Biography[]
Before heading for Khanduras, Eamon had a son, who in turn had a son of his own. They were living in Caldeum when Eamon left with Leoric and his forces to journey to Khanduras, where Leoric set up his seat of power in Tristram. During the Darkening of Tristram, Eamon remained in the town, trying to save lives.[1]
As Leoric descended further into madness, he ordered Eamon to seal the caves near his manor, in order to protect his estate from the "traitorous rabble" in Tristram. He informed him that Archbishop Lazarus had bound some spiders to his will,[2] and ordered the caverns filled with them. Eamon was unable to get the king to change his mind, and sorrowfully ordered the Royal Guard to obey the king's command, desecrating the ruins within the caverns.[3]
When Leoric was killed by his knights, Eamon was dying from a sword wound. He was buried in a tomb and had Leoric's Crown sealed with him.
Over twenty years later, Eamon was resurrected (likely as a result of the Fallen Star. He was confronted by The Nephalem, who sought Leoric's crown. Eamon tried to prevent them from claiming it, but failed, dying a second time. The crown was broken, and The Nephalem wondered if Eamon had done this himself, to prevent anyone from abusing it. Neverthless, the crown was reforged.[1]
