The Soul Breaker purpose it to capture the souls of Ohngwe and oppress them into service of its master. Which meant it desired to bring ruin to all Ohngwe, killing their worshipers,destroying any other their works and foiling their plans and machinations. The Sword also seeks to destroy the Crown of Azhaka and the Left Hand of Udarak. This obsession is well known to Rayche and when Elal is not in his avatar form, he allows the sword to seek out these items through others it finds worthy. When it is needed by either Rayche or Rayche/Elal it instantly teleports itself to him anywhere in the Omniverse. It can take up to d10 turns to arrive.

It speaks to its users, other than Rayche, via telepathy and is known to have an intensively curious personality. While it is very serious in its mission during its time away from Rayche/Elal, it is a jovial item that loves to conversate with its current wielder.

Personality

Rayche Blackstone was born as a mortal in 26,125 B.F.A. in the newly founded nation of Kish, and had humble beginnings as the apprentice of his clans Heilark. During a mission to locate some medicinal herbs and plants the young heilark was attacked by a giant cave bear. He barely survived the attack, and made his way through the mountains, the bear stalking him. Broken, badly beaten and bleeding to death he tumbled into a pit that lead him to a long forgotten shrine of Elal. Bleeding to death he reached out to the deity pleading for help. His plea was heard by the Archangel Khontash who arrived to find the young Rayche breathing his last. The Archangel intervened noting that "it would be a waste of this life to just die." But before the Archangel breathed life back into the dead Rayche he offered him the choice to live and become the avatar of Elal. Rayche agreed and swore an oath of immortality to the Archangel to become Elal's avatar. Rayche rose from the dead and granted him the title, Grand Maji.

Rayche has grown into being the avatar of Elal as well as the Grand Maji of Elal. Both roles are important to the deity as well as those of the church as he represents the connection between the arcane and the divine. He has lived most of his life in mystery, attempting to stay out of the "noses of others". He rarely talks about his past as the Grand Maji and the avatar of Elal. During the times when he is not acting as the avatar he has spent his entire life mastering the arcane arts, as well as a number of other skills of the social and combat types. He has mastered every component of his craft from teleportation to astral projection. He spends most of his time protecting Kralis from mystical and other dimensional threats, and he monitors the powerful undead through out the Prima Terra.

He is a series of paradoxes. He is steadfast, but entirely unpredictable; merciless, yet kind. He commands respect and inspires fear.

Over the 30 thousand years of his live he has become a superb strategist and tactician, forming alliances with other powerful individuals to utilize their resources for his ultimate goal protection of the Omniverse. However, he is not above making mistakes as the church of Azhaka and several other entities have sabotaged his plans several times, something Rayche admits is due to underestimating their abilities. Despite his mercilessness, he has a deep affection to his children and is willing to guide them.
