Arkalor

Arkalor was a lich known throughout the Age of Telvimbror as an irritable loner who yet had the irresistible urge to meddle. Not much is known about his human life, as no record of anyone named Arkalor exists in Telvimbror or any magic academy. He was sometimes sought out by locals for favors, even by the local paladins of the Order of Iludin.
In 2050 AoT, Arkalor was caught up in a conflict between the paladins in Lellemar and the free-roaming bards that undermined their authority throughout the land. He was drawn into it because he owed the local Lord Marshal of the Iludin Herbert Goodman a personal debt. Once he was in, he realized that one of the leading rebels was his grandson Mellendir Sa'fet. This put him at odds with himself, and he ended up doing nothing but escalating the skirmishes into a full scale battle in 2051 AoT, where his grandson was killed. 
After centuries, his tower began to deteriorate and the people presumed he had died or left. No one has dared rob the tower, and if anyone has attempted, they were never found. 
His presence was rediscovered nearly a thousand years later during the Age of the Virgin Lands. He lives as a hermit in Mellendir's Forest, enjoying a treaty of nonaggression with Lellemar. Few officers in the Iludin know of his continued existence, but those who do are often skeptical of any true loyalty. Some say he is studying the spirits to find a way to bring his grandson back to life. Others say he seeks dominion over them and intends to one day revenge himself on the Order. Whatever the case, he is rarely heard from. He is tired of living, but is much too stubborn to ever let himself die, believing he has put too much work into immortality.
Often Arkalor appeared as a light-skinned young man with long, brown hair, but he would occasionally drop his magical guise and reveal his lich face.
