Maelphegor

From FeyworldWiki
Jump to navigationJump to search

Maelphegor was created by Dagon to oppose Lord Ptharos, also God of Air, and is one of the three Inimicures, along with his brothers Enosigaois and Taltos. Maelphegor has a surprisingly large priesthood who are split into two major sects: the Karakaels, or Windlords, concentrate on Maelphegor’s interest in madness and believe that insanity brings insight. The Crimson Cowls focus more on his interest in revenge and tend to support large groups of loosely organized assassins wherever they are established.

The priesthood is banned in many states and, as such, often operates in secret. The most significant temples are founded on high mountain peaks as a show of defiance to Lord Ptharos.
