Mask, King of Thieves
Mask, King of Thieves Kerrin O'Burgess (a.k.a. Master of All Thieves)
The King of Thieves
"[...]for all those who bear witness to the likes of this man, shall be put to death. For withheld information. For crudeness of character. For theft. The likes of you, all, shall die."

Mask originally had been named Mutilation, being the other half to Cowardice, born from Death splitting his only mortal begotten child in half. It was through Mask's actions on the day, that prevented massive extinction events that had been curbed only once before by the Olqdesh. The Olqdesh was not around to save their creations this time, and it was up to the final ancient divine of Hariq to inspire Mutilation to act for the good of mortals on that day and betray his other half. Mask's church is known as the Key Coalition, groups that safeguard and protect the dastardly gift of Death to mortal kind.
Mask may be considered by some to be a lesser divine, due to the nature of his church and the way other new divines treat him, but the contributions of his followers do a great deal to protect swathes of people from the shadows.

Holidays
Mask only has one day that is recognized by his worshippers and Omnitheistic churches: and that is the day of his ascension to becoming part of the new divines.
Divine Goals & Aspirations
Moreso than anything, Mask and his follower's primary goal is to guard and keep the key of Death away from mortals, and only using them in dire circumstances.
