The Faceless Man

The Faceless Man is a major antagonist in the campaign of Elderain: The Fallen Kingdom. He is a dark and unknowable being of immense evil who resides in the lowest plane of the Abyss, and his purpose is to bring an end to all existence. He is the one who appeared before Grandmaster Zhang and granted him the knowledge to write the Unnamed Scroll, the one who took Thak Jr. and gave him the powers to become the false Godslayer, and the one who gave Robert the powers of the true Godslayer upon his birth.

Describing him as "The Faceless Man" is something of a misnomer, as his form is truly incomprehensible to any mortal who sees him: it is simply an attempt to describe him in terms mortals could understand. Even when looking directly at him, the mind is unable to comprehend or remember what it is seeing (hence "Faceless"), and is simply filled with immense dread and fear. Though he does not speak, he is able to communicate telepathically, as he did with Zhang while he was locked away in his prison.
