Bertoxxulous, the Plaguebringer
BERTOXXULOUS | The Plaguebringer CE
Bertoxxulous is the god of disease and death. He associates with oozes, undead and all manner of evil creatures. Bertoxxulous is revered by necromancers and few other, but these worshipers are enough for him.
The Plaguebringer rules from his citadel known as the Crypt of Decay in the Plane of Disease. Most other gods, even the evil ones, regard him as an abomination, but Rodcet Nife is his most hated adversary. When Bertoxxulous visits his followers, he usually looks like a hungbacked human wearing tattered robes. His body is a rotting corpse with a handsome face on an otherwise grotesque head. His favored weapon is the scythe.

Tenets of Faith
Followers of Bertoxxulous believe the only truth on Norrath is that everything dies. They view the decay of flesh as a thing of ultimate beauty. The subtle purples of a fresh bruise, the almost irridescent yellow green of an infested pustule, are but a few of the things that His followers relish. It is not surprising that many of His followers pursue the dark art of Necromancy, for to them nothing is more desirable than to be surrounded by beings who, even in unlife, continue to rot and decay. Do not take this to mean that His followers are suicidal or seek a quick death. To the contrary, they wish to live long, painful lives, spreading their dark, diseased stain across all of Norrath.
