The infiltrator Pale Whiteblood had been causing a headache to Spearhold for some time. He was very elusive and difficult to keep in the dungeons, having escaped on many occasions.
Already after escaping one execution, Usul finally had the chance of executing him again for his numerous crimes. This time he succeeded:
Roleplay from Usul Soul
Pale Whiteblood, infiltrator of Nothoi was presented to Arbiter Usul, still staked upon the wooden x-beam, within the chambers deep within the prisons. When Usul entered the chamber, the air crawled upon his skin-- damp, with a odour of death to its pungent smell. Uncontrollably the hairs on Usul's arms instantly stood erect. Erasmus had performed his work.
Erasmus approached the 'Pale Rat' and gently slapped the blood-stained cheeks of the prisoner, bringing him to conciousness from his dream-like state, punishing him again with the simple awareness of his reality.
"Excellent work my friend" Usul congratulated his prison guard, "Now let us prepare him for his next journey-- The teaching of Truth and abolishment of Lies"
Usul left the chamber to retrieve an item for the planned ritual. Whilst alone with the prisoner, Erasmus clasped Pales's hair and tugged forcing the prisoner to look directly at him.
"Filthy rat!" Erasmus whispered evily "You men of lies fear Akkan...let me tell you that you know nothing of fear. Akkan is merely a demi-god with aspirations too big for him to handle. You will never understand fear until you know the wrath of Zraath!"
The prisoner Pale was barely concious of the words spoken to him... but lucidity then struck suddenly! He attained the realisation that the face looking down upon him was not the face of the Erasmus he remembered. The sunken cheek bones, red firery eyes and the line of ridges across his forehead indicated to Pale that this was no man after all. The imposing stare alone from this...un-human was enough to instill fear, and he began to shiver uncontrollably, still bound upon the x-beam.
Usul was heard returning. Erasmus turned around sharply-- facial features returned as they had always been. "Ahh Usul, you have the head from the cold store"
"Indeed my friend, please bring me the book" Usul requested.

Usul brough forth the head of the alpha monster Erasmus had retrieved during a monster spawn a few weeks earlier. The top of the skull had been severed exposing the black fleshy brain within. He proceded to read from a page of the huge bulking book which now lay upon a pedestal Erasmus had put in place.
Blood oozed from the self-inscribed tatoo upon Usul's chest, leaving the floor stained at his feet.
"...For you my children will be gifted with the harvest of my body and blood.
My beastly cattle will plague the lands. Those who tame and consume, shall find their place in my temple; Those who deny, shalt succumb to the devastation of their sins...."
They chanted.
"May the Lord Zraath show no mercy to the sinful!"
At that moment, Erasmus placed his hand within the monster skull and tore a clump from the soft fleshy brain. He forced open Pale's toothless mouth and thrust the ghastly mush into it, forcing the prisoner to feast and choke, dark blood overflowing.
When the ritual was complete, the public execution was announced and the Pale Rat escorted to his final place of redemption.
