Karn

''
==At a Glance==
Once a monk of the Lost Library of Ioun, Karn was a hengeyokai-lion whose life was filled with tragedy. Orphaned at a young age, he was found by the monks of the Lost Library of Ioun and brought up amongst their order. Born with a destructive hypersonic voice, even Karn's whispers could trigger massive releases of energy that could level several city blocks. As such, Karn's tuteledge under the monks of Ioun taught him restraint, but following the Plague of Acerak on his town, Karn lost faith in Ioun's deliverence and began to see restraint as a weakness. Sensing the Lion's frailty, the dark goddess Tiamat influenced Karn from her distant prison, using him as a fessel to bring about the end times known as Dark Sun.
The future cataclysm of Karn's scorched earth curse would be scryed by the Brotherhood of the Spoke who successfully roused a group of heroes to stop him. Called the Forseen Five, the heroes and their adventurer allies descended upon the destroyed Lost Library of Ioun and stopped Karn before the curse could release Tiamat from her prison. Defeated, Karn was imprisoned by The Brotherhood of the Spoke in the hopes that they could rehabilitate the hengeyokai and put him back on the path of righteousness.
== Age of Adventure ==
Karn's activity in the Age of Adventure was limited to a few key moments:
* He survived the Plague of Acerak on his home, the Lost Library of Ioun.
* Driven mad, he was seduced by the influence of Tiamat who blessed him with the knowledge of a curse that could release her from her prison.
* Close to success, Karn was defeated and imprisoned by the Brotherhood of the Spoke.
