High Prophet Âchurnas Foreseer, first High Prophet and Keeper of Knowledge of the Enclave, who, after his death, became the first Guardian of the Heart of Kendalar, provided the original inspiration for the formation of the splinter faction which would eventually become the Enclave of the Pureblooded Sith Sorcerers.
Description[]
- Main article: [[Prophecy of darkness]]
"Less than a year before the future destroyer of Tund arrived on the planet, one of the Sorcerers experienced a strange vision. He found himself, he said, standing in the center of a field covered in dead bodies, lit by a flickering greenish glow. He searched the planet for any surviving lifeforms, but found only corpses, none other of the Pureblooded Sith having survived. Eventually, upon returning to his home, he found a stranger of humanoid form whose features were hidden beneath a mask. The stranger grew larger and larger, a terrible shadow stretching out across the entire sky, evil laughter emanating from it as the Sorcerer saw his fellow Sorcerers come to life, only to die once more in terrible agony, their bodies contorting in the thickening greenish haze.
This sorcerer was the Prophet Âchurnas, a True Sith mighty in the Force who, according to legend, could manipulate even the distant future. He has been described as a Pureblooded Sith of average height and slender build, with a retiring disposition and a quiet voice which could, nonetheless, be heard clearly even at that distance at which a shout fades into obscurity. He was known among his peers for his great power, and many suspected him of scheming to gain absolute power over the Sorcerers just as Karnak Setsu did nearly 4,000 years before. Whether or not he really sought this is unknown, but he did warn his fellow Sorcerers of his vision. Most dismissed it and ended up welcoming their soon-to-be murderer, but a handful of Sorcerers felt that safety was the better part of valor."— An excerpt describing Âchurnas Foreseer from Valermit Mindseer's "Concerning the Fall of Tund", written for the Archives of the Dark Lords of the Sith on Byss.
High Prophet Âchurnas Foreseer, according to legend, was the owner of a soul-stealing blade which drew him toward the Dark side. Shortly before he died, he destroyed the blade himself, and was among the Ruling Councilmembers who wrote the law outlawing the use of any such weapon by members of the Enclave.
