Socorro is a debased lich necromancer (also known as the Butcher of Carrion Hill) who served the Whispering Tyrant in his centuries-long rule in Ustalav. After his defeat at the end of the Shining Crusade in 3827 AR, Socorro went into hiding and has not been heard from since.1

History

In the year 3203 AR the wizard Socorro lead an uprising in the Ustalavic city of Carrion Hill after having heard of the rise of Tar-Baphon as the Whispering Tyrant. Socorro and his followers slaughtered thousands in a display of support and loyalty to the returned lich,2 which earned Socorro the appellation "The Butcher of Carrion Hill". At some later point in his life, Socorro underwent the transformation into a lich.3
