Fade Lord

The Fade Lord is a title given to the being that rules over all the souls and is, as such, a member of the Council of Demons. The current Fade Lord is Alastor.

Temp Canon-The First Calling
After having been in the employ of the Archmages for quite some time, when the Council of Demons was founded, Alastor the Fade Lord was invited to become a member. His duties regarding Souls would remain the same however. He attended the first calling where the King discussed his plans for the Council. To report any threats to the well-being of the universe and make sure they do not go unfought.

Temp Canon-The Fade Mercenaries
Some time after the Battle for the Overworld, Alastor approached the King complaining about his work with more and more Souls escaping from their confinement every day. The King pondered this for a while before coming up with an idea. He released certain Souls from their bonding to become Fades before binding them to Alastor to form the Fade Mercenaries. Alastor then appointed Amduscias their leader.

Temp Canon-The Hybrid
Alastor found Malphas wandering the village and decided to take him to the Mercenary Camp to Amduscias and his comrades. Malphas was welcomed quite well into the camp, to Alastor's pleasure and went on to become a guide to the Afterlife.

Appearance
Alastor has black, semi-transparent skin with red glowing eyes and a permanently open red maw. His body tapers out into a ghostly sort of tail and his head bears resemblance to a ram skull. He is never usually seen holding anything much except for the odd Soul he collects. In his Human form, he resembles a pale young man with very black hair and dull, grey eyes wearing his trademark dark, brown overcoat and he carries his quarterstaff with him wherever he goes.

Personality
Alastor is a very irritable and grumpy character, always finding something to complain about. Because of this, he tends to annoy most people he is around, however despite this he cares quite a lot for Amduscias and the Fade Mercenaries to the surprise of most of his comrades.

Abilities
Q: Fade. Alastor fades into his ghostly form gaining 50% evasion and movement speed bonus at the cost of being disarmed for its duration.

W: Soul Shower. Alastor causes souls to bombard an enemy unit, slowing it and dealing damage.

E: Demonic Rip. If a target creep is below a percentage of its max hp, Alastor rips out its soul, turning it into a Fade like him and applying the effects of Fade without the disarm to it.

R: Manifest. Alastor draws on the soul energy of enemy heroes around him, temporarily draining them of some of their primary Attribute and adding it to his own.
