High Priest Shamash of SOLAK is a character in MARDEK.

Background

The High Priest of SOLAK at the Sun Temple in the desert west of Aeropolis. Like the other priests, he's sworn a vow of celibacy and isolation, and spends all his time in the temple, worshipping a deity nobody's really fond of. He doesn't consider it a very fulfilling existence, but he'd never admit that, even to himself.

Involvement

Shamash gives Mardek the ★ Warding Stone to place as his mission. He also tells Mardek that a mysterious man with an eyepatch came to the temple to visit. Once Mardek finished his quest, he gives Mardek the Solakian Platemail and 5000 coins as a reward.

Personality

Shamash seems to be fairly benevolent, and is of the Light element. There is not much his personality can be based off of, except that he thanks the knights graciously for their time after the Warding Stone quest is completed.
