[QUOTE="Chaldfont, post: 2495877, member: 1472"] The Hermit of Ogo was a mystic theurge who was the last survivor of a long dead cabal of evil spellcasters who ruled the land with an iron fist before being defeated by an army of elves. He was blind but made use of dozens of magical jars filled with preserved monster eyes to see. He started out as the owner of a magic shop in the remote fishing village of Ogo, but we liked the character so much I made him the villain. At various times the PCs worked for him (after he raised them from the dead at the cost of their servitude), executed an elaborate heist of his wizard tower, and even ended up capturing him only to learn that the only way to continue their quest was to work with him. In the end he took over their estate while they were away on a quest. When they returned, he convinced them to undertake a ritual that would make them masters of a group of doppleganger assassins used by their enemies. The ritual was actually a disguised rite that would make the Hermit into a lich. Once the party sorcerer realized this, he shoved the Hermit into the Void (a portal the Negative Energy Plane) and completed the ritual himself. Now he's slowly becoming a lich. They are pretty sure that the Hermit of Ogo perished when he was sucked into the Void... [/QUOTE]
