	When Croak and Dagger were banished by [[Whisper]] and [[Andol Thorin\|Andol]], they were thrown into Caelrogh's home realm. There, Caelrogh saved them from the abyssal, otherworldly creature known as Alioth which was swallowing up all living and inanimate structures, destroying them beyond all recovery in its maw. Caelrogh and what remained of his civilization, and those who were banished to his domain, called themselves '''the Remnants'''. They were working on an ancient device powered by a dwindling vein of magic, which could tear through the plane and into the domain of the entity they believed was responsible for their misfortune. Croak and Dagger ultimately chose to use the device before following up further with Caelrogh or the other civilizations, who were left in the drifting hellscape to fight Alioth as it set itself on their base.

			==Miscellaneous Facts==

			* Caelrogh was inspired by ''the Nameless King'' from the ''Dark Souls'' series

			* Caelrogh was originally supposed to be a herald of Tiamat and one of five apocalyptic dragon riders

			* Caelrogh's name comes from the first "bad guy" I (Kent) wrote into a story in 2nd grade. The name sounded cool.

	Caelrogh had supposedly belonged to a pre-cursor civilization that existed both during, and after the time of the Old Gods. Caelrogh was a decorated General tasked with protecting his people from all manners of threats. One day, a threat from beyond the stars set itself on Caelrogh's people, and despite constant worship, prayer, and sacrifice, the Gods left them. Caelrogh's entire civilization save a few soldiers, were wiped out by this threat. The fibers that connected their realm to realmspace was severed and what remained was left adrift in a hellscape there was no escape from. Somehow, Caelrogh escaped, and swore he'd find the Gods themselves beyond whatever grand door they waited behind, and tear the threads of all realmspace apart so that none could hide from his wrath.

	'''The Black Sun Cult''' was able to obtain possession of the Black Dragon Mask, which they charged with Vecna's mark on Clymene, and used it to rip a tear in the material plane through which Caelrogh and his remnants could escape through. Caelrogh set the material plane ablaze with his dragon Yvirth, secretly occupying Yvirth's body so that his own acted as a decoy. His arrival and the tearing of the plane was called [[Cataclysm]], and was believed to be the prophesized end of days that some texts refer to. Despite his best efforts, Caelrogh was defeated at the hands of Croak and Dagger, and his followers sealed back beyond the stars. Before succumbing to death, Caelrogh's soul was trapped by Kelemvor within her Soul Cairn, and banished back to his home which was nothing more than a wasteland at the mercy of a mad deity.
