Over many years, Melich had many names and done many great, yet terrible deeds. Long time ago, he was one of Mordekaiser's sorcerer. However, since then he went his own way, serving kings and emperors as a dark adviser, providing them with knowledge of the dark magic and corrupting their minds. He was seen in the shadows of the history numerous times, usually influencing events in the Empire of Noxus.
Nevertheless, he felt his marks all over Valoran, even before he was serving Mordekaiser. Some say that he is the first dark mage to walk on the soil of Valoran, a man, who sold his soul to demons for immortality. While these speculations and rumors have some thought, they aren't entirely accurate.
Melich isn't a human and wasn't one for many many years now, because while his body is human, it was taken over by a demon long time ago, even before rise of Shurima. Millenniums ago, when humanity just began to develop, a young man discovered a spring of magic.
Demon of corruption and sins, the one called Melich, was born together with humanity. It hidden itself from the eyes of others, creeping a round at nights, stealing people away, scaring and torturing them. Tribes of men tried to fight this demon, but they couldn't do anything with only spears and rocks, demon was just simply too strong for mortal men. However, a young man, who found a spring of magic and drank from it, gifted with new-found arcane powers, was a mach to this demon. When young man returned to his tribe, he showed his powers to other and promised to vanquish the demon away. The night came and demon returned to attack the tribe, it encountered that young man, who fought demon with magic. While simple magic powers weren't enough to kill the demon, the young man used them to imprison the demon in his own body.
Suppressed and imprisoned, demon could do a thing, only whisper in the ear of the young man. Years gone by, while man of this story was tormented by demonic whispers, slowly going insane. He left his tribe, trying to find magic spring of his youth. He thought, that another drink might cure him and take away the whispers, but he was wrong. As magic water flow thought his body, demon inside of his was also strengthened by it. With each and every drop of magic water, demon got more and more influence over the man. Tormented even more, man slowly drifted away from all humans and disappeared from history for hundreds of years. When he appeared again, the man was fully consumed by the demon inside. Magic water, which was drank by the man, gave his body immortality, but his mind was dead, as Melich, demon buried inside, had taken over. While naturally Melich wasn't able to use magic, human body, he was residing in, could. Under many different teacher he studied, and later on taught others. He experimented with magic, usually dark magic. He many numerous of followers, who follow him blindly, as Melich can charm and captivate people with his words and magic. He started a religion of himself, even before he was serving Mordekairser as one of his sorcerer. Some say, that it was he, who taught other Mordekaiser's sorcerers how to perform neromantic ritual to bring back Mordekaiser from the dead. Same is said about the ruined king, who turned blessed isles into shadows isles - Melich was influencing it in one way or another.
Even if he possessed an immortal body, it is still getting corrupted by vile magic, slowly getting older, until one dark it will crumble to dusts, so Melich is emerging back from the shadows, in search for a new body. He preaches about his greatness, powers of immortality, resurrection, greatness of sins and desires, gathering follows. He has a plant, dark and sinister plant. When his current body breaks apart, his demonic body will be released. He calls it and a descend of the god, teaching his followers what they will have to do next. He lied, manipulated and lied eve more, only to get his hands on a new and stronger body. He taught his followers an unforgivable, which causes users to lose their souls and fuse their bodies into one and perfect vessel for demon to take. Not only that, but he still hold some of magic water, to gift that vessel with immortality. The day his old shell breaks, he will get a new one.
(Melich) - you can poison me, you can stab me, you can hang me, god will not let me die until the day he will emerge from my body and change the world into paradise. He gifted me with powers you can't even understand. My god showed me the paradise and i will be welcomed into it, with love and eternal joy. Even when i die, my soul will be together with my god, in eternal happiness and love, like in no place else, as there could be no place better. A paradise without suffering, grief or pain, where you are free, happy and loved forever. I will be invited in such place, because i follow the one and true god. What will happen to you, after you die? You will rot in the ground, while demons will be tearing your soul apart, in the depths of the underworld you will spend your eternity, suffering, because you didn't accept the love of my god. (Melich talking to the band of bandits, who tired to raid one of his gatherings, and after his speech and demonstration of his dark magic, he turned these bandits into believers)
