Story
I. Before he became "The Collector", he was the light and hope of Antia. Intelligent and talented, he could wield many different Naya abilities, something none of the Five Sages could do. Deedlite, one of the Five Sages, thought he was the reincarnation of one of the gods sleeping in the Tower of Eternity. Arthur found Damon a tutor to harness his talents and decided to bring this boy into the conflict against Mac'Haab.

'''II. '''Because of his talents, Damon established his research lab before many did. He helped Aldin understand how to use the prisms and combined them with ores from the dwarves to create the Naya elemental stones. He avoided the fight against Mac'Haab because the stones took all of his efforts. However, the post-Mac'Haab world was no paradise either and required lots of more work to do. In addition to toppled buildings, people's fragile minds must also be rebuilt. The fear in their hearts excited him somehow...

'''III. '''Residents of the city and Damon's followers started going missing. No one knew why until Maria and Vilial accidentally entered Damon's lab and discovered the truth: he was devouring human souls! Just before they became his next victims, Archmage Brandt showed up and sacrificed himself to destroy Damon's body. Still, Damon didn't die because his arcane power kept his soul intact and turned him into a mysterious kind of spirit...

'''IV. '''Damon, now a specter, felt liberated. His physical body no longer limited him. He could devour souls, mana, knowledge and memories at will. Devouring souls gave him instant euphoria as if he lived through someone's life fully in less than a minute. He couldn't conceive of the idea of experiencing this when he was still human. At some point, people stopped talking about Damon. Instead, they called him The Collector. Damon loved this name and considered the souls he devoured an excellent collection.

V. Even though many considered Damon to be part of the Dark Forces, he disagreed. He would devour human and Dark Force souls alike, as long as they were sweet enough. However, things started to spiral out of control, such as his rotten smell and growing desire to kill. He enjoyed turning living humans into dried corpses, possibly a little too much. His only weakness was that he couldn't devour the souls of mermaids in pure water. So he created a legion that recruited intelligent believers to help him taste the most forbidden fruit.
