Task

Task is the dragon god of greed and selfishness.

Divine Symbols & Sigils

Worshipper Relations

Task is revered primarily by evil dragons, especially reds, although he counts a few brass dragons among his faithful.   Many Arasilisch who have a lust for greed and hoard, find comfort in Task's belief.

Tenets of Faith

While Astilabor is the deity of acquisition with no stigma of greed attached, Task is greed personified. He wants it all, and it mattered not to him what he has to do or what it cost to others to obtain what he wants. His worshipers share the same attitude.   Task reveres greed and selfishness, and sometimes rewarded followers who show these traits in excess. One such gift he grants to his followers is to turn them into hoarder dragons on death so they can guard their treasure from opportunistic looters. While it is thought that his rewards are never material, since Task is believed to be unable to give up anything he owns, truly faithful, meaning greedy, dragons are rewarded with material goods created by Task himself, such as the case of the blue dragon Amilektrevitrioelis who is granted the Shackles of Amilek. The same item is believed to have been granted to at least two other exceedingly greedy dragons.

Physical Description

Identifying Characteristics

Task usually manifests as a huge dragon whose hide is so studded with coins and gems from snout to tail that it is impossible to determine the color of his scales.

Mental characteristics

Personal history

Task had sought great treasures inside Aluda'ar during The Gods War, only to find the corrupted disciples of him, returning back to the fold of She'eros. Task had never expected the godling to be as strong as he was, and thus was his downfall. In the year 987 AB, Task had returned, the people look to the Loyal Fury and his mortal agents for salvation once again after he laid waste to the cities of Octoland. His essence merged with the that of Abbathor.

Social

Contacts & Relations

Task is an ally of Tiamat ever since she had used the divine spark of Abbathor to merge his deceased body, reviving him in the process.
