Popobawa

The Winged Gorger

Popobawa was once an Izulu, by the name of Sunja Keta, and was born a vampire many years before the Great Holy War. Unlike the brutal tyrants that were his former family and friends, Sunja Keta reveled in his powers and potential in magic. He wished to bring madness and change wherever he desired and that caught the attention of his vampiric siblings. They had cast him out as an Exile and his activities did not flinch. When he had grown older and out of adolescence, he found he was alone amongst the dark and the world before him. The sun burnt his flesh, like so many of those Exiled from the vampiric tribes, he wished to change the fate of all Exiles and he became an Expatriate and a cultist of Adrammelech.
Yet, that too was not enough for a gorger of vices such as himself. He continued to indulge in every want and need he held close to his heart, but could not find complete satisfaction himself. Nothing was ever enough and he eventually gave into his madness and devoured his new family. This transformed him into the Archon of Gluttony known as Popobawa.

Minor Boon: You feast on the spoils of life and death. You gain the benefits of the irongut goblin heritage, regardless of your ancestry. If you already have this heritage, the circumstance bonus increases to +4.
Moderate Boon: Popobawa blesses you as one of his children. You gain negative healing.
Major Boon: When you contract vampirism, you experience fever dreams filled with insight. Once afflicted with vampirism, you gain the effects of foresight with yourself as the target until no longer afflicted with vampirism.
Minor Curse: You must overindulge or partake in forbidden feasts before you find yourself even remotely sated. You need to eat 20 times as much food as normal to avoid starvation, though you always feel hungry regardless of how much you eat. If you dine on the flesh and blood of sapient creatures, you need to eat only the normal amount of such meals and your hunger abates.
Moderate Curse: Popobawa cuts you off from positive energy without granting you the blessing of undeath. You are harmed by positive effects and don’t recover Hit Points from them, as if you were an undead or had negative healing, but you are still harmed by negative effects as normal.
Major Curse: Popobawa teaches you that pointless lives in slavery to death and morality are bound to end in tragedy. You develop an incurable wasting disease that leaves you clumsy 2, enfeebled 2, and unable to move except by Crawling. This disease never progresses further to kill you, but it passes to your friends and loved ones merely by sight, wasting them away unto death before your eyes and causing them to rise as undead to haunt you.
