Zethas

Background

• Grew up in the Empyrean Court, in the Empyros district of the Court/Liminal.
• Never knew his father, and his mother (a temple servant in the temple of Elbitara) was always treated with compassionate pity by the other deva in Empyros. Zethas himself was treated warily and with fear, which the other children of Empyros picked up and tormented him.
• Eventually ended up spending lots of time alone, eventually making up an imaginary friend for himself.
• Was being beaten up in his adolescence when his devilish aspect manifested, terrifying everyone. He was forced to flee Empyros and ended up living in Hellsward.
• It was there that his imaginary friend revealed that he wasn't so imaginary: he was the god Makoryn, and he had a plan for the young devil-touched deva. He invested him with part of his power and sent him to the temple called the Iron Gaol to learn more about using that power.
• His mentor is the priestess of Makoryn Atera Wynn, although she also seems a little afraid of him sometimes.
• Zethas experiences strange dreams occasionally, dreams sent by Makoryn that reveal to him the next steps the god of tyranny has planned for him.

Personal Quests

• The Nightmare Bringer: Your dreams have revealed one who must die by your hand: the Nightmare Bringer. You do not know her face, nor anything about you, save that she lays worms in the skulls of those she dominates. Her domination is impure and anathema to Makoryn. Your first step is simple: go to the Rose & Thorn Inn, and find a small group of those who are new to Liminal. They will eventually find her; you only have to be there when they do.
