Eidolon: Obo

Cataclysm & Oblivion

After the Cataclysm, an event that destroyed All- Life, the Old Gods that had perished were reborn in a place known as Oblivion. To each possessed a fragment of Divine Source, the remnant of the All-Soul. Like moths, they gathered in bloody slaughter, consuming the Divine Source from the fallen and harnessing it's power. Deprived of their memories and original forms, they fought until there was only one; from the remains of those dead, forgotten deities, rose an immortal, wicked abomination, Goddess of Destruction, Sebut Sekt.

Shortly after her birth, Sebut Sekt fell into a torpor, known as the Walking Dream. In this somnambulant state, the undesirable parts fell from her and became the first of the Eidolons. Ancient entities with the strength of fallen deities, the Eidolon are enigmatic beings that exist against Natural Order. They hold shards of the Profane Source- a twisted. shadow-form of Divine Source.

OBO
2, EIDOLON OF DENIALS, EMPTINESS, ABANDONMENT & LOSS OF HOPE

Obo is an enigmatic Eidolon that seeks out lonely and desperate souls to trap inside it's colossal body. Atmos (and by association, Osatmos) were said to have been carried inside Obo's body until they were seperated by the deity, Hoqon. Since then, Obo has appeared throughout history as the subject of folk tales- from myths about possessed urns and vessels to mysterious disappearances, Obo continues to be the subject of confusion and rumor. Obo's body is made of a stone- like material, appearing as a statue. The head of the statue is round and sits inside the torso, gazing out with large carved bug- eyes. Though the statue possesses no arms, a pair of large spherical objects rotate around the torso. A dark, viscous liquid drains from the orifices of the appendages, absorbing all light around it. The cylindrical upper torso sits atop a pair of short, stubby, stony legs that support the rest of the body. A large crack runs the length of the upper torso, said to have been inflicted during it's initial conflict with Hoqon.

Behavior & Psychology

A mysterious entity, Obo has never been known to speak to its followers. Though many have described impressions of the Eidolon, none have acknowledged a voice. Obo is said to haunt jars and statues, transforming them into vessels for harvesting souls. Devouts of Obo warn against looking into any vessel lest one trap their own spirit inside. Rituals invoking Obo involve prayers over empty vessels and denial of their prayers. When one has suffered enough beneath Obo's scrutiny, the Eidolon is said to provide blessings.
