Zasgrall

One of the most ferocious and unpredictable of the Divines, Zasgrall is linked with savagery and inhibition. A child of Astartes and, therefore, war, Zasgrall’s hand can be found where fighting turns to slaughter or when creatures, humanoid or otherwise kill for the pure pleasure of it rather than for necessity.

Common Worshippers

  Most folks who regard themselves and their surroundings as civilised have little to do with Zasgrall and little desire to engage with her, as she encourages violence and disorder. Most of those who follow her are tribal peoples who live in the wildest places of the world and she has a particularly strong following amongst Gnolls, who were created to embody her savage nature and tendencies.  

Priesthood

  Though she prefers the disorder brought about by unrestrained violence on the whole, when it comes to those chosen to be her clergy, Zasgrall is much more of a stickler. Communities which worship Zasgrall will often be led by one of her clerics, who will hand pick those from among the population thought to embody her love of savagery more powerfully than their kin. These souls will then be trained in the art of war and the secret rites which allow them to become berserkers in battle, men and women capable of enduring immense pain who cut down hundreds in a single engagement.  

Temples

  There are no formal temples to Zasgrall, but in the wildest, most desolate places of Kelbonnar Planes of Existence, or where her followers have brought forth slaughter, huge mounds of severed heads will be erected in her honour.  

Activities in the Divine War

  Naturally, the Divine War is something that Zasgrall is highly supportive of. She fights for the Astartians and is regarded as one of the most capable fighters at Astartes' disposal. However, Astartes keeps Zasgrall on a short leash, knowing that without close management, she will quickly bring about ultra violence and destruction.

Divine Sigils and Symbols

  Zasgrall is most commonly represented by the symbol of a jagged toothed maw, often simplified to a circle with a continuous row of triangles running along its inside edge. She is also represented by the animal form of a sabre-toothed tiger.

Divine Links and Progeny

  She is the daughter of Astartes and Wresmella.   She is the sister of Raminit, Hvanmara and Jore.   She fights for the divine alliance the Astartiansin the Divine War.  

Mortal Creations

  Hoping to spread her influence over the Material Plane, Zasgrall created Gnolls, to be an embodiment of her savagery. Most Gnolls still revere Zasgrall, but their dedication to her savagery means that they are not as effective at spreading the Divine's influence as was hoped, with too much time spent fighting amongst themselves.
