Colress

**Colress the Colorless Horror** was one of the abominations known as "Echoes of Aldeare", a side effect of the Fall of Aldeare along with other such eldritch beings such as the Yaddie. It was a great horror with a great hatred for magic and it’s users, often starting anti-magic cults that practice the sacrifice of mages. He also created the vile Gray Spell that creates an anti-magic zone and drains both power and emotion from the poor victims inside. He was a foe of Baccob and later the Champions of Magic who would bring about his end.

## History:

### Creation:

Colress was formed during the Fall of Aldeare along with the other Echoes. He drew in power that leaked when the old magical celestial was broken into five, filling his hunger for magical power but also his hatred of those who use it.

### Great Horror:

He travelled the universe, bringing horror and death whereever he went.

He created the Gray Spell, teaching it to many dark wizards and warlocks in his war against magic.

### Imprisonment:

He would come in conflict with the sorcerer Baccob who swore to defeat him.

He spent years studying the Echoes of Aldeare in trying to find a way to defeat him.

Years later, he, with the aid of his apprentice Rhodes Tarheel, imprisoned him with a great seal.

### Conflict with the Champions:

Many years later he would encounter the angry young man, Simon Inconnus and offered him power in exchange for helping him break free. The young man started a cult in his name, tricking many of the downtrodden into worshiping the Colorless Horror. They poached many magical creatures, and then killed them and drained their special blood into vials to bring back to his master. He used the combined power along with Baccob’s stolen staff and the Gray Spell to break the seal, unleashing the horror. But before he could use his cult to gain his full strength back, he was interrupted by the Champions of Magic. Simion was defeated by Paul Miller, Edward MacDavient and Kelly Bluecold and with the rest of the Champions, they drove off Colress who fled to a world of wild magic that had recently been exposed to the universe. Colress desperately traveled to heal himself. Here he was approached by the Elder dragon Dirth Nerku who offered to aid him in his Vengeance against the Champions and brought him to the magical world of Teranzair where the two would free his fellow Echos of Aldare Ezankiz, Urvang, and Kozizak who brought terror and doom to that world.

Unfortunately for him, he was pursued by the Champions who with great struggle finally managed to kill him. But nothing is certain, as Echoes are incredibly hard to kill, so there may be a chance of him returning...

## Personality:

He plays at being aloof and godly but is in fact quite petty and power-hungry. He openly despises magic, delighting in the death of those who practice the Art.

## Powers:

**Eldritch Powers:**

**Spawning:** He, like the rest of the Echoes of Aldeare, can create smaller and weaker versions of himself to do his bidding.

**Anti-Magic:** He can drain the magic from his foes.

## Trivia:

* He is one of the major villains of PMiller1’s Champions of Magic stories, adapted to the Keyvaile Universe.
