoil kingdoms, his undead armies beaten back only after much effort and then he would disappear before he could be slain, returning after years or sometimes decades, sometimes even faking his demise. Each time he returned he was stronger. At some point, he slew [[Kerash]], the beloved Chieftain of the [[Gnolls]] whom some had labelled the first ‘King of Gnolls’. As such, the Gnolls dubbed the Necromancer as Az’kerash (‘Slayer of Kerash’), a title he adopted.

=== Second Antinium War ===
=== Second Antinium War ===
During the Second Antinium War, Az'kerash led a massive army against the port-Kingdom of [[Desonis]], where he quickly overwhelmed the kingdom’s army but did not approach the capital. Rather, he seized a local port and then departed for [[Izril]].

''While his intentions for invading Izril were never revealed, [[Pisces]] speculates that his aim were the walls of the [[Walled Cities]], the foundations of which potentially contain [[Dragons|Dragon]] bones.''

In his invasion of Izril, the Necromancer clashed with the army of the [[Velan|Goblin King]] once before approaching Liscor. He besieged the city which was however quickly relieved by [[Zel Shivertail]]. After three months, the ruinous and increasingly desperate siege was lifted when an [[Antinium]] army under [[Klbkch]] came to Liscor's help. Zel Shivertail himself assailed the Necromancer's position and tore Az'kerash into two pieces. The undead army was swept up in the aftermath. (See: [[Necromancer's Siege of Liscor]]).

However, Az'kerash had once again only faked his death at Zel's hands. While Zel and the majority of Izril's population was convinced of Chandler's death, he settled down in a huge castle located in the [[Blood Fields]]. No one, aside from a handful of people, is aware of its existence, as he cast a powerful veil around his domain.

Eight years before the main story started, he or one of his many undead constructs posed as a [Merchant] and went to a Drake village, bringing a wagon laden with goods and asking for news. There he met a [[Reiss|Hobgoblin]] under illusion spells that intrigued him.<ref name=":5.50 G">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/12/29/5-50-g/ Chapter 5.50 G]</ref> Az’kerash saw that the Hob could read<ref name=":4.46">[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/06/16/4-46/ Chapter 4.46]</ref> as well. That night, he attacked the Drake village with a horde of undead, slaughtered the Drakes and cornered the Hobgoblin and fought him. After defeating the Hob, Az’kerash offered him the choice of serving him in life or serving him in death. The Hob chose to live, and so he became his apprentice.<ref name=":5.50 G" /> Az’kerash then started training him, by giving him spell books and scrolls to read,<ref name=":4.46" /> so that he could make him his own Goblin King and use him as a weapon to strike the living with.<ref name=":5.50 G" />

Ryoka broke through that veil, followed by [[Periss Veldant|Periss]] who was slain, together with her Elite Soldiers, by the Undead. Ryoka could run straight towards Az'kerash's study where he - his main consciousness still occupied with the Undead creation spell - stopped her with a [Sticky Webbing] and a [Silent Sickle] spell. He reprimanded Venitra and dismissed her, then dealt with Ryoka himself, commending her for coming this far.

As he then learned she was a [Courier] sent to him from Teriarch, he relieved her of the package and revealed to Ryoka that the [[Dragons|Dragon]] had sent him a birth-year greeting and a considerably minor artifact: an original ring enchanted with warding and movement spells in the Silvarian duelling fashion.

Supposing that it would not do to kill one of Teriarch messengers, he lets her go afterwards.<ref name="2.30" /> A week later, he finished his new undead creation, and woke from his focussed trance, ready to give orders on collecting fresh material for his next creations, of which he states to need at least six, and fourteen would be ideal. Still, he started to work under time constraints. When Venitra reported to him the incident with Ryoka, Az'kerash became furious that the messenger had escaped alive to tell of his location: spilling the knowledge of his current abode could undo a decade of preparation and force him to act. So he tasked Venitra, together with [[Ijvani]], to track Ryoka down and kill her along with everybody else who knew of his castle - unless the Runner has kept confidential about it, in which case he expected Venitra to either call him but use her own judgement because he was similarly occupied with a creation again.

After she left, Az'kerash considered that he was ready for a war, if the need arose; but if not he would have yet more time to prepare. He also pondered about Teriarch's role in the chains of events, as the Dragon was his mortal enemy but also a neutral entity that might now take sides in the conflict.<ref name="2.48">[https://wanderinginn.com/2017/07/29/2-41/ Chapter 2.48]</ref>

Az'kerash interfered in the battle between his apprentice, the [[Reiss|Goblin Lord]], and the forces of [[Garusa Weatherfur|Garusa]] by possessing him. Seemingly casual, he kill Garusa and her Soldiers and reanimated them as Draugr to send them towards their former comrades. After telling his apprentice to finish this, he left. After the battle, Az'kerash reprimanded the Goblin Lord, telling him that he had alerted the Drakes of his greatest weapon and failed to use it to proper effect: While Reiss tried to separate Undead and Goblins and hold back the Goblins forces to spare their lives, Az'kerash expected him to ruthlessly sacrifice both in order to win more effectively. He tasked Reiss to comply with those battle orders, and to unify the Goblins, or otherwise perish in despair.<ref>[https://wanderinginn.com/2018/02/24/4-16/ Chapter 4.16]</ref>

A few days later, he contacted the Goblin Lord to give him his orders. Then he asked him why he was keeping the [[Osthia Blackwing|Drake]], as that while she is an [[Oldblood Drakes|Oldblood]], as a useful corpse, she was not. Upon hearing that he is using her as a spy for information, he told him with a voice filled with scorn that he already has all the information required, and that he does not need spies, only magic.

Then he remind him of his orders to go past Liscor and reclaim [[Mountain City Tribe|the Goblins]] in the [[Dwarfhalls Rest|mountain]], by taming their [[Tremborag|leader]], so that he could build his forces and wreak havoc among the Human lands. He also told him to become a Goblin King if he is able, and If not, then die cursing his weaknesses.

When Ijvani finally arrived at Az'kerash's fortress, the Necromancer studied the [[Healing Slime]] and [[Toren]], determining the latter to be a masterpiece that Pisces had created unknowingly of his true achievement: a levelling, sentient Undead made from a Necromancer's Archmages bones, inscribed with the spell matrix of a sentient Golem. That discovery made Az'kerash destroy much of his less valuable property in excitement (including major parts of his castle, his bone giants, his laboratory and the forest surrounding his fortress). He then resolved to reshape his Chosen, make them leveling undead (starting with Ijvani), and raise their number from four to ten.
