Colonel Hellmann

Colonel Hellmann is a major character and primary antagonist from the fan-made module Castle Falkenstein (Module). From his perch in Castle Falkenstein (Location), he uses human sacrifice and perverse arcane rituals to commune with dark and unnatural forces and gain hellish magical power. To gain the sacrifices he needs, Colonel Hellmann has been calling his troops to kidnap villagers from the nearby Borcan village of Patterborne.

History

Following Falkovnia's loss to Darkon again in 722 BC, Vlad Drakov looked to other, more covert methods of gaining power. Colonel Hellman left for Kartakass hoping to learn the secrets of arcane power there but failed to come back with anything substantial. Hellmann then turned to Hazlan, where he met the Hazlani witch Lannel. Lannel tempted him with dark knowledge of the worship of dark forces but would not bring him the true secrets he sought without marriage. Hellmann acquiesced and took her back with him to Falkovnia, where he tortured her to wring out more secrets before he ultimately murdered her. As she perished, Lannel cursed Hellman and told them they would join together someday. Now, his knowledge still incomplete, Colonel Hellmann makes dark pacts to learn still more forbidden lore from dark entities.
