Entropy

This article refers to the Guardians character. For the force, see Entropy.

Entropy is a higher being, having lived for million of years if not for eternity. this being is referred to as an Ancient, as well as the Archlich and the Guardian Queen. This specific Ancient lords over an empire, commanding lard fleets of soldiers, mainly comprised of wraiths, with the higher officers being largely mortals such as humans or certhi. The empire, little of which is currently known, is at war with an unnamed civilization.

In this war, Earth has been noted as a great strategic position, and has been marked for occupation by Entropy's forces. Guardians is set during the time of the deployment of the first invasion wave, a secret task-force of wraiths sent to survey the planet and its capabilities before full occupation.

Entropy is known to have a rivalry with the Archlich, and may have been influenced in the decisions regarding Earth based on the fact that earth is essentially the prison of the sleeping Archlich.

The entity, until the events of Guardians Book One, has been imprisoned in a massive crystal, essentially trapping it. It is able to communicate with the outside world, and manages his empire from the crystal, around which he has build a massive fortress. This crystal does not however completely entrap him, as his aura of decay is still able to escape the confinement field of the crystal, allowing the law of entropy to exist as we know it. If the crystal were to be broken, the universal rate of decay would vastly increase, exponentially growing every 100 light years closer to the entity.

The entropy entity may not have been the first, as recovered celestial texts speak of an entity with much the same qualities, known by the name of Azazel. It is known that the entity was created from the law of entropy, basically becoming the embodiment of the law of entropy. Perhaps it was not the first entity to take up the mantle "Lord of Decay".
