Bael'Zharon's Rampage
After being freed, Bael'Zharon rampages across Dereth seeking revenge for the death of his son Avoren Palacost.
Event Summary
- Bael visits towns and dungeons including Fort Tethana, Kara, Arwic Mines (Subway) and many more.
- Bael uses his unique and extremely powerful spells on players who interrupt his monologues and conversations and also attack him. His pool of spells included powers such as Demon Fists, Portal to Teth and Weight of Eternity to name a few. Portal to Teth was also used to summon Cows that fell from the sky above Teth and other locations - inflicting massive bludgeoning damage on the poor unsuspecting victim below.
- Players that converse with him or try to help him are buffed with powerful beneficial spells including Bile of the Hopeslayer, Boon of the Demon and Demon Skin.

- On Darktide, Bael'Zharon was never killed - however, due to a glitch Asheron was accidently (?) killed by Bael when they fought in Plateau Village.
