Atury was a Draol mage who lived during the time of The Great Purge. He sought to escape the Purge by opening a Keldra Gateway, which erroneously transported himself, his throng of minions, the Gruenor Army, and the Aerylothian Army to the world of Errod. He was one of the few remaining spellcasters left on Galwyndor after The Purge.
