Church of the Destroyer

Mythology & Lore

The Destroyer commands roving hordes of barbaric marauders across the lands to destroy, pillage, and slaughter for the joy of it. Orderless and without honor, the creeds of the evil hordemaster push orcs and other evil, savage creatures to devour the world around them, giving in to the chaotic and selfish nature of the predator. The Destroyer's most devout servants in Valandria are the Ravagers, a lawless band of orcs and goblins who delight in slaughtering innocents across the Planes.
The Allmagic shot out the Destroyer's right eye during the Fracturing, and the god of slaughter longs for the day he can return to favor twofold. Those who serve the Destroyer are sometimes hypnotized by his hateful rage from across the Great Seal and fall into a strange bloodlust, longing to slaughter elves and those who worship magic at the alter of the Allmagic.
Primitive clay representations can be found in savage communities of his followers, showing the Destroyer as a hulking, bulbous behemoth of an orc. The missing eye has shifted as a minor fold, the prominent eye now central to his face like a nightmarish Cyclops.
