Description
Once a planetar, Adimarchus found himself corrupted when, in his endless battles against Graz’zt, he fell from grace and attempted to invade Mount Celestia to conquer and command its forces to overwhelm his greatest foe. He failed, and the conquered sliver of Mount Celestia was ejected from the Upper Planes, settling in the Abyss. This sliver was thence named Occipitus, and Adimarchus plucked out his eye as a symbol of his new domain. This eye is the only thing identical between his two most common appearances; he both appears in an illusion of his former angelic glory and in a corrupted, black-skinned and wingless husk.
Those cultists who follow him often degenerate into mummy lords or another such undead monster after death, as Abyssal power reanimates those Adimarchus wishes to employ.
