Name: Vescteseg
God of: Corruption and Power
Elemental affinity: Aether
Alignment: Chaotic Evil
Pictures (If applicable):
Physical description of preferred forms: Vescteseg prefers to be seen as a fifteen tall giant, lean and mean, with the tattered remains of black robes on his form. He wears a greathelm, covering his face, though at the eyeholes, dark purplish flames may be seen. The Helm itself is made of bone, with great bull horns curving away from the helm itself.
The other form he uses is that of a pale skinned human with dark dark brown hair, and strangely captivating eyes. His face has strong features, and he stands relatively tall.
Preferred Gender (If applicable): Male
Means of godhood: Vescteseg is a former bestial god who joined with the winning side near the end to save his skin, though he has never really gotten rid of his old habits.
Personality: One word can sum him up. Ambition. His desire for ultimate power drives ever onward, and defines him. Everything he does is about getting stronger, and not one single word is wasted. Everything is part of a plan, and that plan is inside another plan. Circles within circles, ever spinning, ever growing. Where other gods party and waste their time, he works. Changing and shaping the land he holds.
Worshiped by: Some few humans who desire power, as well as the races that he has molded: The Alfar and the Krantosi.
Symbols:
His Helmet
A Clenched Fist superimposed over Etherium
Divine weapon: A massive warhammer named Tuarros, capable of crushing any foe, and while it may not break adamant, it will break the person inside.
Preferred blessing: The Eye. This blessing lets the Blessed see every opportunity available in their daily lives, allowing them to gain power at an alarming rate.
The second blessing employed by Vescteseg is that of Ascension, literally adopting one of his most devout followers as a son or daughter, and changing their body to suit their new status. They are generally extremely powerful, and usually gifted with one or more special abilities that set them apart from standard folks. However they seem to have an alarming habit of trying to usurp Vescteseg. Thus he keeps a closer eye on them than many enemies.
Preferred curse: For those who raise his Ire he strikes down with a horrific disease known simply as Despair. Their bodies slowly waste away until there is naught left but skin and bone. And then even the skin rots away.
Holy City State: Vestenyos, Capitol of the Corruption
Most notable creation (if applicable): Vescteseg cannot truly create anything, but he is able to corrupt things others have made and shape them to his purpose. Thus is how the Alfar and Krantosi were born. The Alfar were once Elves. These Elves had their eyes taken from them and replaced with eyes shaped by Vescteseg. With these new eyes they saw things Vescteseg's way, and became Conscious less killers, for they had all the skill of the Elves, but without that vital moral compass. They make up the bulk of the population of Vestenyos and the Corruption. They also despise their Elven cousins, and seek to kill them most of all.
The Krantosi were once men, but they had their bodies twisted and shaped until they became seven foot tall monsters capable of tearing lesser beings in half. They are the shock troops of Vescteseg.
The final creation is the worst of all: The Corruption. An area of land three hundred squares miles large, it is a twisted nightmare of land. Every plant tries to kill outsiders, every stone is sharp, even the land tries to sink travellers. And if one dies in this land, then their soul and body become bound to Vescteseg, bound to serve him forever. These undead can only fight upon the Corruption, and as such it is up to the living to spread the Corruption, which is done by building a temple to Vescteseg near the border of the Corruption, and granting the land to the deity. Once done, the change takes one month to complete, and can be stopped by destroying the altar or if another god intervenes.
Preferred form of worship: Sacrifice. Preferably of Life.
