Ludos

(a.k.a. the Exterminator)

Ludos, known as "The Exterminator," is a malevolent deity who holds dominion over the sixth layer of Hell. His realm is one of perpetual warfare, where he revels in the destruction and agony wrought by battle. It is said that Ludos unleashed the Titans of old for his own entertainment, as the peace that existed between the elven civilizations thousands of years ago had become monotonous to him. Ludos is a fearsome god who embodies the domains of Strength, Glory, Evil, Domination, Pain, and War. He is worshipped by those who seek to conquer and subjugate others through brute force, and his followers are often found among the ranks of merciless warlords, conquerors, and tyrants. They believe that victory in battle is the ultimate goal, and will stop at nothing to achieve it, even if it means resorting to the most barbaric and cruel tactics imaginable. Those who dare to oppose Ludos and his followers do so at great peril, for he is a deity who demands absolute loyalty and obedience. He delights in tormenting his enemies, inflicting unimaginable pain and suffering upon them before finally ending their lives. It is said that the souls of those who fall in battle against Ludos are dragged down into the depths of his domain, where they are subjected to eternal torment and agony. Despite his brutal nature, there are some who revere Ludos as a patron of strength and courage, seeing him as a symbol of the indomitable human spirit in the face of adversity. They believe that by channeling his power, they can become unstoppable forces of destruction, crushing all who stand in their way. However, such individuals are few and far between, for most fear and revile Ludos as a god of violence and bloodshed.
