Corik

Corik (the Black Cloud)

Elothean Ferdahl. It was once thought that Corik would be one of the greatest Ferdahls in history, but in the end, his disastrous rule had given the Dragon Priests the opening they needed to conquer all the lands.

Among his other accomplishments, Corik constructed the city of Shard with the assistance of with Queen Morganae. Also built a stone wall (ca. 180 BL) to keep back the Dark Hand, where the Emerald Knights now stand watch.

Remained neutral during Lanival's war though he wanted to fight.

Following his exile from Ilithi, helped Stone Clan in dealing with The Biter.
