Darklord Mrugor (died MS 5070) was a Darklord and Lord of Dajdorza, making him the Right Hand and third ranking Lord of Helgedad.
Appearance[]
Mrugor had a strange appearance, as a giant man with odd proportions. He had spindly limbs and an elongated head.[2]
Personality[]
Mrugor was strong, ambitious and quick-witted; however, he did not excel in any of these qualities, putting a ceiling on his ambitions of power. Despite being an ally of rival Khatellu, Ghurch surprisingly offered the weak Mrugor a degree of respect, possibly due to Mrugor's ability to kill efficiently. This may have become an official alliance later on in both Darklords' lives.[2]
Dubbed the "shadow assassin", Mrugor preferred unfair fights by ambushing his targets, and avoided fights where this could not occur.[2]
Biography[]
Mrugor arrived on Magnamund with his fellow Darklords in MS 3072. He was appointed the Right Hand of Helgedad by Archlord Vashna, and given the realm of Dajdorza as his right.[2] He constantly tried to prove he was superior to the Left Hand of Helgedad and ruler of Dajaraa, Darklord Khatellu, expressed through constant bloodshed between the two realms. Only the Archlord could halt the violence, although neither Vashna nor Zagarna felt the need to, implying that the constant bloodshed kept them distracted.[1] Mrugor incorrectly-believed that the title gave him a high rank in the hierarchy amongst the Darklords.[3]
In MS 5066, aided by the Tanoz-tukor, allowing the Darklords to operate freely outside of the Darklands, Mrugor and Darklord Dakushna conquered Eru.[4] Then, some time between MS 5067 and MS 5070, Mrugor led a blockade of Bor.[5]
Mrugor died in MS 5070, after Lone Wolf destroyed the Transfusor, causing the Tanoz-tukor to stop working, meaning he could not survive for long outside of the Darklands. For his failure, his spirit was trapped and tortured in the Plain of Despair by Naar.[6]

Vincent Lazzari on Discord regarding the fate of the Darklords."I can assure you that this specific scene in LW20, in the Plain of Despair, did not feature all the villains Lone Wolf canonically slew during his adventures. Simply because there are too many spirits who were specifically punished by Naar for their failures, Lone Wolf couldn't see all of them. And so, among them, you do have Darklord Zagarna, even if not mentioned. As well as the other Darklords that Lone Wolf didn't know personally (considering Claws of Helgedad is not canon in the main continuity). All were judged supreme failures by Naar and punished the same way - this is the fate of the champions of Darkness who don't succeed in their conquests. You can think about all the major servants of the God Naar slain by Lone Wolf - they are here, somewhere in the Plain of Despair, suffering terrible tortures. Cadak was a notable exception, his soul being sold and bound to the Lords of Decay."
