Lethchauntos the Black was a powerful and evil mage[1][2][4] active in the Sword Coast as of the 10th century DR.[3]
History[]
At some point prior to the Year of the Sky Riders, 936 DR, Lethchauntos travelled to live among the orcs of Uruth Ukrypt, led by the shaman Wund.[1][2][4][5] While there, he crafted the Ettin Axe of Uruth as a gift to the orcish realm's first king, Uruth,[3] and at some point he parlayed with the sage Orfidel. He was believed to be one of the first known owners of The Nathlum, a tome of poisons and evil magic, although he lost possession of the book during the Orcfastings War of 936 DR.[1][2][4]
