God of Plague and Sickness
Ek'zo-Dekt is a dark and ominous deity, feared and respected by those who understand the power of plagues and sickness. This deity is said to have been born in the darkest corners of the world, from the very essence of disease and decay. His form is that of an amalgamation of various insect and animal parts, a mixture of a cockroach body shell, mosquito wings, a Hercules beetle head, and a flea-ridden, moist, bear-like body.
Those who worship Ek'zo-Dekt believe that his powers can bring about sickness and disease, but also that they can cure such ailments. Some see him as a necessary evil, while others revere him as a powerful healer. His followers often create offerings of diseased materials, hoping to curry his favor and receive his blessings.
Ek'zo-Dekt's influence can be seen in the world through the spread of plagues and pandemics, as well as in the work of healers and physicians who seek to cure and prevent sickness. Some say that his touch can even bring about transformative changes in individuals, granting them new powers and abilities related to disease and pestilence. There are those who seek to harness his power for their own purposes, and there are even those who claim to have seen him appear before them, a terrifying and awe-inspiring sight.
