Sloth-Amok was an infamous necromancer, wizard and unholy priest. He was a tall, dingy man with scaly shoulders and aloof, toadlike features. From his warty head to webbed feet, his skin was a deep, venomous green. During his time in Zamorazamaria, he dwelt in the dark Tower of the Bat.
Sloth-Amok plotted to become the ruler of Zamorazamaria by marrying princess Zamaria, the daughter of King Philiboustros, the ruler of the city-state. In order to do so, Sloth-Amok kidnapped and held prisoner prince Elagabalus, Zamaria's fiancé, and demanded her hand in marriage. His dark arts revealed that only Condom the Trojan could foil his plan and so he set out to kill him.
