The Old Gods

The Old Gods are a group of chaotic Fears opposed to the Conqueror Gods and allied with the Rebel Gods. They are chaotic not only in their nature, but also in their methodology; they do not generally target those they consider heretics, instead targeting victims based primarily on personal interest in the matter.

The Old Gods existed before the Staff of Conquest. Sensing its creation, they aimed to take it for their own, resulting in the Young Gods being created to protect it. This resulted in a conflict between the Old Gods, allied with the Rebel Gods, and the Conqueror Gods.

The Old Gods are, individually, less powerful than the Conqueror Gods, but are also much more numerous than them. Rather than a true hierarchy being in place amongst them, de facto leaders come and go, depending on the circumstances. They also have no permanent domains, instead setting up temporary bases when they deem it necessary and possible to do so.

His current form is an insectoid monstrosity made of Zentaris corpses. Despite his inability to cast spells with words or gestures in this form, he is nonetheless fully capable of accessing his innate magical and necromantic abilities.
