Leshrac, the Tormented Soul, is the elemental guardian of the evil truth of all creation beyond our benighted comprehension. With the elements of nature and the Chronoptic energies of nature's blasted core at his beck and call, the pristine natural world will soon mirror its horrifying counterpart as he ushers it to chaos, decay, and suffering.

Nihilosophy
Leshrac is a nihilist, for he has no use for those who believe that the cosmos will reward benevolence. He might have gotten this nihilism from the fact that doing good means naught and there's no point in doing good, since he's painfully aware of the truth of nature that will torment everyone, regardless of what good or bad they did in life.

Knowing that only he sees the truth of all nature which is torment, suffering, and decay, Leshrac laments our ignorance to what he knows about reality. And so he sets off to make us learn about this horrifying truth against our own will, spreading torment and suffering to others with the Chronoptic energies that also agonize him, so that everyone can learn their true nature which is exquisite and neverending agony. His cruelty and sadism is linked to his inclination to inflict suffering. As for bringing about the most decay as possible, he does this by blasting and blighting nature.

His brand of wisdom is also said to be bleak, which may be further proof of his nihilism. despairs when he dies. This also makes him a pessimist philosopher. eager to learn what's worse

A true nihilist himself, Leshrac swears allegiance or subservience to no one.

Personality

 * Leshrac seems to be proud of his four-legged body, reviling beings who only have two legs. In addition to that, he reviles beings with physical abnormalities. He sees the form of the Enchantress as a disgrace to four legs for some reason.
 * He is so twisted from his former normal self that he feels alien in the natural world. He relates this with Puck, who is also alien to nature.
 * This self-knowledge of him being the only entity who sees the truth of nature has made him arrogant, if he was not like that before his transformation. He even humiliates others upon killing them but realizes his humility upon dying. His tendency to humiliate others might be a part of his sadism.
 * Leshrac is generally an unhappy creature. His twisted mind is often in a state of brooding, sometimes producing agonizing insights that painfully manifests on his physical form. Compared to most Heroes who cheerfully and confidently declare "It's in the bag", he says it without those two. He hates fun and is a buzzkill to others.
 * The wicked vines that feed off of his anguish, black thoughts, and foul deeds suggests that he has these three aspects as a part of his evil personality.
 * According to a rogue shade of the Phantom Advent Spectre minimap icon.png Spectre, Leshrac has an ire that they consider insignificant.
 * Perhaps his ire is a resentment or a reaction to his torment or he's furious since he often attacks others angrily, such as reviling and impugning them.
 * Not to mention that most of his voice lines have him talk with a raised voice. That being said, Leshrac's wrath might just be an indiscriminate hatred towards all existence.

Motives of Chaos and War of the Ancients
Leshrac often speaks of a state of absolute chaos,   which he seeks to achieve by tipping the balance of our world. In order to achieve this, he must bring about the most indiscriminate desolation to this world and its inhabitants. He achieves this by blighting nature itself, twisting it into a blasted world (just like its blasted core) and utilizing whatever resource he has for the purpose of achieving imbalance. Those who are unfortunate enough to be sentient and animate are destroyed alongside the world that they dwell in, plus they are treated with a trip to the heart of all existence to see this unpleasant truth of nature, alongside other twisted intentions that Leshrac has in store. He also states that he must restore this state of imbalance, implying that it has already existed before and he is merely bringing it back.

There are several reasons that motivate him to do all of these awful stuff. First of all, this Tormented Soul feels compelled to share his torment to others. Not only by inflicting suffering to those who cross his path, but by unlocking the innate torment that everyone has within them by enlightening them with the horrible truth of nature—the very same way he realized that his whole existence is a torment. However, what really drives him to do such foul deeds is his thirst for dark knowledges. Still unsated from learning the horrifying mystery at the heart of nature that altered him into the being that he is today, Leshrac desires an "end to it all" which he believes may allow him to learn this worse mysteries hidden by the Impurities at the heart of existence.

Perhaps this is what motivates him to participate in the war of the Ancients. Should he fail, he will be sentenced to what might possibly be a state of never-ending torment.

The Impurities
Leshrac is the self-proclaimed guardian of the Impurities. On some occasions, he gives them tithes of Gold for unknown reasons. It's unknown what use do the Impurities have for gold. That aside, the Impurities are his source of healing (especially with Regeneration runes ) and power, despite them being the source of his torment.

He invokes the Impurities with his actions, possibly to show his devotion to them. When he dies, he will mention them out of lament for some reason.

Lastly, he seeks an "end to it all" which he believes will allow him to learn the worse mysteries that they hide.

The Void
Speaking of Leshrac's desire for an "end to it all" to learn worse mysteries, this desire may imply a connection to the void. Upon killing him, Inai will say that a death by his hand is the only end that one like Leshrac could meet. Being destroyed by the void may align with what Leshrac wishes for. Although Inai's words to Leshrac may be interpreted as the former giving him a death that only a wicked creature such as him deserves.

Ash the Defiler, another nihilist and inhabitant of the heart of nature just like him, seems to be related to the void. His nihilistic view of existence makes him think that everyone is a fitful light in the dark ready to be snuffed out, inevitably returning to the state of nothingness that's functionally no different from the professed state of order that was once their existence. He also thinks of the "abyss" as comforting.

Further evidence that supports his relationship to the void is in his item Tormented Crown. void ember

Allies
Fitting for his nihilistic nature, Leshrac has no loyalties. Thus he serves no higher power or entity other than nature itself, professing himself as its darkest agent.

Still, this apparent loner can get along with others who have something in common with him. Alienated in nature, he seems to get along with who's also alien to nature.

Despite Leshrac's unfriendly nature, the may align himself with him because of his quadruped form. However, the latter (as an enemy) believes that the form of this elemental is a bastardized version of a centaur's body and that he is unworthy of his form.

also sticks with Leshrac, likely due to the both of them being four-legged creatures.

Siltbreaker and Leshrac have a lot in common, but these similarities are not enough for the former to not kill the latter. This unnatural elemental finds a kindred spirit in Leshrac, because he's also a walker between the planes. Upon killing him, he expresses his disappointment for he had high expectations for him. Despite this, Leshrac thinks of him as a biped abomination. This may just be a reference to Leshrac from Magic: The Gathering though.

considers it a waste to kill Leshrac, because he had plans to join him to his side. What he plans to do alongside the nihilistic elemental is currently unknown.
 * Seeing how they are both wicked creatures, he would've appreciated if Leshrac joined him in inflicting suffering on others, especially the revenants of Ashkavor's people.
 * However, he may have meant to include this tormented soul in the dark reservoir of his people's tortured souls, allowing them to suffer even more with Leshrac among them.

Enemies
In accordance to his brand of nihilosophy, all who encounter Leshrac shall have only grief and destruction upon them. None shall be spared. As such, the evil nihilistic creature is disliked and reviled by many for his crimes against creation. Even death reviles this fiend. By his own word, he's a mass murderer and may have committed genocide.

Leshrac dislikes those who have only two legs, as well as those who possess physical abnormalities and those who are freaks. This includes the following: The form of the seems to be an issue for some Heroes, Leshrac included. He thinks that she is a disgrace to four legs.
 * is an abomination disliked by him, because he is a mess of parts made from corpses.
 * The same reason applies to the, since he's an unnatural being made of many parts taken from bovine and simian animals in nature.
 * As a wingless Skywrath, is disliked as an abomination by Leshrac.
 * Perhaps Leshrac reviles because the undead archer believes flesh to be unnecessary, making him an abomination in Leshrac's eyes.
 * 's form, which is a mix of cervine and simian features, is probably what makes Leshrac think of him as a freak.
 * The is a freak among the ogres because of his polycephalic nature. As such, Leshrac dislikes him.
 * Leshrac seems to know that the is a freak among the Drow, since she looks nothing like her people.
 * With 's demonoplasty warping his entire body into something "unrecognizable" from his previous form, Lion is a freak to Leshrac.
 * being a freak should be a no-brainer since he is just a withered corpse of his former self.
 * Perhaps the most interesting part of this is the . Perhaps he's a freak to him because Sven implies that he's ugly.
 * may be a freak to Leshrac because he has weird feet that have claws instead of nails. Who knows?
 * Lastly, the may be a freak to Leshrac because of his lack of a face. Or perhaps it's because of his overall alien appearance.

Leshrac once did something bad to a woman acquainted with. As such, he spared his life following this event, but swore an oath to kill him the next time he saw him after this wrongdoing to avenge her. Even as allies, he very much disagrees with fighting alongside this nihilist and finds it difficult to forgive him for what he's done. doesn't like Leshrac. She seems to be familiar with his kind and is surprised to see him besides the others that she has met, plus she has a very bad relationship with an unnamed female character who will get mad at her for killing Leshrac.
 * It's interesting to note that Leshrac's beliefs, which encompasses torment and suffering, clashes against Donté's hedonism, which is basically about the pursuit of pleasure in life.
 * It's possible that Hoodwink has met Ash the Defiler before, hence her saying that she has met Leshrac's kind before.
 * This is because she was in the Continuum Vault where Ash can be found in the Weald of Torment. She went to the Vault to imprison the Beast there using.
 * Thus, while she was in the Vault, she may have chanced upon Ash in his Weald.

Physical Form
Leshrac's previous form from when he was still a philosopher is unknown, but a remnant of his former appearance can be still be seen in his current form. His face is a good indicator of what he used to be–his most notable facial features are his wide, flat nose and blank yellow eyes–features that can be seen on the Oglodi people. It's also worth noting that the Oglodi were once an intellectual race consisting of esoteric artists and philosophers, the latter of whom Leshrac was possibly a part of given his background.

Transformed into an evil elemental by the horrifying mystery at the heart of nature, Leshrac is at one with this lurid and vile nature. His form resembles that of a Centaur's body, but its features are twisted and unnatural. Stony outgrowths form his weird looking antlers and the shoulder growths on his equine torso. Unlike the front legs of a horse and other ungulates his front legs have can bend towards and away from his body. He has three-toed hooves and there are runic markings all over his form, of which we know nothing about its meaning. A liminal being, he exists half in the material plane and half in its heart. His body emits a faint glow at all times. Like the horses and other similar ungulates that his form is based from, he may sometimes paw the ground in his idle animation. According to Traxex, she surmises that his flesh is tough.

His physical form bears host to the same Chronoptic Crystals that allowed him to see the heart of all reality. These crystals jut out of his back, his shoulders, and the back of his skull by default. They are pink or purple in color, and may be the source of his Chronoptic power. The crystals on the back of his head may multiply and grow even longer, replacing his own antlers. These woeful spires are nourished by each wave of Chronoptic energy that passes through his warped mind.

This unnatural form can be warped further by his manifest will. For example, Leshrac's agonizing insights can manifest beyond the mind and onto his body, causing them to burst from deep within. These painful insights manifest as spiky outgrowths that burst out of his flesh, sharing the agony of his mind to the body as well. Leshrac's anguish, black thoughts and foul deeds have made him the host of an evil growth of vines, a twisted kind of wisdom that feeds and thrives off of those three aspects of Leshrac.

A sip of the tainted waters from his nature has irreparably corrupted his body with a motley of unnatural vegetative mutations. This corruption has caused a growth of branches on his arms, which he uses to channel great power through them. There is an unnatural growth of stone-hard fungus on his shoulders and back, and his tail has been transformed into a weapon that "pulses desolation" probably referring to his Pulse Nova. This effect has reached his curved horns as well, which permanently corrupts the souls of anyone who touches them.

Death and Immortality
It's interesting to notice that Leshrac's life can be learned through his death and rebirth. Just like all living creatures, Leshrac's heart holds a spark of life that will fade when he dies. But unlike other living creatures, the life that was given to him by the Impurities is unnatural, and thus even his death is unnatural. Perhaps, his death is unnatural to him since he is reviled by death itself, a natural end to all living things. Thus he won't get a natural death like all things, so he gets an unnatural one instead. Or maybe death purifies impure entities like him because death ends his torment, an inherent impurity deeply rooted within him by the elements that compose him. However, his death isn't permanent, and he returns to the foulest heart of nature when he dies to reform himself.

From the heart of nature, the alignment of his elements are restored and the Impurities unite in him, restoring his form and his unnatural life.

We learn from this reincarnation process that Leshrac is composed of the Impurities, the impure elements in this vile heart of existence, which confirms his nature as an elemental. This should explain why Leshrac is stated to be at one with nature, for he is a sentient and congruent extension of the foul nature that he is from. We also learn that Leshrac is immortal because death doesn't send him to any afterlife (e.g. the Underscape, the Seven Hells, the heavens, etc.) like every other being. He is reviled by death and thus rejected for being so unnatural, thus he is sent back to his cloister instead when he dies, before restoring his life and physical form from there.

Elemental Powers

can purge elements,

capable of making stuff impure? hence "the impurifier" whose purpose includes purging the elements.

It's interesting to note that this so-called "impurifier" kills people by purifying them. Ah, the duality of Leshrac.

Even our natural world isn't safe from him. Leshrac warps nature to his vile will to blight and blast his surroundings. It is possible that all of these destructive actions against Nature and its inhabitants can help him achieve his ultimate goal of bringing the world into utter desolation and chaos.

Powers
Leshrac's mastery of the elements and the Chronoptic Crystals allows him to effortlessly manipulate our natural world around him as his weapon. This makes him a powerful being who can destroy entire armies and demolish nature itself with his mere presence. Twisting nature to his vile will, a is observed as the ground shifts beneath his hooves, opening fissures that consumes his enemies in the earth's chasms. A closer look on this ability shows that it uses Chronoptic energies to work its destructive powers, as seen in the picture to the right. Enemies stricken by this are soiled for some reason, probably because the sudden ground movement discharges the soil around. Also known as the "Edict of Death" to Leshrac, his fluxes Chronoptic energy from one plane to another, manifesting bursts of said energy that evaporates anything it touches. Besides destroying others, this evil decree shares Leshrac's impure torment to others, suggesting that the energy is the source or cause of his torment. Leshrac ignites a spark in the skies to cause a massive that rains down indiscriminate streaks of lightning upon entire enemy armies. has no lore to describe what it does outside of gameplay, besides it being a reference to his nihilosophy. This foul body of Leshrac sparkles as he emits waves of damaging energy in a luminous, manipulating the spacetime fabric itself to destroy lesser beings around him.
 * Leshrac states that he "cracks the bones of earth" when he uses this ability. With the aforementioned meaning of "bones" in this voice line, it is possible that this spell breaks deep into the earth layers that compose the structure or the skeleton of the planet itself, compromising the very structure of the earth and damaging it greatly.
 * This ability is said to be an act of revenge from the earth itself, for reasons unknown.
 * When he is equipped with a staff capped with a shard of haunted Chronoptic Crystal, he can call upon more of these crystals from the ground below, breaking the earth in the process. Just like what they did to Leshrac, the crystal's powers can bring eternal torment to others.
 * The sounds made by its bursts of Chronoptic energies share the same sounds with Pulse Nova's energy waves, suggesting that both abilities utilize Chronoptic energy to work their power. This is evident in the yellow-orange and pink-purple color of the Edict's energy, a set of colors that can be found in other depictions of said energy.
 * void ember
 * The lightning's unnatural color may be from his Chronoptic energy, but purple lightning is natural in real life, so it might not be the case for this one. It could even be the lightning of Wex due to their similar colors, but this could also be a stretch.
 * As previously mentioned, Pulse Nova uses Chronoptic energy because its waves of energy share sound effects with Diabolic Edict's Chronoptic energy bursts. Further proof of this spell using said energy is its orange and pink color, colors that can also be seen in the energy found in Split Earth and Diabolic Edict.
 * An unused voiceline for this spell has him describing it as an "impure impulse" when he uses it. This implies that something about Pulse Nova is impure, such as the destructive energies that it emits in pulses or novae. In this case, Chronoptic energy is an impurity.
 * His transformed and weaponized tail is stated to pulse with desolation, which might be referring to this spell. In this case, Pulse Nova emits from this tail, instead of his body.

Description
The evil Impurities are the impure elements that make up the hinterland at the innermost part of all nature, akin to how our nature is composed of the elements. Despite the Impurities being, well, impure, they can be "distilled to their essence" for some reason, contradicting their inherent impurity. Leshrac only mentions the said purification of his Impurities once he has reincarnated, but it's not yet known what this distillation has to do with his reformation process.

The reality of nature, according to the nihilosopher Leshrac, is all about torment and decay. As the elements of nature's core, they embody all of these evil truths, such as torment and suffering. The Impurities may also embody chaos and thus they are the stuff of disorder in nature due to these attributes. That being said, these impure elements may serve as the basis for Leshrac's belief that everything he sees in the cosmos is chaos, since the truth of reality is a chaotic version of it with these elements. This implies that Impurites are elements that have no harmony or balance between them.

According to Leshrac, our form generally comes from nature's core, which may explain the place's names. As the elements of the plane where the form usually comes from, the Impurities may have a contribution to the creation of a being's physical form. This may explain why Leshrac knows the truth that everything in nature is undergoing an existence of torment that they have yet to realize until they see the vile reality of creation for themselves. If the Impurities had a hand in providing our forms, then our bodies may have traces of the Impurities' influence, which is why all of nature turns out to be tormented like Leshrac all along...

Upon reviving, Leshrac mentions witless elements that restore his life, which possibly refers to the Impurities. It is unknown why they are witless, but it is known that they have healing properties (which can be tapped into via Regeneration runes) and the ability to resurrect him. Apparently, the life that these Impurities give to him is unnatural.

Speculation
The Impurities being witless may have something to do with the fact that Leshrac is the only sentient creature in the heart of nature, thus he is utterly alone there.

Witless properties implies that the Impurities lack a mind, unlike the elements of the material plane. For instance, there exists a living and sentient desert inside a certain planet within the vast terrene plane. This desert is the Scintillant Waste, a gritty intelligence that encompasses a torrid empire of pure sand. As such, the entire sandscape in itself is a massive sandy elemental. Since the material plane has sentient and living elements, it has the capacity to conceive and sustain elemental life.

On the other hand, the Impurities are witless, thus they cannot bring about any intelligent creatures, let alone an elemental. The only way the Impurities can create elementals of their own is by having an intelligent & alien creature provided to them from beyond creation's core to transform into an elemental of the Impurities. This might explain why Leshrac is alone in the heart of nature, as there is nothing in said place that is an intelligence like him. This also explains why Leshrac is the only one of his kind, until the introduction of Ash the Defiler in the lore of Dota 2. This may also explain why the life that these Impurities give is unnatural. Since these impure elements were not meant to provide life (as proven by the absence of living intelligences native to nature's core) until Leshrac came along and somehow exploited their power for himself, their life-giving power is unnatural.

This speculation seems to have horrifying implications. If the Impurities are witless, then that means that the evil truth of nature is not evil because of anything related to morality, but simply because what we think of as evil is just nature doing its thing. Just like the real life universe when we consider all of its horrors—cruel creatures that can bring excruciating pain and thus an awful death, natural disasters of death and destruction, world-ending events like meteor falls and black holes—these are not evil things so much as the way of nature. The Impurities have no wits to begin with, so morality doesn't even apply to them. Nature's essential yet unpleasant hinterland reserves exquisite torment upon us all, not out of ill will, but simply because that is the way of nature, unfortunately.

Contradicting this is the existence of an evil vine that grows on Leshrac's form. More specifically, it is described as a "twisted sort of wisdom" in its lore, implying at the plant's sapience and thus it possibly has a mind of its own. This vine feeds and thrives off of Leshrac's inherent anguish, black thoughts, and foul deeds.

List of Impurities
Like the elements that make up all nature, the Impurities are the elements that form reality's foul foundation. With these evil, blasted, tormented, and corrupted elements, the horrible hinterland that the Impurities constitute mirrors all of its elements' properties. The following are the four Impurities: All four Impurities are akin to the elements of air, water, fire, and earth, respectively. Each Impurities seem to correspond with the four states of matter: solid, liquid, gas, and plasma.
 * Evil winds that apparently rise in upward currents from unknown origins. Perhaps they are destructive, hence the core of nature is blasted.
 * There's a windlike background sound in Leshrac's spell. Mayhaps this is what fluxes the Edict's Chronoptic energy between the planes. Who knows?
 * Tainted waters that can strengthen and sustain the consumer, although perhaps this only applies to those of the heart of nature.
 * When Leshrac drank these waters, he gained a growth of power-channeling branches and unnatural fungi that acts as armor with its stone-hard composition.
 * Apparently, the growths that come from these tainted waters, such as Leshrac's curved rack, can corrupt the soul beyond restoration if they are merely touched.
 * Sinister energies that apparently energize the likes of Leshrac, since he sounds quite pleased and refreshed upon receiving them.
 * It's possible that this sinister energy is actually Chronoptic energy, which also means that the latter is one of the Impurities.
 * Supporting this is Leshrac's spell. Its blasting energy flows from one plane to another, the former possibly being nature's core where the Impurities are.
 * Furthermore, is said to be an impure impulse. Its energy is implied to be Chronoptic energy as well, further implying its nature as an impurity.
 * With its apparent nourishing properties, this sinister energy might be the same as Chronoptic energy, since the latter also nourishes its respective crystals.
 * The Chronoptic energy of spreads the same torment that afflicts Leshrac.  As such, this Impurity embodies torment, one of nature's evil truths.
 * The brittle earth. Nothing else is known about it, besides it being brittle compared to typical earth possibly due to it embodying decay, one of the evil truths of nature.
 * Said element may be why he has the spell, since he destroys the earth in nature to make it mirror its brittle counterpart at nature's core.
