Ignox

Ignox appears as a high-ranking Magus with a long career, serving in the upper echelons of the underworld. Initially he is presented as a respected, erudite, and law-abiding mentor who guides Leylin through the deep levels of the Magus World and lends him aid in matters related to inter-world trade. However, later events reveal an astonishing truth: Ignox does not act independently. He is an extension, and possibly a clone, of the Distorted Shadow, one of the ancient supreme rank-8 Magi and one of the principal antagonists. This hidden identity determines Ignox's ultimate role in the Final War.
