Oberan the Reviled

Before The Searing, Oberan the Reviled was a respected member of Ascalon's necromantic order and could be found deep within The Catacombs. The room in which Pitney's prized moa bird was sacrificed in some form of necromantic ritual is nearby, which implicates Oberan in its death.

After The Searing threw the kingdom of Ascalon into disarray, Oberan took the opportunity to carve out his own kingdom of the dead from the ruins. This action caused him to be ousted from the necromantic order and caused a number of Necromancers, Kasha Blackblood in particular, to seek a way to be rid of his foul presence forever.
