Kul-Ang (commonly known as Charon) is an undead goliath and former ruler of Uga-Thul, who was killed and resurrected by Lord Drakkus as one The Seven Shards. Serving Drakkus for a number of decades, Kul-Ang was eventually killed by Twisted Fate, after which his soul and mortal body were separately reborn on Terra Aletheia. The pair eventually made their way to one another, where they rejoined to become one. Kul-Ang later joined a group of adventurers known as The Harbingers of Havoc.

## History

Born into a tribe of goliath who lived high in The Crown Mountains known as the Shale-Skins, the warrior who would eventually become Kul-Ang was raised in an environment of respect and loyalty. He spent many years serving his people, first as a hunter, then as a warrior. During this time Kul-Ang earned his warrior name, and wedded his bride. He also fought for the title of chieftain, eventually replacing his own uncle honorably as ruler of his people. It was during this period that The Pale Rider, Obstinath, sent his forces to enslave Kul-Ang's people, as part of the dragons conquest of the entire mountain range.

Despite fighting fiercely, the Shale-Skins were driven down from their land and into the abandoned fortress of Uga-Thul. It was during this exodus that Kul-Ang's family were killed by the forces of Obstinath. Despite his tragic loss, Kul-Ang would turn his attention to the safety of his people, as their proximity to The Northwyld drew the gaze of Lord Drakkus. The undead ruler and Great-Jarl of all the northern Forts, Drakkus sought to conquer Uga-Thul for himself.

After a protracted siege, the undead hordes of the necromancer broke through the Shale-Skins defenses. As Kul-Ang watched his people die around, he attempted to assassinate Drakkus himself, who simply laughed at the chieftains brave but foolish attacks. Seeing in him a worthy spirit, Drakkus destroyed then resurrected Kul-Ang as one of his Shards, powerful Deathknights who served as Drakkus' most elite warriors.

It was this role that Kul-Ang served for many years, taking on the epithet of The Shieldsplitter, for his unflinching and violent battles waged in Drakkus' name. When the necromancer was eventually banished under mysterious circumstances, Kul-Ang and the other Shards were set out into the world masterless, subject to the whims of whichever mage was powerful enough to take control of the enchantments that bound them.

For years Kul-Ang would bounce from master to master, until falling under the control of Bellina High-Hill, then Queen of The Highlands. The Queen intended to use Kul-Ang as an assassin, to destroy her brother Bill High-Hill and his allies Twisted Fate. After Kul-Ang set about unleashing his full wrath upon the group, Bellina had a change of heart, destroying herself and Kul-Ang along with her.

For the next two decades Kul-Ang's spirit would fight to reform, eventually fracturing into an amnesiac goliath body and the spectral energies of his Shard nature. The two halves would slowly make their way toward one another until they finally rejoined, whilst in the company of Viskas Herg, Morrigan and D.I.V, the four going on to become Guardians and going by the name The Harbingers of Havoc.

Now, as a member of the Harbingers, Kul-Ang fights to regain his memories and learn who he truly was.
