High Lord Darkashul

High Lord Darkashul is the ruler of Clan Darkashul, one of the most powerful dark elf clans in Tal'Zareth — the underground realm beneath Tanelon. He sits on a throne of obsidian and bone in halls lit by soul-lanterns. He is the father of Sorrowblade, born to him by a lowborn servant. Darkashul is a calculating, ruthless political figure who views his children as tools. He sent Sorrowblade on a suicide mission to kill Jhendel Vshorel, intending for her to die and eliminate a political liability — a half-lowborn heir whose existence embarrassed the clan. He also sent Folshen of House Darkashul after Kane and the exiles on the road, demonstrating his long reach beyond Tal'Zareth.
