**Frizum Kriuth**, also known as **Alzotl** or the **Unholy Diviner**, is a Lich Lesser Deity Dread Master of the Faith of Zaldrōmon (Iythosian Pantheon) as the God of Undeath, Hunger, and Rot. He was originally the God of Death and Undeath in Zi'eer's Pantheon, before rebelling against him, and losing access to his own soul.

Frizum hailed from the Maw of Creation, located in Zi'eer's World, although moved to a small, isolated part of the Ethereal Realm after his banishment, and learned how to shift across different planes. One of the only weapons Frizum carried on him was a six feet long greatsword powerful enough to cut through virtually anything, named Dissension. Frizum was also a dragonrider whose mount was Cruor, a dracolich greatwyrm.

## Description

### Appearance

Frizum's body is a decayed, rotting amalgamation of flesh and bone, although only his face is completely bone, and his skull is disfigured, taking on the shape of a deer's. He is often seen wearing a plain gray shirt, covered by a dark coat, a set of belts, as well as high black boots and dark-gray pants. Covering his second set of eyes is a thick black furry cape, which goes over his shoulders and covers most of his chest as well. He is adorned by several magical artifacts, such as the Leviathan's Scriptures and the Primordial Shell, and most notably, the Eye of Ravens, which constantly looms over him.

### Personality

Frizum is a very loud, arrogant and careless individual, who prefers doing things on his own, as he considers that to be much more efficient. He considers everyone else a burden on his shoulders. However, there have been a few exceptions. Frizum is hardly ever loyal to one individual or group of people, therefore trusting him with anything can be difficult. Though, recently, Frizum has begun cooperating with others more and daring enough to risk his own life for others. As it stands, Frizum's stay in Agriosa has dramatically changed him as a person.

## Relationships

### Zi'eer

Frizum's one true goal and motive is to kill Zi'eer and leave of him no trace. Nothing more needs to be said.

### Chaser

As Zi'eer's most favored plaything, Chaser is one of Frizum's main targets in his plan to dismantle the entirety of Zi'eer's flock. Frizum shares a special hatred with Chaser, one even stronger than his hatred towards Zi'eer.

### Navae

Navae is the only member of Zi'eer's flock that Frizum considered sparing. He has no real reason to kill her, and he realizes that she doesn't find it very pleasant to work for Zi'eer either. However, if he were to engage in combat with her, he will not hesitate.

### Lannis

Despite his resentment and hatred towards Lannis, he has an undeniable respect for him. Lannis stood up for Zi'eer on several occasions as well, and never let go of his morals, although he never truly rebelled against Zi'eer, unlike Frizum.

### Nerva Cathor

Nerva is the only person that Frizum would willingly serve without anything to gain from it. His respect and allegiance towards him is undoubtable, and he would risk his own eternal death if it meant completing a task given by Nerva. However, Frizum would never truly give his life for Nerva.

### Ailish Ocethion

Despite Frizum and Ailish's battles in the past, and her use of a divine curse to weaken and limit his power in the first stages of his Agriosan immigration, he's learned to respect her decisions, and saw her as a mighty ruler. Once, that is. Now, he sees what a drunkard wreck this so-called mother of dragons is. Not long after her divorce with Talisa, and her constant infidelity, he had lost all respect he had for her. Still, he remains in the Council of Advisory merely out of pity. He constantly reminisces on their battles, and hopes that somehow, she'd pull herself back up.

### Talisa Nathalanorn

When she once bore the name Eldra, he closely worked with her as a fellow apprentice of Nerva to complete his objectives, growing rather close, even in his mostly primal and bestial state. Once she 'died', and was reborn as Talisa, he was disappointed upon finding out about her leaving Nerva's academy. Upon meeting her again in Agriosa, married to the one who constantly tried to kill him, he was pleasantly surprised. Although, he learned to tolerate the two, and eventually joined the council as an advisor. Upon finding out about her divorce with Ailish, he couldn't blame her. Up until he found out about her relationship with Nahalia, then the idea that all of these people were just sex-driven maniacs was stuck in his head.

### Corvo Atilan

Having worked closely with both Corvo alongside Penny, Corvo grew on him as a rather charismatic and friendly individual. Of course, he learned of his true, rather cold and morally lacking nature after several missions with the man. Despite his cold hearted nature, Frizum recognizes Corvo's reliability and the ability to find a solution to the most puzzling situations.

### Penny Holzhausen

Having worked closely with both Penny alongside Corvo, Penny grew on him as a rather awkward and wrathful individual. After several of the trio's missions, he realized just how troubled this woman is, and her odd relationship with her two other 'clones'. That's what he considers them, anyways. After the longest time, he finally managed to recognize Penny as her own person, and not just a mistake of a reincarnation.

### Saralyn Holzhausen

He first considered Saralyn as an impulsive, angry, jealous, and extraordinarily stubborn individual. In his time in Calradia, he has constantly had to face her in battle, and it always ended in her presumed death, or her retreat. Eventually, Frizum decided to give up, and stopped his attempts on her life. He has come to terms with her after their reunion, with the help of Nahalia. Now, he considers Saralyn a mere acquaintance, no less, and no more.

### Yorreyl Reddhigwen

Yorreyl has always struck Frizum as an independent individual. One that can make his own decisions, and only sensible ones, that is. Despite the hidden hatred that the two definitely share, Frizum has also shared more moments of calm with the drow than ever, ever since he entered Agriosa. Now that the two had to work more closely together, Frizum grew to tolerate Yorreyl, and has even befriended him.

### Maré Lacerta

Frizum doesn't talk much with the large humanoid crocodile, and they've never truly interacted much. Despite that, Frizum knows and recognizes his uncontested expertise and logistics in the field of sea battle.

### Nahalia Drumwind

Frizum thinks of Nahalia as a rather childish, somewhat impulsive, and enigmatic individual. He could never truly guess what was on her mind, even after reading it with psychic magic. He realizes her magical potential, and is almost disappointed at her lack of realizing it herself. However, he never brought himself to bring it to her attention. He almost considers Nahalia as a child of his, due to having to take care of her and prevent her from doing anything suicidal many times on their pirate misadventures. However, a certain resentment for the tiefling grew after she entered a relationship with Talisa, as he considers her part of the reason Ailish and Talisa separated.

### Nero Neretzes

Always, Frizum has disliked Nero, mainly for the operations to wipe out Nerva's presence in Calradia entirely that he mostly personally led on several occasions.

### Cassandra Melisande

Cassandra and Frizum have both worked together on several missions, and Frizum gained his connections with Azrael through her. He never truly tolerated her, and she constantly angered him, even when they were working alongside eachother. After she betrayed Azrael and ascended to godhood, under the name of the Raven Queen, he was deeply disappointed. More so once she killed both Talisa and Nahalia, prompting him to take action and track her down. With an entire strike team of notable Agriosan figures, he finally got rid of her for good, or so he thought.

## Character Information

### Proficiencies and Abilities

Frizum is a dread necromancer and a pale master who mainly utilizes necromancy and various other forms of dark magic. He uses his curse magic and necrosis to weaken and decay his victims until they become nothing more than mere ashes. Despite this, Frizum is not limited to the dark arts, and he has a wider, much more sophisticated knowledge and a virtually unlimited array of magic

Magic is not his only forte, his ability to physically overpower even the largest and most formidable creatures grants him an edge over any magically resistant foe. Frizum is virtually immortal as well, in the sense of being ageless, and also due to his ability to switch his consciousness and his soul's power to any corpse he chooses, an ability granted to him after his forced lichdom following the separation of his soul at the hands of Zi'eer. It is also an ability that makes him unique from any other lich with a phylactery.

His method of gaining more arcane power is through one simple spell, which saps the life energy from its target.
