Hextor - Evil
Sovereign of Tyranny and Darkness
Hextor, decided he wanted to be the sole god of war and not share that title with his brother, Erythnul. So he proposed a game of ”Gambit of Ord” to decide who would be the god of war once and for all. Erythnul, enjoying competition, accepted the bet, against the objections of his siblings, and so the game was on and the dice came out. Hextor lost but was convinced that he had been cheated by Erythnul. In order to get even with Erythnul, Hextor unleashed The Destroyer's Flood. The world was covered in water sending many of the gods into hiding in The Great Arboretum. With most of the gods in hiding, Hextor appointed himself ruler of Rüt, his first order of business was to eliminate Erythnul and his allies. Once he killed Erythnul, he hunted down any known allies and killed them as well. Once they were all eliminated or had disappeared into the far reaches of the world their were no other gods strong enough on their own to oppose hextor, and any talk of rebellion was met with the punishment of death. Hextor ruled over the newly formed water world with an iron fist, destroying any god that had the audacity to oppose him. This time period is known as the Dominance of Hextor.

Holy Books & Codes
The Book of Hextor: This is the primary book of Hextor's church, telling of Hextor's youth and his decision to go to the Lords of Evil for boons that would help him against his unworthy brother Erythnul.
The Celestial Grindwheel: This is a very heretical set of scrolls written by a Hextorian monk a century ago, hinting that Erythnul and Hextor are actually two halves of the same being. The scrolls suggest that the battle between the two sides helps balance out the good and evil in the multiverse, thereby preventing the destruction of everything

Tenets of Faith
The church of Hextor teaches that the world is a harsh, unforgiving place. The strong rule the weak, and power is the only reward worth having. Cruelty and mercilessness are necessary tools. Order must be forged from Chaos and law from anarchy, but order is meaningless without the will to enforce it. Tyrants are to be obeyed, and dissenters are to be oppressed or killed. Slaves must obey their masters.
Divine Goals & Aspirations
Complete subjugation of all life.
