The Lich

Background: The Lich is an ancient undead sorcerer who is bent on the eradication of all life in the universe until nothing but himself remains. Years prior, the Lich was defeated and sealed away by a great hero known as Billy in a prison of amber for hundreds of years with only few knowing of his actual location. In recent times, accidental circumstances threaten to release The Lich from his prison of amber to once again continue his plans of universal genocide...

Appearance: The Lich is a large monstrous creature who dresses in a large, loose robe with multiple layers and a large cape that is severely torn at its end. His arms are bare-bones with little to no tissue left and his skeletal hands burn with an eerie fire when casting spells. His face is defined by horrific green lights as pupils peer out of his empty eye sockets and pale undead skin is pulled tight against his nose-less skull. His skin is frayed away from his lips to reveal a wicked and perpetual smirk while one of his horns seems to have broken off.

Personality: The Lich is driven by a rather single-minded goal: to destroy all life. He appears to show little interest in anything that does not further his ambitions towards this dark end. He also has an apparent hatred for all living things and wishes for the extinction of all life. The Lich has absolutely no other focus than to cause mass extinction, and when he cannot do that, he chooses to do nothing at all. This shows that the Lich is barely a living sentient entity and more like a machine with a built-in goal. If his goal is achieved, he will simply stay in one spot and do absolutely nothing for eternity.

Unlike most hostile monsters, the Lich does not mindlessly murder anything he sees. He specifically wants to eradicate all life in existence and seems to understand that simply destroying everything in his immediate vicinity wherever he goes is not the best way to go about that. He instead is a deep planner; given his lack of aging, and lack of most emotions, he is more than happy waiting centuries for the exact right moment to do whatever is necessary in order to further his final goal of total extinction, no matter what he believes is the best course of action for that, even if it means making temporary allies to kill later. His motives to extinguish all life are in devotion to the ancient cosmic embodiment of chaos: GOLB (A primordial being embodying Chaos, Entropy and Change itself.); whom he openly revered and had dedicated himself to the pursuit of understanding as its titular last scholar. As such, the Lich strove to be its vassal on the physical plane and causing mass extinction in honor of his patron deity.

He is viciously cunning and quick to learn from his mistakes. He methodically targets people and things that have proven a problem for him in the past by either destroying them outright or using them as pawns to further his own agenda.

The Lich is rather taciturn and speaks only in brief statements. Because he seldom speaks, his words carry great gravity. The Lich's most notable flaw is his arrogance and his single-minded nature. In each case, his defeat has been at the hands of opponents towards whom he was derisively dismissive.

Abilities: Apart from his immortality, the Lich has a mix of unholy powers; The Lich can conjure green flames from his hands that burn through flesh with ease. The Lich can control the minds of people (mind control), either through telepathy or by the mention of their evil spells. He can breathe a dark fog from his mouth which can kill whatever breathes it. He has the ability to possess bodies, even if these are alive or dead. He has the ability to fly and can kill or destroy almost everything that comes in contact with him, even being in close proximity unprotected causes the body to rot away or straight up die. He is also able to practice necromancy, being able to summon undead armies.
