The Shroud of the Void

Supreme Void God of Darkness, Major Deity

The Culmination of Darkness, The Consumer, The Great Deceiver, The Anti-Trinity. A being of many names and many mysteries.

The Shroud of the Void is a god who’s existence is not fully understood. Some even believe that he does not truly exist at all, and that the theories and mythos around him is merely a tool used by mortals to give name to something they do not understand.

The Shroud of the Void is the omnipotent shadowy figure who lurks in the darkest depths of Zol. The unseen hand who sews all destruction and chaos that occurs in Zol, and the master of all Fiends.

# Depiction

The Shroud of the Void is usually depicted as a cloaked figure, who’s robes are formed of writhing dark tentacles that span out into a sea of formless horror.

# Symbolism

The Ferric Alphabet symbol for The Void.

# Behavior

While many stories talk of him with surety, academics would tell you that there is no concrete proof that The Shroud of the Void exists as the single entity many believe. Rather that he may be the explanation given to the vast amount of information that is not understood about The Void.

That being said, the theories around this being talk of him as the first individual to rise up from the Sea of Monsters in defiance of the creation of Zol.

He is thought to orchestrate the dark and hateful beings that did not join The Watcher in the creation of Zol. He seeks to dismantle all of creation, and return it to his feasting ground.

Capable of unimaginable horrors, those who claim to have witnessed this being succumb to complete insanity. Claiming that the incomprehensible eldritch horror that is The Shroud of the Void steals the minds of any who dare gaze upon him, and fills that void with his presence.
