Corak the Mysterious is a Guardian created by the Ancients, whose main role is to repair the faulty Sheltem unit, the corrupted guardian of Terra. Corak manages to capture him, and investigates Sheltem only to find that his conditioning is faulty, and a basic error in the programming is causing him to malfunction. Sheltem, however, escapes from his captor, and flees to VARN, beginning the Might and Magic: Secret of the Inner Sanctum plot, which continues through CRON to Might and Magic V: The Darkside of XEEN, and makes an appearance in Might and Magic VIII: Day of the Destroyer. Corak's role becomes to follow Sheltem through the series and exterminate him, travelling through space and time to capture the villain.
