Well of Sorrow lasts for one round.

Trivia

Release

• Released with the Faction launch (2019.06)
  • Agathon is based on an old IKRPG model, "Curator & Discerning Beast, Nonokrion Order Infernal". Despite a superficial resemblance, Agathon is much more detailed and far larger.
  • While Zaateroth goes by "she", Omodamos goes by "he", Agathon goes by "they", as seen in their POV in the Hengehold Scrolls and is as such the first confirmed non-binary character in the setting.

Lore

The entity called Agathon has been transacting insidious arrangements with humans of western Immoren for centuries. Countless talented but impatient and greedy arcanists have been twisted to serve the Nonokrion Order as infernalists through the far-reaching schemes of Agathon. Though a creature of subtle power, will, and persuasion, Agathon is also a fierce battle master who takes delight in rendering lesser beings powerless and reminding them of their mortality. What those beings call magic is simple thought to Agathon, as reality bends and reshapes at a whim.
