Orcus
(a.k.a. The Fleshweaver)
Orcus is the god of undeath and ruler of the 113th layer of the abyss Thanatos. Orcus loves nothing more than to stay within his realm and brew new and horrifying undead creatures using fallen heroes or enemies as a base. During The Scourge Orcus was a simple Demon Prince, but due to the massive amount of death he quickly fed off this raw energy and despite The Raven Queen trying to stop him he ascended from a mere Demon Prince and eventually became a full fledged god of undeath. Despite this he was eventually banished, but before this The Raven Queen would cut off one of his horns sending it across the world. Present day Orcus resides in the abyss hoping one day to get his revenge on The Raven Queen while creating his undead army.
