Inquisitor Maligaro

Maligaro, also known as Inquisitor Maligaro is historical figure of Wraeclast. He was a thaumaturgist, killed during the Purity Rebellion and now encountered in Maligaro's Sanctum.

Lore

Maligaro was a thaumaturgist and disciple of Malachai, one of the Godless Three along with Doedre and Shavronne.

"The trick is to give nothingness,

and to receive everything in return."

- Inquisitor Maligaro

Under the rule of Chitus, he performed most of his work at the Chamber of Sins. He found his work very creative and was considered an artist, but worked with flesh and blood instead of canvas and ink.

Maligaro operated effortlessly,

with great speed and terrible consequences.

Maligaro kept a journal detailing his experments with human flesh, at one point stitching together several carcasses to create the unique Varnished Coat Carcass JackCarcass Jack

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 them into the body. Another of Maligaro's creations is the synthetic virtue gem. In his private life, he was quite eccentric, maintaining a homosexual relationship with his slave Raulo. When the Purity Rebellion overthrew Chitus, the new Emperor Voll had Maligaro burned at the stake.
