Akar Kessel
(A-car Kess-el)
Over a hundred years ago, Kessell was a bumbling apprentice mage who stumbled upon the power of the Crystal Shard and attempted to conquer Icewind Dale as the self proclaimed "Tyrant of Icewind Dale". He died in an avalanche caused by his abuse of the Shard. Now a wight, he seeks once more to bring the dale under his influence.
