Centuries later, in the year 224 AF, Lord Sartan openly proclaimed the formation of what he called the "Deathknights." Controversy immediately arose over who would lead the new guild of evil knights, and scandals erupted at the revelation of corrupt [[Templars]] having applied in advance.

During the [[Death's Heart Saga]] in the early 240's, Sinistar extended his aid to the [[Quisalar]] to further the aims of Death's Heart. However, the revelation of the Quisalar's opposition to [[undead|undeath]], the driving force behind the Infernals' [[Necromancy]], causes the Sinistar to rescind his support. Along with increased efforts from [[Ancient Circle of Druids|Druids]] and [[Sentinels]], the withdrawn forces of the Infernals guild proved catalyst enough to tip the scales in the Quisalar's disfavour. | During the [[Death's Heart Saga]] in the early 240's, Sinistar extended his aid to the [[Quisalar]] to further the aims of Death's Heart.

In 245 AF, the Infernals offered to serve as the enforcement arm of the [[Serpent]] guilds' cartel on the [[venoms]] industry. Two years later, guild conflicts between Ekary Lucoster and the members of [[Twilight]]'s [[Divine Order|order]] culminated in the ousting and city enemying of the Sinistar based on a breach of the Serpent cartel's policy on illegal venoms. Controversies ran rampant over whether Lucoster was the victim of a complex plot concocted by the followers of Twilight, while others attributed mortal arrogance on the Sinistar's part. He eventually regained control of the guild. Sinistar later claimed to enter a state of undeath and built a [[Mausoleum of Ekary Lucoster|mausoleum]] for himself near [[North of New Thera|North of Thera]], resigning scant years afterward. | In 245 AF, the Infernals offered to serve as the enforcement arm of the [[Serpent]] guilds' cartel on the [[venoms]] industry.
