Archdruid Cadak

Cadak (or Archdruid Cadak) is a tall man with sharp features and a mane of flowing platinum hair. He is a worshipper of Shamath, and was the head of the order of Cener Druids. He is the primary antagonist during the first few books of the Grand Master series.

Appearances[]

Cadak first appears in The Plague Lords of Ruel. He is the leader of the Cener Druids of Ruel. Lone Wolf encounters Cadak shortly after breaching the latter's personal chambers. Cadak attacks with a magical fire, and when Lone Wolf survives, recognizes the intruder as a Kai lord. He then summons an Exterminus to attack Lone Wolf. Upon the Exterminus' defeat, Cadak flees by teleporting himself away.

In the next book of the series, The Captives of Kaag, Cadak becomes lord of the former Darklord city of Kaag. He creates a plan to lure Lone Wolf to Kaag by kidnapping Lone Wolf's friend Banedon. Lone Wolf indeed ventures to Kaag to rescue Banedon, and Cadak attacks him again with a Zavaghar. However, Lone Wolf successfully slays the Zavaghar and escapes with Banedon.

Following this event, in The Legacy of Vashna, Cadak attempted to resurrect the Darklord Vashna from the Maakengorge by summoning Demoness Shamath to Magnamund. He nearly succeeds. Lone Wolf was banished to the Plane of Darkness, but he defeated Shamath there and wrested the Deathstaff - the weapon that was supposed to resurrect Darklord Vashna - from her. Returning to Magnamund, Cadak tried to delay Lone Wolf till Shamath could arrive on the continent, but was killed in the ensuing duel. Lone Wolf then used the Death Staff to close the Shadow Gate Shamath was travelling in, forcing the demoness back to the Plane of Darkness.

Finally, in The Curse of Naar, Lone Wolf faces Cadak's spirit again in the evil god's kingdom. Cadak attacks him psychically, but to no avail. After that, he tries to deceive Lone Wolf by claiming he is repentant, and offers Lone Wolf a ring that he claims will allow Lone Wolf to leave the realm of the Künae. Lone Wolf smartly sees through Cadak's scheme and defeats the ring (which is actually a giant worm in disguise), after which Cadak's spirit fades from existence.

Statistics[]

  • Combat Skill: 50/48/45
  • Endurance: 35/32

Cadak's stats are weaker if Lone Wolf does not have the Sommerswerd and uses Kai-surge or Kai-alchemy.
