Azazel The Accursed:
After the death of the Great Destroyer, Azazel - still lacking his memories from before his escape from the Realm of Torment in 1069 AE - decides to hunt down his doppleganger whom was split from his body by a Druid (in an attempt to rid his body of evil). In his search, Azazel finally corners his double on a barren and empty island north of Kryta. There the double has gained an army that was full of creatures throughout the world - all corrupted by Azazel's double's cursed sword. After a long battle fighting through the army with Zasalamel, Azazel finally reached his double where the two have their final conflict and fight to the death. In the end, they stab each other with their twin cursed blades - and in that moment, time freezes for them. Those around the two saw no movement - as if the two turned to stone - and believed them to be dead. Leaving the two in their seemingly eternal stance of what they did not knew was eternal agony. Left there, unchanged by time, the two still stand with their own blade pierced through the heart of the other.
Konig Des Todes:
A lich from ancient times, Konig grew tired of living forever, forced to help the world by the gods. He sought an end, sought a means, and searched. After nearly half a century after his old homeland, Orr, rose from the depths, Konig found the beginning of his freedom. Much preparation was needed, and so Konig isolated himself as the world fell around him - ancient entities rose around him and wrecked havoc around the world, yet he had no call from Grenth to fight these disastrous beings. In the year 1308 AE, Konig had finished his preparation. All he needed was one thing: A body of another. He chose a Charr cub, and used that body in his ritual. He thought it would bring him death, but it was not death he gained - but a new life. Konig's soul was placed inside the Charr cub's body, whose soul moved into Konig's old body. The new Charr body was strong, strong enough to subdue the new lich with the mind of a child before he could do anything. Locking up his old body with the same enchantments that Odran once used on him, Konig kept his old body out of harms way, and lived the life of a Charr - until the day he would finally have the peace of death.
Xaphan Sariel:
Always having sought all the knowledge in the world, Xaphan stayed in the Domain of Secrets since he and his allies first reached there with Kormir. Missing the opportunity to become the God of Knowledge himself, he desired to seek immortality so that he could gain all knowledge in the universe. After months of searching the Domain of Secrets, Xaphan found the spell which he sought. Having sacrificed many of the last few imprisoned Margonites and demons for his spell, Xaphan finally achieved immortality and with that, an even stronger bond with the spirits of the afterlife. Returning to the world of Tyria, Xaphan sought all knowledge - going to library after library, Xaphan read and memorized all information that existed in those books, and he never aged. When Orr rose, Xaphan was one of those who helped save parchment and, for those that could not be saved, he duplicated the scrolls - with what he felt were improvements to the original works. After the Durmand Priory was founded, Xaphan worked to transfer or duplicate all scrolls from the other libraries throughout Tyria to that location. Now, Xaphan explores the land endlessly seeking more and more information, never being satisfied with the knowledge he ever gains, he continues endlessly until the end of time...
Agares Hastur II:
After the death of the Great Destroyer, and with the world in peace once more, Agares retired to his love in Vabbi, making a house not far from the Holdings of Chohkin, along the river. He lived the rest of his life as a fisher with his Vabbian wife and two children - a boy and a girl, both growing up to be adventurers of the world. Agares led a peaceful life, his only trouble was keeping the giants and minotaurs away, but that was no issue for a former hero.
When Joko rose, Agares fought to protect Vabbi and his family, but quickly fell with his now-frail body. His son and daughter were both sent to Kryta to live with Ithaqua Zhar and his family by their mother, who could not leave. The two, Agares Hastur III and Alila Hastur (named after Agares II's dead sister), lived their days in Kryta. Agares III eventually grew up to marry Ithaqua's daughter.
Cypher of the Light:
A fallen angel of Dwayna, Cypher had fulfilled his purpose with the death of Abaddon, and has decided to serve his gods once more. Not welcomed into Dwayna's fold - for her angles were now the fallen Harpies (a fate Cypher was lucky not to have gained) - Cypher followed Kormir, the new Goddess of Truth. And in her new Redeemed Realm, Cypher acts as her general against any and all threats there may be, once more flying in the heavens as he always should have.
Zasalamel Rofocale:
Zasalamel Rofocale, after the Great Destroyer's death, helped Azazel in his search for his double. When the search came to the island, Zasalamel was the only one to fight alongside Azazel against his double's army. Zasalamel suffered many wounds and before Azazel could even reach his double. In the end, Zasalamel was killed during that battle where his legacy ended.
Ithaqua Zhar:
-no story for him yet-
Nargel Haroth:
When the Door of Komalie was opened, Nargel was banished through the rift and was tossed into the Realm of Torment by the Lich (whom he tried to steal the staff from). There he reveled in the pain of others, and when he found the Shadow Army, he forced them to let him meet Menzies the Mad. Menzies, believing he was using Nargel, had "corrupted" Nargel into their trump card against the True Gods. However, once given power, Nargel betrayed the two masterminds, and now walks the Mists as Nargel the Nightmare, a being of pure destruction, darkness, and hysteria.
