'''Abaarhis, Chieftain of Sorrow''' is a [[Scorn]] [[Chieftain]] and former member of the [[House of Rain]] who would come into supplication in the [[Forum:Cult of Anziluu|Cult of Anziluu]] by a Hive tome. He is considered to be the leader of the '''Scribes of Anzû'''.

==Biography==
Abaarhis was once one of the ancient Scribes of the [[House of Rain]] and created the [[House of Rain#Prophecies|prophecies]]. However, unlike the prophecies of the Kell of Kells, he made the prophecy of the coming [[Whirlwind]], the abandonment of their [[The Traveler|Great Machine]] and the coming of a great "[[Oryx, the Taken King|Shadow King]]." Many believed that he was driven insane, calling him the ''Mad Prophet'', only for his so-called delusions to be proven true when the [[Black Fleet]] arrived, followed by the assault of the Taken King, Oryx. 

Abaarhis took with him what he could after [[Riis]] fell, chasing the Traveler across the stars to make even further prophecies. Unlike the other members of his House, he would be stopped by the Awoken within the Reef, destroying his [[Ketch]] and killing Abaarhis in the process. 

===Life as Scorn===
Shortly after the [[Scorn]] Breakout of the [[Prison of Elders]], Abaarhis's body would be recovered and resurrected as a Scorn by [[Fikrul, the Fanatic]]. He was bestowed by Fikrul a Void Staff, similar to that of Fanatic's but it possessed a crystal of Void Light which was taken from [[Hiraks, the Mindbender]]'s collection of Hive artifacts. 

Seeing that he was given a second chance at life, Abaarhis would use the Void crystal, a connection to their once Great Machine, to understand even further prophecies. He would take hold of the [[Kell's Grave]] to conduct his own experiments, taking the title of ''The Alchemist'' for himself.

===The Boundless Tome===
Though he would continue to see new prophecies, a dark presence became to cloud Abaarhis's insight, the very Void crystal within his staff that been corrupted by the Hive God of Truths and Fate, [[Forum:Anziluu, the Ravenous|Anziluu, the Ravenous]]. The whispers from the God of Fate would drive the Alchemist mad, sacrificing Scorn in supplication to the Hive Prince as tribute. 

Eventually a grand sacrifice would be made to the Hive Prince deep within the [[Hall of the Exalted]] of the [[Jetsam of Saturn]]. Anziluu bequeathed to the Alchemist an ancient tome, "Writings of a Mad God," a storybook with a tale similar to that of Abaarhis's own life. Now enthralled to Anziluu's will, the Alchemist would become the ''Chieftain of Sorrow'' and the first of the ''Scribes of Anzû''.

===Scribe of Anzû===
Acting as the leader of the Scribes of Anzû, Abaarhis would serve Anziluu's every whim, preserving the Weave of Fate by making the furture less predictable outside of the [[Forum:Realm of Apocrypha|Realm of Apocrypha]]. He would also help his master lure other entities to be enthralled by offering them more of Anziluu's ancient tomes and manuscripts.
