This Dark Druid is the de facto head of the Black Fang, the puppetmaster behind the scenes keeping all the other villains in line. About as enigmatic as they come, Nergal has grand ambitions to bind Dragons to his control, but to realize them, he needs vast amounts of "Quintessence," and to gain that, he intends to cause vast amounts of death and destruction. Striking up an alliance with the mad Lord Darin of Laus, and with the aid of his creations, the Morphs, he has set the stage for a war that will provide him with all the quintessence he needs.
