Ghaunadaur

That Which Lurks, The Elder Eye, The Lord of Slime, The Ancient One

Ghaunadaur teaches that while all creatures have a place in the world, and all are fit to wield power, but power must be claimed. Cull the weak, weed out the flawed, and strengthen the stock. Those who rebel against society do the most to grow and evolve it. Followers should spread knowledge and fear of Ghaunadaur, and persuade others to sacrifice themselves for That Which Lurks.
Priests of Ghaunadaur serve The Elder Eye with the utmost devotion, doing whatever pleases their chaotic god. Most often, this means sacrifices, but sometimes it means releasing abominations on the world to cause panic and fear. The Elder Eye appreciates willing sacrifices most, so the highest-ranking priests are quite adept at charming or coercing others into giving themselves up to The Eye.
Most of the priests of Ghaunadaur gather in scattered cults throughout the Underdark, but a few exceptions exist in drow and aboleth cities. These dark and mysterious temples are sometimes visited by false worshippers, who have learned that they can sometimes be granted favors by That Which Lurks, even without giving themselves over to the chaos, though Ghaunadaur sometimes grants them power only to devour them an instant later at the height of their elation.
