'''Welzz''' was a large black male wels catfish who resided in the underground lake inside the [[Doomwytes]]' lair. [[Korvus Skurr]] believed the fish to be the spirit of his underground realm, as well as an oracle, and that his serpent [[Sicariss]] was capable of communicating with him. This however, was not the case; the fish had learned that the appearance of Sicariss usually meant something was going to be fed to him, and he rose to accept the food, ''not'' to communicate with the serpent, who was using Skurr's superstitions to her own advantage.

Korvus sacrificed those captured by the Doomwytes to Welzz, as well as his own followers when they disobeyed or displeased him. Welzz would consume anything or anyone offered to him; he disposed of the crow leader [[Veeku]] and even devoured Sicariss when Skurr discovered her treachery and threw her into the lake.

When a wounded [[Baliss the Slayer]] invaded Skurr's domain, he sought cool water in which to immerse his injured head; however, the only place to find it was Welzz's lake. As soon as the adder plunged his head into the pool, the catfish struck; this proved to be a fatal mistake, as the larger adder pulled Welzz free of the water, squeezed him in his coils, and bit him, killing him.
