Rablev was King Hieronimes' Chief Engineer in the Time of the Tombs. He was responsible for the rapid technological advancement of Kasagrad and entered into a political struggle with King Hieronimes, seeking to usurp him. King Hieronimes' propaganda depicted Rablev as having offended the gods and used this as an excuse to entomb him in the Lost Tomb of Rablev with most of his friends, relatives, servants and pets.
