Publication history

Key characters

• Wismerhill – the main character, half-dark elven, with an unknown past and an extraordinary destiny. Formerly a nameless elf, his name was given to him by Heads-or-Tails when he combined the two words of the place he originally came from. He became the new Emperor of Lyhnn after defeating the previous emperor. When he was indoctrinated by the Black Moon, he gained clerical abilities and after defeating an undead prince, he gained the abilities of a magician. To become truly powerful, Haazel Thorn told him to go through the ritual of Negation to be a Lord of Negation but he will lose his humanity permanently. To console him, Hellaynnea suggested they should be married along with 8 other women from different race and tribe to ensure his line will continue. He did so and after that he became a father of 8 daughters and 1 son.
• Haazel Thorn / The Black Moon – an archmage and demigod, claiming to be a god, who extends his power through his own religion. The son of Lucifer, he plots to destroy the Empire of Hagendorf.
• Hagendorf – the former Emperor of Lyhnn, warned by The Oracle about the coming of the "Metal Hound" who will overthrow him. He was fatally wounded by Wismerhill within his own palace. Dying, he issues a prophetic warning that if they keep following Wismerhill, they will bring the world its eternal damnation. His soul was eaten by Haazel Thorn after he died.
• Frater Sinister – corrupt and treacherous leader of the Order of Light, he also plots to overthrow the Emperor. He joined Wismerhill to be a vassal due to their mutual hatred of the Empire and was indoctrinated to the Black Moon religion. He still wanted to be Emperor and plotted to overthrow Wismerhill when the time is right. He met his end when he tried to take Hellaynnea to be his mistress in a summoning ritual but was killed by her since he wasn't strong enough to control her due to her new power she gained when she became an empress of hell again.
• Prince Parsifal – commander of the Knights of Justice, devoted to God, allied to the Empire.
• Methraton – the Ultimate Mage, enemy of the gods and ally of Wismerhill, he is the subject of its own spin-off series, Methraton. He hated the Gods because his late master was killed by them eons ago.

• Hellaynnea – a female demon, who becomes Wismerhill's new lover and eventually his first wife.
• Ghorghor Bey – a gigantic half-ogre, an impressive mass of muscle and brutality.
• Heads-or-Tails – an elven warrior with two magical, intelligent swords. He was raised by dragons when he was young, then trained in the arts of thievery and swordsmanship by the Thieves Guild.
• Murata – a samurai.
• Shamballeau – a mage, he became Wismerhill's magic teacher after he gained the abilities of a magician.
• Pepette – a young girl and the only person who can control Goum.
