Phlegethon
Phlegethon
Leader of one of many rebellions that erupted in the waning years of the Allagan Empire, imperial annals paint Phlegethon as a murderous villain. Writings of the commonfolk, however, reveal the general’ status as a hero of the people. Adored though he was, the revolutionary leader was eventually captured by agents of the empire and his body was forcibly altered through sorcery and science, his mind broken and conditioned to obey.
