Artifacts
The Crown of Dominion – A seven-spired, Drakthorite-forged relic capable of binding ley threads and warping reality. Each spire represents a mortal vice. It is Vyrakath’s masterwork—his voice made manifest.
Holy Books & Codes
Vyrakath has no holy texts—only forbidden tomes, scattered across the world.
- The Hollow Rites – Written in blood and leyline residue, found beneath corrupted ley sites. Said to contain spells of dark power unseen by the world.
- The Dusktide Fragments – Scrawlings from Vaeril Dusktide’s final years. Obsessive, repetitive, soaked in madness, but believed to carry the true voice of Vyrakath.
- The Sealed Verses of Starheart – Unreadable without shadow magic. These verses are not written they’re withered into the page.
Tenets of Faith
To follow Vyrakath is to embrace unmaking:
- Break the chains that bind you—starting with your name.
- Creation is arrogance. Correction is necessary.
- Truth is buried in what the gods forbid.
- Order is a cage. Shatter it.
- Destruction is not cruelty—it is the return to honesty.
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Vyrakath has no stable form. His appearances are inconsistent and painful to witness—a god who broke himself to slip between worlds. He is often glimpsed as:
- A twisting column of burning ash
- A shattered bleeding black form
- A figure of perfect symmetry that becomes wrong the longer you look
He is formless—because form is a prison.
Identifying Characteristics
Dark and unstable magic fractures off him constantly.
His mouth bears no tongue, yet his voice is heard in thought.
His eyes burn red with vengeance and aggression.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Vyrakath was once among The Immatuar. While the others—Leyara , Kragoth , Solara , and the rest—shaped the world in harmony, Vyrakath burned with something else: envy.
He was not given a domain of growth or order, but instead the unmaking of things. To him, destruction was not evil—it was necessary. But when he demanded equal authority among the gods, Elto denied him. Vyrakath responded by seeking to create in his own way: not by forming life, but by warping it.
His greatest act of rebellion came when he whispered to Vaeril Dusktide, the Crownforger. Through forbidden insight, he helped Vaeril craft the Crown of Dominion —a soulbound artifact that would fracture ley lines, twist the Weave, and mark the first true act of divine rebellion.
For this, Elto exiled him, casting Vyrakath from the High Palace into the Ethereal Realm, a place between being and void. But even banished, Vyrakath endures. He watches. And he whispers.
Morality & Philosophy
Vyrakath views morality as a weakness born from fear. In his eyes, ambition is the purest form of worship, and destruction is merely transformation. To him, there is no good or evil—only will and weakness. His doctrine champions dominance, freedom from divine restraint, and the reshaping of the world through those bold enough to act.Vyrakath views morality as a weakness born from fear.

Personality Characteristics
Representation & Legacy
Vyrakath’s most infamous legacy is the Crown of Dominion. Forged through his guidance, and with it, the corruption of seven mortals now known as the Wraith Lords
His influence caused:
- The birth of the Duskborn
- The Hollowwood Fell
- The shattering of leyline harmony
- The rise and fall of Greendale
- The collapse of Wildbay, Forgehold Grudghald, and more
Every war driven by ambition, every artifact corrupted by desire, bears his touch.

Vyrakath speaks in Shadowtongue—a language not learned, but inhaled. It seeps into dreams, into silence, into void. Those who hear it often do not realize they’ve understood until they’ve already obeyed.
His voice is also found in:
- Leyline corruption
- Cursed Drakthorite
- Reflections in broken glass
- The silence after betrayal
