  • Akkhan
rdfs:comment
  • Akkhan's standing in the church was low enough to avoid being part of the rituals that would have exposed him to Mephisto's corruption, but high enough to have enough influence to found a new order, for without any real knowledge of the source of the corruption, he couldn't take direct action. In response, he independently (and secretly) founded the Crusader Order, after searching far and wide for warriors of unparalleled strength, for believers who burned with inner Light. He made sure to avoid recruiting anyone with Paladin training, fearful of any existing defilement or corruption carrying over into his crusade.

  • Akkhan's standing in the church was low enough to avoid being part of the rituals that would have exposed him to Mephisto's corruption, but high enough to have enough influence to found a new order, for without any real knowledge of the source of the corruption, he couldn't take direct action. In response, he independently (and secretly) founded the Crusader Order, after searching far and wide for warriors of unparalleled strength, for believers who burned with inner Light. He made sure to avoid recruiting anyone with Paladin training, fearful of any existing defilement or corruption carrying over into his crusade. After rigorous preparation, Akkhan sent this new order into the east to find a way to purify the faith, after preparing a set of writings upon how the Crusaders should be armored and equipped for their crusade. He meanwhile stayed behind to try to fight the corruption directly, a task which eventually cost him his life.
