The earliest history recorded of the Black Skull is that it is the skull of a Nephlim from the Doom War that took place in the Nightmare desert. [2]
Centuries after that, the Battle of the Black Skull took place. This Citadel was first discovered by the Valor Clan. They attempted to secretly use their power to take over this Citadel, because the first person to own this Citadel would gain a huge advantage in the race to the Tomb of Ariel. [3]
But the Valor Clan lost the Citadel due to Mordret usurping it secretly. [10]
After these events the Skinwalker took over this Citadel due to the fact that Mordret didn't clean up the bodies after he silently usurped it. [11]
