The Kingpriest was the high cleric in the doomed city of Istar long ago, before the Cataclysm. He was an unspeakably beautiful man with powers that surpassed all other clerics in the world. The Kingpriest, however, was a very arrogant person. His arrogance and intolerance of people who he saw as Evil (i.e., people whose thoughts and ideals different from his) led him to issue the Edict of Thought Control, which involved renegade mages (employed by the church) casting random ESP spells on people to read their thoughts. If the person was thinking something that the Kingpriest saw as Evil, they were killed. In his arrogance and haughtiness, the Kingpriest commanded the gods one day to come to Krynn and fight alongside him to destroy all evil in the world. This extreme act brought about the Cataclysm and the destruction of Istar.
