Azetlor, Keeper of Knowledge, was once a powerful leader in Shandor's "Cult of Gozer" and as a reward for a lifetime of service, was given eternal life as a transformed demi-god in the twisted ghost-world plane. Now, Golem-like, he clothes himself in a dense "skin" of environmental debris, that, with the addition of his massive reserves of PK energy, makes him a devastating and dangerous opponent.

Contact and Strategy:
First contact is made with Azetlor after you reach the final portal at the top of the long flight of stairs within the ghost-world plane.

His body is made up of his priceless artifacts the he collected, and his face is covered in a mask that is in turn covered in Black Slime, disperse the Black Slime with your Slime Blower and then use your Capture Beam to "wrangle" the mask free from his head,once clear you must use your Proton Stream and Boson Dart, to blast Azetlor in his central eye,the big glowing yellow orb, and disperse his PK Energy.

He will spawn numerous Book Bats, Cyclones, and PK Spikes.

The portals placed at numerous points around the room can be used to your advantage! Be careful, as Azetlor can destroy these if he gets too close however.

In life Azetor, Keeper of Knowledge, was once a powerful leader in Ivo Shandor's Cult of Gozer by the name of Edmund Hoover, a philologist and serial killer known as 'The Collector'. Around 1923, Hoover seduced Eleanor Twitty, head librarian and curator of the New York City Public Library's Special Collections in an effort to gain access to the Gozerian Codex. In March 1924, Twitty had discovered Hoover's true motivations and refuse to allow him further access to the Special Collections. Hoover then murdered Twitty and hid her body in the secret chambers built by Shandor beneath the Library's basement. The New York Police Department were unable to find the body despite a number of room-to-room searches of the book stacks, though they were able to charge Hoover with a number of other murders. He was convicted for his crimes and sentenced to death by hanging.

Given the context clues within the game it can be assumed that the other murders were that of children whose bodies he also collected, a few of which might have been murdered in the same room as the one Eleanor Twitty was murdered in, who then became trapped in the library as ghosts.

In Sumerian mythology Azetlor was a Sumerian demigod that ruled over the lost. Azetlor's role in the Sumerian pantheon was as his name implies: to find, collect and return what is lost. He was entrusted with collecting anything that fell through between worlds, be they books, souls, artifacts, civilizations, etc. and ensuring they could eventually be returned to our world in a new form or another. Azetlor eventually became greedy however, and began to take and collecting things that hadn't been lost yet or not meant to be come lost, and keep them for himself, overstepping his bounds. He was banished by his superiors for his hubris to the abyss, where he himself will be lost forever, and it is said that he waits there for someone finds him so that they can set him free.
