Akhlaur was a powerful conjurer who lived in Halruaa during the mid–12th century DR.[1]

Activities[]

Akhlaur was only interested in increasing his power by researching dangerous magic. He eventually summoned a laraken that was beyond his control and he was taken against his will back to the creature's native plane.[1]

Akhlaur's disappearance left a permanent gateway open to the Elemental Plane of Water, causing an unending flow of water to pour forth into the area known as Akhlaur's Swamp. Akhlaur's Tower, which contained a wealth of magic items, was also found here.[1]

Possessions[]

This powerful conjurer was rumored to own magical items that most wizards only dreamed about, leading to a steady supply of adventurers delving deep into Akhlaur's Swamp with hopes of finding priceless treasure.[1]

History[]

In their youth, Ahklaur and Zalathorm Kirkson worked together to develop a spell that granted them both everlasting life.[2]

Aklhaur was rescued in 1373 DR thanks to the efforts of the wild elf magehound Kiva and the sorceress Tzigone.[3] After being released from the portal, Aklhaur launched an attack against Halruaa, triggering the Wizardwar. During the battle, Ahklaur faced Zalathorm, and they killed each other.[2]
