Totentanzer: Guide to the Hero & Bodhisattva of History
Once known as Diogenes of the Empty Night, the trusted vizier of Lysander Parhelion, Totentanzer is remembered as a traitor who sided with Queen Boudicca. For this betrayal, he was branded traitor, devil, and monster in the empire’s myths.
In truth he sought to temper his friend’s excesses. When Lysander declared himself the living Sun God, Totentanzer tried to stop him, sided with Boudicca, not out of malice, but because he could not stand by while the world was remade into a prison of light.—and failed. He became a lich, bearing history itself as penance. His body is dust, his soul a whisper, but his mind is eternity.
He now serves Boudicca' descendant Lysandra the Witch Queen, —not as sycophant, but as reminder. He guides, warns, and waits for someone to learn the lessons he failed to impart.
