Legend Lore: Tharizdun

Modern rumour and theological insights determine Tharizdun to be a deity so dark and evil that they want for nothing less than the total destruction of all life, across all planes. The Oshran Empire falsely believed Tharizdun to be a cleanser of impurities and the revealer of evil, as Knights and Squires to Tharizdun purged those who were made to look as fiends by illusion in a false crusade.

Tharizdun, in truth, was corrupted by an Obyrith trap, fulfilling their desires to escape their own reality in order to consume others. However the Obyrith could not control Tharizdun as they had planned, and were banished to Abyss when Tharizdun shed their body layer by layer, each an infinitude of evil; an act that drew the ire of the Gods and Primordial alike. Gods on both sides of the war banded together to imprison Tharizdun behind 9 seals, locked in the Fiendish Nightmare he had created.

These seals have been tightly guarded, most never being revealed, but cultists and demons who pledge loyalty to Tharizdun and the Destruction of All Things have gone to great lengths to break them.

Only one seal remains, and the knowledge to break it rests with the Battle Artificer Supreme, Gerard Vohon, and Chronomage Adrian Maja.
