Template:CharacterInfobox Rashek was a Terrisman from Scadrial.

He leads Alendi to the Well of Ascension and kills him, under instructions from Kwaan. He then takes and uses the power of Preservation, ascending to become the Lord Ruler.

Ascension

As he was using the power of the Well, he changed many aspects of life on Scadrial.

He moved the planet closer to it's star
As a result of the new orbit, he added a number of active volcanoes to the planet, which allowed him to cool the world down a bit
The new climate of the planet needed drastically different plants to be created
He converted all the Terris Worldbringers to Kandra
He moved the Well of Ascension out of the mountains of Terris and build Kredik Shaw on top of it
He becomes functionally immortal, compounding both gold and atium

Lord Ruler

He formed the Final Empire, and conquered the whole of the world. He subjugated all but ten people, who he made Mistborn and allowed them to rule over the masses.

Hero of Ages

He was killed by Vin just as the power of the Well is returning, 1024 years after his ascension.

“He suffered much beneath Ruin's hand, but he was a good man, who ultimately had honorable intentions.”
—Sazed on Rashek's corruption by Ruin. A note on the reverse of the flower picture in a book written by Sazed after his ascension.^[1]
