Character Summary Geraine IV Race: Dericostian

Monarch of the fallen kingdom of Dericost, first Dericost to become an undead.

Hevk Loz tells you, "Sickly from birth, Geraine IV, was taken by sisters who had stepped aside from the path and brought into a state that would forever sustain his body, soul and mind. Geraine in turn taught his people, but the sisters were not so foolish to not enter this state themselves. Many sleep, while in waking dreams, they think their time nears as a new singer raises her voice. But what of Geraine? His life is over, but still he endures, watches and waits. His death began his life anew."

Notwithstanding Hevk Loz' comment, Geraine IV, also known as His Eternal Splendor, was a Dericost heir to the ice throne whose father, Geraine III came into contact with Falatacot witches who wanted to make their home on Ireth Lassel. The witches promised to make Geraine III's son immortal if he allowed them to stay in Ireth Lassel. Geraine III agreed, and they performed a blood ritual on Geraine IV, who died and was reborn an immortal on that occasion. Geraine IV proceeded to turn many of the Dericost nobles he associated with into immortals, but he botched many of these blood rituals, and as a result many Dericost undead are ugly tattered corpses walking around.

Nobody ever sees Geraine IV, but Lord Rytheran and Lady Aerfalle are his consorts and they make appearances.
