Zeradoth
Zeradoth, the Dark Prince is the evil god of survival, murder, and executions. His followers are those who believe in the most depraved and dark ness, that they are able to solve life by murdering those around them. Over the years since The Shatter, the Dark Prince has been attempting to corrupt and influence "good" people.
Appearance
In many long destroyed depictions of Zeradoth, he appears to resemble a human man with a skeletal frame and gaunt face that has two black lidless eyes. His dress is often in deep black leather armor with a pauldron made of a crimson metal that seems to have embedded itself into Zeradoth's skin. Sometimes he is depicted as wearing a blood red cloak and hood that covers his long black hair and most of his armor. Regardless of the interpretation, Zeradoth is often seen wielding an array of silver daggers as well as a single blade made of the same crimson metal as his pauldron.
Personality
Even among the rest of the Deceiver Gods, Zerdoth is considered extremely cruel, not only to those who oppose him, but even his own followers. Many of them are unsure as to why they perform the actions they do, especially the brutal executions they are enacted to perform. Zeradoth is known to be exceptionally offended when people leave his service
History
Zeradoth was one of the Deceiver Gods who split from the rest of the gods during The Dawning. Zeradoth along with his other siblings removed their protection from mortal beings leading up to The Rift. The deities who performed this act were banished to their own divine plane where they were trapped for centuries.
Zeradoth used his consciousness and presence to influence mortals during the Age of Creation. In doing so, he was able to help his siblings, particularly Disaki escape from their bindings. In doing so, Disaki, Zeradoth and Pundras were able to start attacking Sovmora. Zeradoth was known to infiltrate into the cities walls, only stopped by the might of Tyril and Marvina who joined forces to repel the Divine attack. This was one of the many events that involved Zeradoth in The Shatter.
Most of Zeradoth's followers were violent killers and struck down many enemies in the course of their attacks during The Shatter. However, it wouldn't last forever as during The Shatter, several of the Heraldic Gods banded together with the aim of banishing Zeradoth from the plane and to lessen the impact of his powers on the realm. However, Zeradoth was deceptive in his mission and was able to hide away from the deities for many years. Once found he quickly lashed out at all of the deities, heavily wounding Djanrol's leg on one side.
It is said in many tales that The Dark Prince is imprisoned in a cage of eternal darkness bound by twelve divine chains that keep him held against any form of will that he still possesses. As a result of this imprisonment and the lack of a divine presence, many of Zeradoth's followers had been culled or vanished by the end of The Shatter.

'Zeradoth is known to be exceptionally offended when people leave his service' I feel as though this is not something you want. Interesting god. I kind of like his tenets even though I hate what he stands for.
