King of the Dead

Undead champions are specifically created from the corpses of fallen champions and Heroes from other Factions. Nothing is quite as demoralizing as having your old king leading Sect armies against the gates of your city. Created like a Lich, with the aid of a magic mirror. Like the Lich, not bound to one site or location.

Before his betrayal of the Necropolis Sect, the warlord Kho’Ta originally raised these powerful creatures to life from the graves of mortal kings to serve the greater need of the Necropolis. But when Kho’Ta fled to the headwaters of the Whitespray, he let his control drop over these powerful nopheratu. The resulting chaos as the Kings, freed of their master’s control, attempted to free their undead brethren and throw down their necromantic masters brought about the deaths of many lesser necromancers in a prolonged effort to subdue and control these creatures.

While many of the Kings are now safely under Sect control once again, there are a handful who managed to escape and now roam the Land far and wide, seeking to raise their own armies of the dead for their own unknowable purposes.
