Arch Lich

Ingame Description
An Arch Lich (alternatively, Lich King, Dark Lord or Black Emperor) is a term traditionally given to any Lich who manages to 'unite' (batter until they reluctantly follow) the various Liches and Necromancers of the Lichdoms under themselves, normally in order to invade Chevalie to the south.

There have been many Arch Liches throughout history, most meeting their end after being betrayed by other Liches mid-invasion of Chevalie and the rest being slain by some Marcher hero or another. There is still never shortage of those willing to try, however, and more Liches claim to be Arch Liches than Liches who claim they will be one some day.

The two most famous Arch Liches in history were Vilas Venslau, the first Lich, and Silas Stavro, his apprentice and betrayer.
