	Lorenth's curse is that he can only feel pain and pleasure through his minions. Minions themselves barely register to him but the pain they inflict is like a drug to him. He tries not to go as far as killing a victim but keeps a status quo, retreating from them so he can savor once again. He believes that by inflicting pain, his victims will see the pleasures from it. He is constantly trying to prove himself and his ideas sane, and takes great offense if accused of being insane. He just wants to enlighten the people for their own good, to the wonders they strive to escape from. He always takes the role of being a leader of men or preacher of the truth, and believes this completely. Because most of his memories are lost to him, finding relics in Otherworld that remind him of his past may be his undoing. If he ever regains his memories, he would switch his alignment to chaotic evil and also be vulnerable to being forever destroyed. He used to be a good-aligned priest and still believes he is such; once he learns the truth, he can be pulled back into reality and then destroyed. Killing the Darklord without collecting all the relics first just causes him to disappear for a day as he reconstructs his consciousness to reappear once again. His minions will retreat into the labyrinth and wait for his return.<br><br>
