### Status

Deceased

**Dargor** was a Main Character and an Antagonist in "*MLIV:TO*".

He was one of the most powerful Vahnatai warriors who has been serving them ever since his awakening that happened around 200 years ago. However, he eventually left his own people, in favor of joining a (seemingly) much more powerful race of people- The Neotline- and their mighty leader Alric of the Unknown.

Dargor served as the Secondary Antagonist of "*MLIV:TO*" 's sole Extra Part.

## Overview

*Dargor is a true warrior of old. A master of the arcane arts who has been studying the mysteries of magic for more than just a few mere decades. His range in understanding the material (and the spiritual) world is massive and he is considered to be one of the biggest pathmakers for the Neotline, forging their path toward total dominion with little to no remorse.*

*His life as a child was quite unique. While most of the Vahnatai children studied the ways of the blade, he turned his eyes toward the ways of the unknown. Unraveling the mysteries of heroes and villains long gone, he learned how to be useful in the world, at the cost of being shunned by Vahnatai and other races alike. A truly unfortunate blow for him, but his future was still bright and undiminished.*

*For centuries, Dargor continued to hone his skills and speak with the spirits of the lost times, His mastery of the spiritual arts became well-known by the locals of his lands. Many times, he has been seeked out by Vahnatai warriors and mere pilgrims for help with certain situations, be it desires to cure their loved ones or solving major disputes between the numerous clans within the Unknown Lands. He even became slightly revered in the eyes of those whom he was willing to help... as much as a strange creature like him could be.*

*But the life of a wiseman was not enough for the established Vahnatai. He has always been looking for opportunities that can help him rise in the face of the dark world above him. And it was no mystery to everyone around him. So, soon after he came to know about the Neotline- a mysterious and much more ancient race than the Vahnatai themselves, he wasted no time to desert his own post as a thinker and soldier to join a race much stranger than his own.*

*In the eyes of his own people, Dargor was now an outcast. Many Vahnatai attempted to assassinate him, although their efforts were easily cut off by his invisible army. Even so, the Neotline were more than willing enough to welcome a powerful alien being like him with open arms. Their leader- Alric- was most intrigued by Dargor's phenomenal abilities and made him one of his most trusted men. And it did not take him long to become the most trusted one.*

*Dargor is an eccentric and mercurial servant of the invisible world. A puppet of a greater power, given physical form and tasked to teach the world about what they are unable to see with their own eyes... in a cruel, harsh way. Still, he is always the ever-faithful servant in the eyes of his alien master and his magic is much more powerful than a human being can ever imagine.*

***Will the spirits of the lost ones keep him afloat for long?***

## Personality

Dargor is a distant individual, at the very least. He prefers to spend time reading incantations aloud in his chambers and does not pay much attention to the events that are happening outside of his master's fort. However, he can easily switch from docile to hostile in the right situation, showing a perfect demonstration of cunning and battle prowess, often surprising his reckless opponents with the magic that the Spirit World has bestowed upon him.

In addition to being able to enjoy (and appreciate) solitude at its fullest, Dargor is also known to be a very committed creature. His mastery in magic is not to be trifled with and his ability to understand and absorb the knowledge hidden deep within the Spirit World makes him even more crucial in the ways of the world around him. Despite being an individual who has never respected the good within this world, he is still a vital part of the universe. His mere presence leads to great heroic deeds, although nobody is sure how this is supposed to signify his importance.

Even though Dargor can be quite disrespectful toward the heroes of this world, his ways are not devoid of honor. Deep inside, he is a stalwart, passionate and enthusiastic defender of his master's ways and is always faithful toward the one who was willing to accept him for who he truly is.

In the end, Dargor is a creature that only respects the Spirit World. Despite the fact that he can be quite distracted at times, he is not a force to be reckoned with. Anyone who is willing to deal with him must do so with extreme caution. Even the slightest mistake might cause him to turn them away.

## Death

### Killed By

* Geralt Kaos *(Caused)*

On the onset of the grand battle between Geralt's group and the Neotline, Dargor decides to face the young hero himself. They engage in a fierce battle that leaves the young man incapacitated and unable to strike back for a while.

Even so, Geralt refuses to back down. As soon as he burns half of Alric's archers to death, he lunges forward and aims for the surprised Dargor. The vahnatai warrior attempts to defend himself by reinforcing his own skin, but Geralt manages to slice him twice in the chest before he can activate his defenses, leaving him severely wounded and prone to a counterattack.

* Neotlinean Archers *(Caused, Accidental)*

As soon as Dargor unknowingly stumbles forward, unable to control himself, one of the stray arrows that Alric's archers launch at Geralt's allies flies toward him, piercing the vahnatai's shoulder. Although the wound is not a bad one, it manages to distract him and allow someone else to keep the fire burning.

* Jett Norwood *(Caused)*

Using his incredible skill in evasion, paired with his high agility, Jett is able to trick Dargor into looking the other way. Then, just as he becomes confused again, he pushes him into a pile of dark chains.

As soon as he gets caught in them, the hidden mechanism activates, trapping the vahnatai warrior and sealing his hate.

* Kiara Kaos

Still angry about her beloved daughter's departure, Kiara decides to take on the vile creature herself. She uses her sword to pierce through his head, although the process is very arduous due to the fact that Dargor's body is reinforced by a steellike material.

Eventually, Kiara manages to break through the defense. A flaw in the shield that protects Dargor proves to be his ultimate undoing and she stabs him in the skull, ending his life and watching as his entire body is burned by the light magic within her sword.
