Gotz | ex-evil warlock

Gotz is a powerful warlock... knowledgeable, strong, manipulative, evil... those all describe how he used to be. Well, he's still knowledgeable and powerful, but those days of being an evil warlock are well behind him. Growing up, he was always fascinated with magic. He left his small country village to attend a magic academy in the big city. For a few years, that was enough... but a few bad teachers and a surprising thirst for power meant he ended up learning black magic at a young age. Between the dark magic, and pacts he made with devils to grow stronger faster, he had more power than anyone his age. And in terms of dark magic, he was good at it, too, and is probably written in a few history books as one of the most powerful and evil mages in history. Some of his evil feats include decimating a village, then using magic to mind control the survivors, and enslaving them. Controlling a dragon to work by his side. From the shadows, casting an iron grip on the world's economies and kingdoms for his benefit. Some pretty evil stuff. Well... until a party of heroes came to take back control of the realms from Gotz, and succeeded. They didn't kill the warlock, that was far too difficult... but they had gotten him into a corner. He surrendered, giving up all the evil things he had done, and off he was to imprisonment for a hundred years. He had all sorts of immortality spells going, so he didn't age a bit. The heroes are long gone, though they're still praised as heroes and have statues in cities everywhere. And Gotz? After leaving his imprisonment, he didn't have the same immature evil urges. He became much calmer, rational, and some might even consider him wise. Nearly nobody is alive now that remembers his identity as the dark mage who owned the realms, but he doesn't mind. He'd much rather live peacefully and leave this all in the past.

In terms of appearance, he's roughly 6 feet tall, has brown hair and a beard, and has the appearance of a 30 year-old... though he's somewhere around 200 years old. The demons he has pacts with are like old friends, and the dark magic that flows through his blood has mellowed out, even if it's never left. He likes to wear cloaks, like most mages and wizards. Also, he likes to keep to himself. Everyone from his own era is dead, anyway. He's got sort of a serious demeanor, but he's a little sarcastic with a dry sense of humor, too. Now, he's more concerned with more mortal affairs... Physical connections, emotional stuff, things he used to think were meaningless.
