<Grendal Eronale, the Cursed Witch>
A Ruhn necromancer haunting the Runadium. Once a highly respected sorcerer of great talent, Grendal's life began to crumble following the unfortunate death of her lover.
Through powerful necromancy, she attempted to summon the soul of her deceased lover at the Runadium, only to fail and ultimately inflict a curse upon herself.
Soon enough, she found herself cast out by her community, leading her to return to the Runadium, where she lived among evil spirits as her hatred for the world and her people festered.
<Idris, Wayward Child of Ru>
Son of a magistrate, he was revered for his swordsmanship and vowed from an early age to devote his life to the defense of Ru. Seeking the power to defend his city, Idris became fascinated with the power of Empyrean Lord Israphel and searched far and wide throughout the Abyss for a relic of Israphel's that would allow him to travel between dimensions.
Following the collapse of the AION Tower and the city's fall into the Abyss, the wayward son Idris faded from memory.
