The Dead King

Character from Prince of Thorns by Mark Lawrence

An entity of pure entropy building an army of the dead — the existential threat that makes Jorg's petty conquests irrelevant and his monstrous talents necessary.

Also known as: The King of the Dead

What They Know

• An intelligence that commands the dead and builds armies from corpses — connected to the Builder-era data-space
• May be an emergent consciousness born from the accumulated death data of nuclear war — a corruption of the AI network
• The existential threat that makes Jorg's conquest necessary — without unification, the Hundred Kingdoms fall kingdom by kingdom
• Patient, accumulative, and relentless — its army grows with every death in a world that produces death constantly
