Maligaro

Inquisitor Maligaro

Maligaro was a thaumaturgist shortly before the Cataclysm.

Lore

He worked for Malachai in the Chamber of Sins as one of his Godless Three, along with his apprentice Doedre Stamatis.. It was Maligaro who invented the idea of making humans even more connected with virtue gems than gemlings, extracting the very essence of the gem and inserting it into the body . He found his work very creative and was considered an artist . Another of Maligaro's creations is a synthetic virtue gem. In his private life, he was quite eccentric, maintaining a homosexual relationship with his slave Raulo . When the Purity Rebellion overthrew the Emperor, the new Emperor Voll had burned Maligaro at the stake .

Maligaro is attributed to creating four powerful artifacts:
