Karador, Ghost Chieftain
Once the chieftain of a powerful forest clan, Karador lost his life in battle to a rival warchief. Such a death would normally be honorable, the best a warchief could ask for, but Karador was truthfully struck down with the poisoned arrow of a hidden assailant. Unable to cope with the loss of his life and kingdom at the hands of such trickery, Karador's anger raised him once more as a spirit of vengeance.
King of the Departed Once an inhabitant of the Ethereal Plane, Karador's eyes were opened to the vast number of other spirits dwelling secretly within the forest, each clinging to the tatters of their former lives. Under his leadership, Karador was able to bring these disparate souls together into a new clan, a veritable kingdom of the dead.
The Call to Serve In life, Karador worked ceaselessly to expand the reach of his command, and in death he sought the same. Gathering with the spirts of dozens of departed shamans, Karador worked to unlock the secrets of the veil between life and death. Through months of effort, the ghostly chieftain found himself with the power necessary to conscript new soldiers to service in his legions of spirits, forcing their obedience if necessary.
