Skeletal Warrior: While on a mission far to the east, Soth, an intensely passionate man, met and fell in love with a beautiful elf-maiden cleric. Denissa was a disciple of the Kingpriest of Istar. Not knowing that Soth was married, she fell under the spell of Soth's saintly strength. A fortnight later, he left her with a promise to return within the year.
Upon returning to his keep, Denissa haunted his thoughts. A plan emerged out of tormented passion for his elven cleric: Lady Korinne had to disappear-permanently. Korinne was no longer seen in the keep. It was rumored that she was pregnant and had taken to bed.
The Knights and regular servants were told that it was a difficult pregnancy. Special attendants were hired by Soth to care for his wife. Only these hand-picked servants were allowed to see Korinne. Then came the announcement that Soth's wife and the baby died in childbirth. The truth was that she was strangled by an assassin hired by Soth himself.
She was buried in the huge cemetery across the chasm from the keep. Her hired attendants were quickly dismissed and sent packing. Soth, in his apparent grief, rode off to the east.
Weeks later he returned with a group of elf-maiden clerics, disciples of the Kingpriest.
His closest friends knew that Soth was not the same man they had campaigned with. Something had changed since his wife died. They watched as he quickly became enamored of one of the elf-maidens. In the spring they were married. Within the year she gave birth to a handsome little boy.
Lady Denissa earned the love and respect of the Knights and servants quickly. She was very wise, very kind, and never showed the grief she felt when she learned of the sinful deeds of her husband. In commune with her goddess, she was told that a holocaust would occur, that the Gods were displeased with the selfishness of the rulers of Ansalon and the very clergy itself! She warned Soth of the impending disaster, but he scoffed at her religious hysteria.
She prayed to the Goddess Mishakal that Soth be allowed to redeem himself. Her prayers were answered, Mishakal told her how Soth could stop the great Cataclysm that was to occur. Through her love and spell-induced visions, she convinced Soth that he could redeem himself by finding the rod of omniscient wisdom and putting it into the hands of the Kingpriest at the Temple of Istar. Questing deep into the Dargaard Mountains, Soth and his hand-picked band of Knights fought their way down to the bottom of a maze of volcanic caverns to claim the legendary rod.
The adamantite coffer that held the rod bore the inscription “He who removes this artifact from its resting place shall replace it with his soul.” Believing himself on a holy quest, Soth cracked open the coffer lid and peeked inside. He was the only one to see the purple drawstring bag, bearing the five segments of the rod, and 13 gold circlets. He reached in and removed the purple bag. Suddenly, the room became unbearably hot. Soth and his thirteen Knights passed out in a delirium. When they regained consciousness, Soth could not help but wonder if he had just lost his soul. He went to the coffer which was now closed. It would not open. So they left the caves and set off toward Istar with the holy artifact.
Halfway across Thoradin, they made camp by a shallow river. There were no moons visible in the sky when the group was approached by four dark elven maidens, all disciples of the Kingpriest of Istar. They had sought him out after learning of his murderous deed and his present quest.
Here he was, risking his life to reach Istar and the Gods were telling every female cleric of his sins! Then the elf-maidens threatened to betray him to the Kingpriest and destroy his quest. His dear wife Denissa, they said, was at that very moment sleeping with Greyspawn, Knight of Heart.
This was more than Soth could bear! He ordered his men to break camp at once and to bring the women
with them. They were returning to Dargaard Keep.
If these accursed elves knew of his crimes, how could they be wrong about his wife? This was his ironic fate-he had been unfaithful to his first wife and now his second wife had been unfaithful to him. As he had murdered Korinne, Denissa had sent him on a deadly quest so she could be alone with her lover! Had he lost his soul? And she was cavorting with his long-standing friend! Betrayal and double betrayal!
Soon after their arrival, the rod was placed on the temple altar and council meeting was called in the great circular Entry Hall. His wife was summoned before all and accused of infidelity by the treacherous dark elves.
Innocent, stunned, and shamed before all, she ran to him, clutching her young child to her breast. At that moment, the world shook and everyone was knocked to the floor. The great chandelier fell from the ceiling above the hall and caused a blazing inferno in the heart of the keep. No one escaped the deadly flames. But before Denissa died, she called down a curse upon Soth, condemning him and his Knights to eternal dreadful life. Soth and his men were “reborn” as a death knight and 13 skeletal warriors.
The keep was largely left intact after the Cataclysm. The fire scorched the lower floors and charred the outside of the tower. The southeastern wall of the keep had crumbled and fallen into the chasm as a result of the earthquake. From a distance, the keep now looked like a withered black rose.
Forever wearing his enchanted armor, Soth became the Knight of the Black Rose. Soth soon found that he was quite different in form and power from his loyal followers. The men who had accompanied him on his quest had become skeletal warriors and the rest of his men had become undead creatures of every type.
