Sar'Sagoth

Sar'Sagoth is one of the major deities of The Faisceau Pantheon, one of the most common religions on Ispérion.

To this day, he is one of the Malvern, the malevolent deities of this pantheon. But that wasn't always the case. For in the beginning, Sar'Sagoth, then called Sar, was indeed a God...

At that time, now known as the Supreme Era or Supra-Era, the gods had just appeared, and many of them had not yet been born. Ebor, Primordial God and father of all others, had just created and shaped Septime with the Dust, and Septime themselves, androgynous deity, had just given birth to Isnime, Coré, Faara and Leonor, the 4 elemental deities.

Having created the 4 elemental deities, Ebor saw fit to give life to the first terrestrial, mortal species: the Fehnen. Soon, Ebor and the other gods realized that the individuals created were corruptible and lacked virtue. So new gods had to be conceived to regulate mortals. Thus was born Sar, God of Temperance, and a handful of other deities destined to bring balance to mortals.

Sar was a good and reasonable God, with a gentle temperament and a peaceful spirit. He was renowned for his tranquil beauty. His immaculate hair con trasted with the piercing black of his eyes, deep but never severe. His charm captivated and his serenity fascinated. He was a respected and loved God, mortals and deities alike. Sar himself was very fond of his companions as well as mortals, and he was convinced that despite their faults, creatures endowed with life were precious and brilliant beings. And yet, the quietude didn't last.

Sar

Sar, during the quarrel between Saga and Thaesis, was one of those who refused to take sides. He, God of Temperance, was not willing to agree with either deity. Saga, his brother and God of Knowledge, had certainly seen his species decimated by that of Thaesis. But the Malvern, if he had been created, seemed necessary, for Good and Evil balance each other. The other deities having followed their own reason or that of their consorts, no one intervened. And so it happened. Saga challenged Thaesis, who flew into a fury that provoked what is now known as the The Great Schism.

Sar, like the others, saw his world shaken, shattered and fractured. He saw Serreth fall, brothers and sisters separated, kindreds torn apart. He saw Thaesis happy and Saga unhappy. And so, Sar, God of Temperance, metamorphosed into Sar'Sagoth, God of Anger, Despair and Madness. His faith in all living creatures disappeared, replaced by the despair of seeing his consorts torn apart. His quietude was replaced by anger at not having intervened to avoid the conflict, and rage at seeing his brother go under. His gentle beauty was transformed into a sinister, disquieting charm. His eyes widened, his mouth twisted into a rictus.

Thus was the metamorphosis of the gentle Sar into the monstrous Sar'Sagoth.
