Hod - God of Undeath

Description

"Hod is the void."

Opening verse of the Cruxamilon


Hod is who found, claimed and mastered the powers within the Negative Energy Plane. Also known as the Plane of Death or The Void.


Hod Stirs

The Dthoum'uun (undead) have been unseen in recent history and for the most part lost to time.


Barring the ignominious events surrounding the Mourrah'Crowl resurrections and then the subsequent hunt and cull of the beings known as "Crowler Wights", there has been very little believed Necromyn activity reported for an entire ocean of time.


The slowest slithering glaciers have since picked up great boulders from and across the mantles face and have ground them down to dust. Hundreds of cultures of living beings have been birthed, swelled and have long since gone extinct. Islands have risen, and babbling streams have cut entire valleys as furrows that now lie lower than the level of the great seas.


But these happenings in that ocean of time has been but a single drop that hangs from the end of a nauseous gargoyle's tongue. We here are in that instant before the great retching. Readying ourselves as the leaning gargoyle is poised to purge.


I am sure that you see the limited number of Dthoum'uun that are still aware and among us on the mantle's crust.


This fact is undoubtedly related to the loss of the undead army and the subsequent razing of the Crypts of Chuul and the deep exhumations and banishments of many Bonded Followers of Hod. It is even rumored that three Undead Lords were found during the crusaders campaigns and that their whispers have not been heard since.


Hod has not shown interest here and has allowed those that remain to hide, or slowly roam the dark, or to simply lie down and accept a long and rending rot.


But....epochs are where truths are slowly turned into the loam of the earth. And to within the earth be either forgotten or transformed. Such lengths of time can compel the weak to be restored and inviting the darkest secrets themselves to walk confidently among us without our knowing.


The very gait of our own shambling feet and the squeaking grate of our graveyard's gate are themselves the sounds of an epochs end. And another dark secrets beginning. Along with those few others who have become recently ambulant. These are the third and last recognised sign that an elder's age might be resurfacing from its blighted hollowed place.


Long crepuscular fingers are reaching out as the signs themselves. Signs that Hod stirs. And portents such as these are Hods own uncurling dark and raking immortal claws.


But the portents are there for those who would see them.


The first portent is above us even now although few would ever know it exists. It is a pulse of unseen light. Pfecdema-Prime was observed as being peculiarly placed during the vernal equinox. At the apex of its stellar arch there is proof of a hidden body's ecliptic ascension.

The excandescent star has again risen!.


The second portent is below us even now. Through the tumults being reported among the major centers of many living populations. But it is not the shaking earth itself that is the sign but the deep cracks they have caused. Something very old is seeping up and creeps along the low and shadowed spaces under us. These are the most semblant and noticeable symptom. the earths deepest darkened bones have been broken. Their misty murk and wormy marrow rising finally up. A languid sloughed rotting pulp. A heavy spreading and sordid energy from the It of most unknowns. I have seen these things as the second sign of changing times.


And the third portent ..........is you.


And those recently risen like you.


The few that have been risen up by against the permanence of death and away from moribundity and limiting mundane existences. Pulled up by the chains of shadow either willing or not.


Seek the void and be pulled up by the chains of shadow.
