Empowerment of the Soul and the Forming of the Apostles
The Twilight's Hammer cult is hellbent on bringing destruction and havoc to Azeroth. Worshipping Old Gods and Elementals, they have managed to strengthen the Gods and their minions, such as C'thun.

Only known as the Apostles, a secluded group of high-ranking cultists was formed, and made it their mission to break into the defenses of the Alliance and Horde, to bring down the factions from within, and be the front-line of the wrath bringers of the Hammer.

The Apostles of Ruin collective was founded by Dyerius Voidspite and four other unknown influential figures within the Cult. Practicing shadow magic, Voidspite preformed many rituals upon brainwashed cultists, tearing their souls apart and creating Empowered Soulshards, orbs of the encased tortured souls which were blessed by the syphoned elemental energy given to them by removing the conglomerate's source of life through black magics. Voidspite was the only known man or woman brave enough (or able to withstand the intellectual mind trick of the magic).

With the Empowered Soulshards, Voidspite was able to unleash powerful waves of lethal shadows across chosen areas, scarring the land with death, rendering mortal beings from within and eventually forcing them to collapse under the great coercion.

The tests with the shards were kept secret from the rest of the Cult. If the initiates and fanatics knew of this immense power, Voidspite knew a riot would erupt to try and gain control of the crystals.

Voidspite was elected as Grandmaster of the Apostles from these studies, leading them on tasks to plague the rest of the world with the orbs, and a great apocalypse to sunder the world again by instantaneously slaying all mortal beings across Azeroth.

Alas, possession of the priceless objects did not last for long. A task force of 7 agents discovered Voidspite's plot from investigations at Twilight camps, and struck at the head of the beast. They incapacitated him on his route to his first target and removed all of the fragments. But, having no knowledge of the destruction they held, the SI:7 agents accidentally set off the blastwave of the combined elemental fusion. Voidspite barely managed to put up a barrier of Shadow resistance before the waves were unleashed, draining all of his abilities and weakening his entire body.

Avatar of Voidspite
In his weakened state, bound shadow energies to  a loose projection of himself, made from the discarded remains of one of the previous four Apostles of Ruin, which he sent to Stormwind and recruit initiates into the newly reformed cult.

Controlling the image from a secluded location is difficult, but Voidspite is safe from harm. His avatar, however, can be killed/destroyed. Physical damage, though much needed, may render the image incapacitated.
