The Plot Thickens: A Brief History of Emperor Belos
Before we start sketching, let’s dive a little deeper into Emperor Belos’ story. Originally a human named Philip Wittebane, he arrived at the Boiling Isles from Gravesfield in search of his brother Caleb. Over time, his bitterness and resentment towards witches and magic grew. Assuming a new identity, Belos deceived the witches into believing he was their only hope and became the emperor of the islands.
In his quest for power, Belos sought to destroy the Demon Realm and return to the Human Realm. Along the way, he encountered characters like Luz Noceda, the Golden Guard Hunter, and Raine Whispers. Despite his nefarious schemes, Belos ultimately met his downfall when the Collector destroyed his physical form.
