Known across Archanea as the Dark Pontifex, Gharnef is a powerful sorcerer who allies himself with the Shadow Dragon, Medeus. Once a student of the White Sage, Gotoh, he was corrupted by the Darksphere and now only desires to bring the world to ruin. It was Gharnef who poisoned the Archanean King, Hardin’s, mind, sparking the War of Heroes.
