In the Demon Spawn War (8972 GE - 9493 GE), Kezgihr served on the side of the Covenant, battling the demon invasion of Bal-Kriav. His last period of service was in a crack unit named Zephyr Talon. Operating in the Ma'Ohari Region, he battled the hordes of a demon lord named Graz'zt.

Faced with a war of attrition, one always favoring the demons, Kezgihr and his loyalists took Zephyr Talon down a more brutal path. Later history would call them the Forsaken Six; hunted down by the Covenant and members of their former unit, each would rise as a vampire in service to Kezgihr.

After the Demon Spawn War, Kezgihr returned to Ma'Ohari, taking up residence in the Zan Urk mountains. His dream was to build a sustainable civilization for vampires. When the demon empire of Varelay came to power, he and his lackeys preyed upon and were forced to make war with their "fodder".

In the First Merioss Crusade (911 HE - 920 HE), Kezgihr was behind the rise of the vampire lords and the organized threat they posed to the people of Smizerak. When Drachlaz fell to Smizerak and her allies, Kezgihr was noticeably absent from the pyre of bodies.

Three years after the First Merioss Crusade, in 923 HE, Kezgihr founded the group Grisapho Vu'tira - the first of the Blood Cults of Kezgihr. The modus operandi of Grisapho Vu'tira was organizing vampires and using their collective might to take out foes like the Night Vigil, Radiant Cross, and elite vampire hunting units out of Smizerak.

Around 950 HE, Kezgihr went to Hezmort where he started more Blood Cults. Still learning from his kind's habits, these cults "over-worked the fodder", depopulating the countryside. The survivors, many driven feral from lack of blood, crossed five hundred miles of scorching sands, starting a period of history called the Feeding of Kezgihr.
