Once a knight guardian to the royal crypt of King Nitok, Alkayne was amongst the oldest undeads amongst the empire's subjects, although not as blindingly prodigious as the gravelords, royal guards or close aids of The Prince Of Death, he was no nobody either, having stood with the undead during the first war against life and avoided destruction was proof enough.
This zombie was a born leader, for him, having to build up a personal army had been child's play- He also was an excellent warrior of course, wielding a halberd wrapped in the undead empire's banner, knowledgeable in a few battle arts meant to empower troops under his command and wielding a powerful innate ability allowing him to produce and manipulate necrotic lightning as well as frigid winds.
