Akain is a necromancer and one of the key members of the Twisted Carnival who first partnered with Norman Barley during their time at Carson’s Circus. He possesses the ability to control shadows and, most significantly, the power to animate and control dead bodies like puppets, creating an army of “wardens” from deceased special forces operators and other skilled individuals. These wardens served as the carnival’s cleanup crew, eliminating threats and potential witnesses.
