Xaramoth the Unmaker

Xaramoth (Zarow-moth) the Unmaker is the leader of Rikk Il Kirasath, or "The Veil of Darkness". After the Third War, Xaramoth began studying the demonic arts by traveling around the world to catalog all its uses through Azeroth. During his travels, he met three other warlocks, Sephirot (Sef-fer-rot), Nistram (Nice-stram), and Tzadikim (Taz-ew-dek-um). With them, Xaramoth created a secretive sect know as the Dark Lords, whose goal was to master all aspects of both Demonology and Affliction. The alliance of the Dark Lords were short lived. After Tzadikim stole Xaramoth's, Nistram's, and Sephirot's researched they were forced to banish him from Azeroth's plane of existence. During the banishment, their research was scattered across Azeroth. In recent years, Xaramoth's goal has been to restore the Dark Lord's research.

=History= Early on, Xaramoth was an officer in the Scourge's vast ranks. However, during the Third War, Xaramoth was freed from the Lich King's control.

Founding of the Dark Lords

 * After being freed from the Lich King's grasp, Xaramoth fought alongside the Forsaken against Arthas. After the Third War, Xaramoth began to explore the world to find and study the demonic arts. In his exploration, he met Sephirot, Nistram, and Tzadikim. Sephirot, also a veteran of the Third War, was now attempting to catalog the rich history of Azeroth and Azeroth's denizens. Xaramoth met Sephirot atop Dreadmist Peak located in northern Barrens. Sephirot, interested in Xaramoth's goal of learning every aspect of demonology, began to travel with Xaramoth across Kalimdor in an effort to learn from him and to also record Kalimdor's history. They traveled north into Felwood where Xaramoth learned how to enslave the most cunning of all the demons, the Satyrs. After months of practice, he grew tired of Felwood. Unable to decide where to go next, he began letting Sephirot lead. Sephirot followed the paths east, into Winterspring. In Winterspring, they found a place that intrigued both of them, Darkwhisper Gorge. Xaramoth tried to test his strength by trying to enslave the demons located there. Dispite his best efforts, Xaramoth could not summon the strength to enslave and control the will of such powerful demons. Sephirot wanted to study the gorge, however the powerful demons would not let any outsiders in. With Xaramoth preoccupied, Sephirot traveled to Everlook where he began trying to find mercenaries to kill the demons for him. There, he met Tzadikim, a powerful orc warlock who decided to help him. Tzadikim went south with Sephirot back to Darkwhisper Gorge, where they met up with Xaramoth. Tzadikim, unable to kill the demons himself, decided to enslave the demons instead. However powerful Tzadikim was, he was unable to bend the will of any given demon for more than a few seconds. After watching Tzadikim fail to control the demons himself, Xaramoth realized that no warlock, no matter how powerful, would be able to enslave the demons by themselves. In an attempt to enslave the demons, both Xaramoth and Tzadikim both focused their strengths to break the shackles of free will off a felguard there. With both their combined strengths, the felguard gave way, and become forever bound to the bidding's of both Xaramoth and Tzadikim. Tzadikim gave his share of the control over to Xaramoth. Then, he tried to enslave another demon by himself. Amazingly, his strength had grown tenfold, and was now able to control the most powerful demons located in Darkwhisper Gorge. Xaramoth's strength had also grown, he was now able to bind the will of demons effortlessly himself. Tzadikim, now feeling debt to both Xaramoth and Sephirot, began traveling with them in their adventures across Azeroth. After months of wondering, they arrived at Scholomance in Western Plaguelands. There, they met a disgruntled student, named Nistram. Under the guidance of Nistram, they went into Schololamce and eradicated all of the inhabitants of Scholomance and stole its spell books. In the years following, all of them began studying from the spell books as well as each-other. They all learned each-others spells and techniques in an effort to better themselves. Months later, they had learned all they could from one another. However, still intent on increasing their own strength, they began terrorizing the Eastern Kingdoms. They stormed into towns and killed all demonic magic users and stole their studies. They soon became to be known by many as the “Dark Lords”.

The Dark Lords Splinter

 * While their demonic powers grew by the day, they still craved more. Realizing that they could cover more ground if they split up, they decided the brake apart and venture across Azeroth by themselves. Their goal was to study all the demonic arts they could. Then reunite years later, and teach each-other what they learned.
 * Sephirot left and began studying the magics used in Silverpine Forest.
 * Nistram returned to Scholomance and began learning from the best masters their.
 * Xaramoth and Tzadikim had to go farther for their education. Both of them stormed into Outland and spent the next two years studying the demons their.

The Reunion

 * After two years of studying, they returned to where it all began, Dreadmist Peak. Keen on proving their own respective strength, They all fought eachother day and night to show off their new and powerful abilities. Nistram had mastered affliction. His spells caused the pain of a thousand deaths on those he afflicted. Sephirot had learned the art of deception. While his spells were not as powerful as the others, he was able to create mirror copies of himself during combat. Xaramoth had learned a new and powerful art. In combat, he was able to split himself from his mortal form and turn into a demon himself. While in this demonic state, he'd decimate anyone who opposed. However, he was unable to support himself in this form for extended periods of time. Tzadikim had learned the art of controlling demons. Without any effort he could enslave massive armies of demons and bend them to his own twisted will. Not only could he control them, his demons would also gain his strength. Making him one of the most powerful demonology warlocks in Azeroth. However, he did not have a full grip on his own powers.

Tzadikim's Betrayal

 * Tzadikim began to go mad. While he was able to bind the will of thousands of demons to his whim, the control demons corruption began to seep into his mind. He began to grow drunk with power. Then, one night, he stole Xaramoth's, Nistram's, and Sephirot's spellbooks to keep the power for himself. He fled north back to Winterspring where he could use the demons there to keep the others away.The next morning, Xaramoth, Nistram, and Sephirot noticed that their studies had been stolen, and that Tzadikim was now missing. They assumed that Tzadikim had stolen them, and began to track him. After following him through Ashenvale, they knew where he was heading, and moved ahead of him to trap him before he could get to the relative safety of Winterspring.In Felwood, Xaramoth rallied all the Statyrs he could, and bound them to his will so that Tzadikim couldn't do the same. Once Tzadikim entered Felwood, Nistram and Sephirot began stalking him, always keeping him in their sights. Xaramoth, went past Tzadikim, and waited at the entrance to Winterspring. Knowing that when Tzadikim arrived, he'd have him trapped. Tzadikim soon arrived at the cave that connected Winterspring and Felwood. Once he entered, Sephirot and Nistram collasped the entrance from Felwood. At the same time, Xaramoth Collapsed the entrance to Winterspring. Tzadikim was now trapped.

The Death of Nistram

 * In the cave, Xaramoth confronted Tzadikim and was able to confirm that he was the one who stole their spellbooks. When Xaramoth requested that Tzadikim returned them, Tzadikim flew into a rage and began to try to kill Xaramoth. Xaramoth's power was no match for Tzadikim alone, however, Nistram and Sephirot followed close behind and began to help control Tzadikim. During the battle, Nistram fell from one of Sephirot's stray spells. Sephirot, in disbelief that he had now murdered one of his close friends, banished himself from Azeroth during the battle.

The Fall of Tzadikim

 * Tzadikim was able to corner Xaramoth in the cave. Xaramoth, expecting that he was going to be killed, kneeled down and accepted his fate. But, when Tzadikim went to finish him, Xaramoth went into a rage and turned into an avatar of a powerful demon. Unable to control the Avatar for long, Xaramoth knew he had to finish Tzadikim quickly. With the help of his felguard he had gotten years earlier from Tzadikim, he turned the tide of the battle in his favor. Knowing that killing Tzadikim would case his power to erupt and surely kill anyone near it, he ripped Tzadikim from Azeroth's plane of existence and banished him to wonder the great dark forever. But, in his banishment, the spellbooks were ripped and scattered across both Azeroth and Outlands.

End of the Dark Lords

 * After the death of after the death of Nistram and the banishments of Sephirot and Tzadikim, the Dark Lords were no more. In recent years, Xaramoth has been trying to restore all of the spellbooks that were scattered across Azeroth. He has also taken a particular interest in the History of Azeroth, and is now cataloging the worlds events as tribute to his long, lost friend, Sephirot.

Operations in Northrend
Following the Horde and Alliances assault on Northrend, Xaramoth has traveled to Northrend to assist in the war efforts against the Lich King. Xaramoth also has waged war against the Scarlet Onslaught's efforts across the frozen continent. Launching repeated assaults against New Hearthglen and staging large scale attacks against Onslaught Harbor.

Studies of Demonic Magic
After the banishment of Tzadikim, the Dark Lord's research was scattered about Azeroth. Xaramoth, the only remaining Dark Lord, began to search Azeroth to recover the research. After years of searching, the majority of the research has been recovered.
 * Xaramoth's Original Research (91% Recovered)
 * Sephirot's (79% Recovered)
 * Nistram's (67% Recovered)
 * Tzadikim's (51% Recovered)

However, the search is not over. Xaramoth speculates that much of the research is buried beneath Azeroth. So deep, that it cannot be reached by any conventional means.

=Research=

A Study of Darkness
This study is one large, comprehensive book created from pieces of the Dark Lord's research. Following the Banishment of Tzadikim, the Dark Lord's research was scattered about Azeroth and Outlands. Xaramoth is trying to piece together their research and combine it into one of the most powerful warlock spellbooks of all time. This study is still ongoing, and consumes a large amount of Xaramoth's time.

Dark Shines
Dark Shines, a book written by Xaramoth is a comprehensive overview of two ancient languages, Draconic and Demonic. The intention of this study was to better understand "the native languages of evil". Understanding of both languages would allow the deciphering of ancient tomes and texts entailing warlock rituals and spells written centuries ages ago.

=Rikk Il Kirasath = A few years after the fall of the Dark Lords, Xaramoth created Rikk Il Kirasath. In Demonic, this means "Veil of Darkness". While this has little meaning in Demonic, in Draconic it is a protective warding. Translated into Draconic, it means "They will Defend". This Draconic warding (protectively) binds Xaramoth to Azeroth's plane of existence, preventing his banishment from the physical world.
