Meredoth was born to a pair of talented and wealthy wizards in the Alphatian Empire in the outlander world of Mystra. He received precious little nurturing from either of them however. His father was an obsessive constructcrafter with no time to spend upon child who was instead entrusted to the care of golems and their like. His mother was a vain enchanter who found it most convenient to discipline her child with magic. The Alphatain Empire was a magocracy and Meredoth met this parents expectation by demonstrating an aptitude for magic which would ensure his eventual membership in the nobility of the land. The child was drawn in particular to necromancy which was generally held to be an avenue of research no less worthy than the others. In his early teens, Meredoth watched her mother addicted herself to the drug tsongha and withered away within a span of a few months.
