The God of Vengeance

The god of retribution, righting personal wrongs and “an eye for an eye”. People are often wary when dealing with a known worshipper of the God of Vengeance, as her teachings offer little room for letting slide any form of slight, although some of her followers observe these more subtly than others.

As a god of Illiask, they will have a personal name unique to each of their followers, which will come to them during the course of their worship.

Followers of the God of Vengeance do not generally approve of the God of Desperation, whose teachings suggest that one should show kindness to those who are deserving of far less.

  • To falter and show mercy is to encourage the growth of weakness.
