Infested Templar | Church of the Acarid

LORE & BACKGROUND

Once a sworn shield of the fallen champion, the Templar followed his charge into the mire to raise a church in honor of the Sainted Mother. That choice sealed his fate more completely than any blade.

Now overtaken by the Acarid, he is a towering horror that prowls the catacombs and lower halls. His body has been hollowed and reforged, strength amplified beyond mortal limits. He still wields a massive greataxe, each ponderous swing capable of felling even heavily armored foes.

Those who evade the blade face a worse fate. One arm has been replaced entirely by a writhing parasitic maw eager to seize and drag prey close. Candlelight still glints from his armor as he moves, echoing the solemn processions he once led.

His loyalty endures, but it no longer belongs to faith or brotherhood. It has been twisted into instinctive guardianship, binding him eternally to the depths he once sought to protect.
