Centuries ago, Cadaveris was a proud ruler of the skies, until an insidious curse poisoned his blood and initiated his unstoppable decay. Trapped in an agonizing existence between life and death, his gigantic body has been rotting relentlessly in flight ever since, while fungi and maggots consume his decaying flesh. Every time he spreads his tattered wings over the land, he spews a dense cloud of scarlet rot from his gaping maw. Wherever these cursed crimson vapors touch the ground, proud cities crumble and nature withers into a putrid wasteland. Thus, Cadaveris circles the ash-gray sky as a flying sepulcher, doomed to blanket the world in his pestilence until nothing living remains.
