History
Otar was the Nordic chieftain that ruled over city of Ragnvald during Merethic Era. He was known as fair ruler and successful in battle, but his mind became corrupted by unknown forces which led him to madness. He became a Dragon Priest and subjected his people to cruelty until two Nordic heroes, Saerek and Torsten, put him down.

Unable to defeat Otar, Saerek and Torsten sealed him in sarcophagus and locked him with two skull keys each of them kept. They pledged to guard him so that Otar never may come back to life again. The city was eventually abandoned, but Saerek and Torsten stayed behind as his guardians.
