Karoolck is a powerful mage who serves Ivid V as his Imperial Court Mage after the Greyhawk Wars, maintaining a tower in Rauxes for his research.
Description
Appearance
Karoolck is tall and thin, being 6'2" with forearms only as wide as his wrists. He has brown eyes and black hair, but doesn't otherwise have body hair. He has fingernails which are a full inch long and iron hard.[1]
Personality
Karoolck is bitter and vengeful, never forgetting nor forgiving his enemies. He is paranoid about the possible return of his predecessor Xaene, despite the mage being dead, and is prone to taking out fits of anger on his goblin minions by casting disintegration[2].
Religion
Karoolck has sold his soul to the pit fiend Baalzephon, who he first encountered at the Cauldron of Night, in exchange for being granted an exceptionally long life, not aging for 333 years, and nine free resurrections, of which he still has eight left. In exchange, he is utterly devoted to her and does her bidding in the mortal realm [1].
