Mentioned many times in the game's lore, Barriq is the reason all of this started in the first place. You will meet him for the first time in the next update! Barriq is an Ancient Taurean mage, who founded the dark order. He has a longstanding connection with Priscilla. Although he founded void magic, it is unclear if he is maleficent in nature. When standing next to many members of the team, they barely stand above his beltline. (edited)
