Archons of the Way
Three Dericost Undead, probably members of the Filinuvekta, since they serve Geraine IV and assist him in many of his rituals [1] [2]. For a long time, their main task was collecting the Mnemosynes, objects which helped the Dericost to retain their Memories.[3]
This task was given over to apprentices, and the Archons became more active, and were involved in the rituals involving experiments with creatures such as the Gurog [4] [5] and the Bloodstones [6]
Geraine IV's initial plans for the Gurogs were changed, as the Archons failed to create the controllable, unstoppable creatures promised. They did succeed in turning the simple Mattekar into a far more formidable creature, but they failed to impart the loyalty and intelligence needed to make them a truly devastating weapon for the armies of the Emperor. They may indeed be powerful enough to destroy the Lugians, but until properly controlled , they are little more than a failed experiment. [6]
The Archons were tasked to keep the Bloodstone Facility hidden, but failed at that.[6]
They also assisted with Geraine´s mingle with the timelines and portal space using the Book of Eibhil [7] [6].
They were manipulated by the Kemeroi into aiding the attempted release of the "Hopeslayer".[6]
They seem to have mastered the art of being too useful to be killed, while also being too inept to truly succeed.[6]
Their names are:
