Varu Blackrobe is a powerful mage who owns a tower led by those under his command. When Darius the Cur rebelled against Lord General Pozak, Varu took this opportunity to liaise with Darius and join the Abtu Kahn Army led by Argol the Risen. Varu, Darius and Argol were defeated at Grosven Square by the armies of Pozak and Light Priestess Enyi.
