Nekros, The God of Death

The God of Death is a dark and mysterious deity. He is often depicted as a tall, thin figure, draped in a black cloak, his face obscured by a hood. He is the harbinger of the end, the one who guides the souls of the departed to the afterlife. His power is absolute, and none can resist his call when the time comes. Some fear him, seeing him as a malevolent force, but others revere him as a necessary part of the cycle of life and death.   Nekros was born from the hand of Eldrim, much like his brother Wyrd. However, unlike Wyrd, Nekros harbored less envy for the task bestowed upon him by his father. Instead, he saw the potential within his own soul—the vast power it held and the significance it carried. To Nekros, the Soul was more potent than energy and more imposing than mater; it was a precious entity, capable of unpredictible prowesses. Rather than squander his soul as his father had done, Nekros sought to harness its power for a greater purpose. He understood that behind every soul lay a hidden potential—a power that, if unleashed, could bring about both chaos and beauty unlike anything the world had ever seen. With this vision in mind, Nekros created life, albeit a fleeting one, by combining matter and soul together. Yet, he only infused these creations with small, tiny shards of his own soul, knowing that they would eventually return to him when called back from the living.   The followers of the God of Death are a secretive and mysterious lot. They are often seen in black robes, their faces hidden behind masks. They perform solemn and quiet rituals, sacrificing animals and offering prayers to the God of Death. They are also known to be skilled assassins, and their services are often sought by those who wish to eliminate their enemies without being detected. Nekros, the God of Death, is feared not only for his role in guiding souls to the afterlife but also for his ability to call the souls of the living back to him. There are whispers among mortals that he feasts on the feelings and stories of the souls he claims, consuming their essence to sustain his own power. While some may view him as a necessary part of the cycle of life and death, others see him as a malevolent force, preying on the souls of the living.   However, there is a deeper truth to Nekros's existence. Every living creature's soul is believed to be a shard of Nekros's own soul, split and released to experience life. In this way, he is not only the God of Death but also a Life giver. Yet, despite this connection, Nekros's true nature remains enigmatic, and the fear of his power lingers.   Despite his fearsome reputation, the God of Death is not an evil deity. He is simply doing his job, guiding the souls of the dead to their next destination. Some say that he is a compassionate deity, comforting the souls of the departed as they make their way to the afterlife. Others believe that he is a stern judge, who punishes those who have lived wicked lives.
