	Because he had taken his own life at a (relatively) young age, Kozek had few supporters within the temple. Whereas raising a [[Shade]] or reanimating a corpse is trivial, the process of creating a litch requires many dedicated rituals, plus coveted space within the Sanctum ~~Satorum~~; not to mention the complex and challenging process of embalming and maintaining the body. While it can be done in less, the typical time between death and litchdom was then around five hundred years; and as such there were very few litches. In Kozek's case, he languished in death for two hundred years before his glorious rise.		Because he had taken his own life at a (relatively) young age, Kozek had few supporters within the temple.

	Kozek is believed to have been born in [[B.G.A.]] 3310 on the [[Arcol Steppe]], probably in the Buroak Temple, one of the larger city-states of the region. Very little is known about his parentage or childhood, but given his later accomplishments, historians suspect his father was a high priest and his mother a chantress of considerable acclaim. For a long time, antiquarians believed they had identified his mother and father from extant records, but the two individuals named were later determined to have lived roughly two hundred years apart.

That he would become a litch was never in question, but Kozek demanded more than to become a mere necrosage. At that time, the necromancers did not support ritual suicide; to take one's own life was considered a sacrilege. Although there was no penalty or shame attached to the practice, it was still considered highly unorthodox when, about the age of fifty, Kozek took his own life to begin his immortal litchdom.

It may have been in reaction to this peril, in combination with his own desire for power, from which he derived the Grey Temple ideology.
