Biography
Dragon mage in the final convergence
Oganj is an infamous dragon mage recruited by Jornak with two students and promises of imperial treasures. He wants valuable artifacts and survival more than loyalty to the primordial cause. He enters the battle as overwhelming magical force, fights multiple factions, and withdraws when offered the imperial orb and crown through angelic mediation. His transaction with Zorian's side exposes the limits of Jornak's coalition and Quatach-Ichl's ability to command peers.

Oganj remains dangerous and self-interested, with the final bargain confirming that he was an ally of price rather than conviction. (Chapter 97 and Chapters 101–105)
