Title: Former Priest of the Black Earth Cult
Race: Human
Class: Cleric
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Last seen: defeated in the tomb of the moving stones.

Appearance:
Larrakh is a figure marked by his turbulent past, with sharp, calculating eyes that miss no detail. His once opulent priestly robes have been replaced by simpler, though still distinguished, attire that bears the muted colors of earth and stone. His hair is kept short, practical for the life of secrecy and caution he now leads. A notable scar crosses his cheek, a memento from the conflict that led to his exile.

Personality:
Larrakh is complex, driven by a blend of regret, ambition, and a desire for redemption. He possesses a keen intellect and is highly skilled in the arcane arts, particularly those connected to earth and stone. Despite his exile, he retains a deep, though conflicted, devotion to the elemental forces he once served. Larrakh is cautious and reserved, having learned the hard way the price of overreach and the betrayal of trust.

Background:
Once a rising star within the Cult of the Black Earth, Larrakh’s ambition led to overzealous actions that ultimately caused significant setbacks to the cult’s objectives. His miscalculations resulted in his exile, a punishment that spared his life but stripped him of his status and power within the cult. Now, Larrakh operates from the shadows, seeking ways to regain his former standing or, perhaps, to forge a new path that could either redeem or further damn him.

Abilities:
As a cleric of the Black Earth, Larrakh wields powerful earth-based magic, capable of manipulating stone, causing tremors, and fortifying defenses with elemental energy. His time in exile has honed his survival skills, making him adept at evading those who might still seek his life, be they former allies or new enemies. Larrakh is a formidable strategist, using his knowledge of the cult and its workings to either thwart or manipulate it from afar.

Equipment:
Larrakh carries a staff that doubles as a focus for his earth magic, carved from petrified wood and inset with stones that pulse with elemental power. His other possessions are few, carrying only what he needs to survive and continue his work in secrecy.

Role in the Story:
Larrakh is a wild card, his actions unpredictable but always significant. To some, he may become an unlikely ally, driven by a desire to thwart greater evils or by personal vendettas against those who wronged him. To others, he remains a dangerous and cunning foe, his motivations obscured by layers of deception and long-term schemes.

Motivations:
Larrakh’s primary motivation is to navigate the treacherous path he finds himself on, seeking a way to either return to power within the cult or to dismantle it as a means of revenge. His journey is one of self-discovery, challenging his beliefs and ambitions, and forcing him to confront the question of what, in the end, he truly values and desires.
