Originally created as a novel by Ryou Mizuno, Record of Lodoss War (Publisher: KADOKAWA) is widely regarded as a landmark work in Japanese fantasy. The series helped establish many of the genre's defining elements - including elves, adventure, and magic - and became one of the earliest major light novel bestsellers.

Record of Lodoss War: The Necromancer Queen is a brand-new official spin-off set in that acclaimed universe. Set long before the events of the original series, immediately following the fall of the Kingdom of Kastuul, the story unfolds on Island of Lodoss. The WEBTOON brings its epic fantasy world to life through dynamic full-color artwork and a vertical scrolling format unique to the medium.

Following its world-first release in South Korea in May 2026, the series received widespread acclaim from readers, with comments such as "Every panel feels like a theatrical anime film" and "A masterpiece meets a genius artist." Longtime fans of the original series have also expressed their excitement for the new spin-off.

[Synopsis]
For rookie warrior Thane and the young priestess Seraphine, the fall of Kastuul on the Island of Lodoss was nothing more than a distant memory, until the night the sky bled red. When an army of ghouls descends upon their peaceful village, their fragile world is incinerated in a heartbeat. Aided by her underling, a powerful wraith seeks a vessel, and Seraphine's pure soul makes her the ultimate prize. As the gravely injured Thane helplessly watches his love be taken away, he vows to avenge everyone he has lost. And thus, an epic struggle begins as ancient sorcery threatens to consume the living once more.
