Dorlin

Dorlin was^H^H^H is a necromancer who lived near some orcs. The orcs were mostly alive and not skeletons. There were skeletons, though.

Original Research
Adil and some other guy touched a nice pendant which sent them on a spirit journey back to the past, where they witnessed the orc village. Dorlin seemed to be a swell guy who used skeletons for good. Unfortunately the village was attacked by a hoarde of nongood skeletons. Dorlin had Adil and the other guy try to get a magic box which would save the village, but Adil probably fucked up time somehow because that didn't work out.

That really cool skeleton farmer guy who deserves his own page
Dorlin probably made him.

Original Research
The original adventuring party found Dorlin seeming to be dead, but apparently it was a false alarm. Dorlin's skinless bones were trying to reach a black gem in a ritual circle or something. Vaelor helpfully handed him the gem after a whole like 2 seconds of deliberation. The black obsidian gem must have been full of life energy because Dorlin got better and instantly teleported away, leaving some nice potions. There was surprisingly little morality debate, mostly because the spirit journey convinced Adil and Flimwick that Dorlin actually was a legit cool dude.

Dorlin 2: Shock-Type Boogaloo
The new adventurers found him in a tower with a giant positive energy field and ate his crackers. He intends to give his aid in the invasion of High Crest to rescue it from the cult. Meanwhile, refugees from the Everfree are hanging out, growing potatoes, etc.
