Nerull

Nerull
Nerull is the god of death, darkness, murder, and the underworld. He is known as the Reaper, the Foe of All Good, the Hater of Life, and the Bringer of Darkness. His symbol is a skull and scythe. He is said to be neither good nor Evil.

Relationships
Nerull has a tenuous alliance with Hextor. He is on neutral terms with his chief competition Wee Jas.

Nerull's greatest adversary is Pelor

It is said that Nerull kills Obad-hai each winter.

Dogma
Nerull's faithful believe they will be rewarded for acts of murder, for every living thing is an abomination in the eyes of the Reaper.

Worshipers
Nerull is the patron deity of those who seek the greatest evil for their own enjoyment or gain. Most common folk do not worship or propitiate him, although they fear him greatly. It is believed that any form of appeasement will merely draw his attention, something that is at all costs to be avoided by the sensible. Nerull seems, in fact, to draw power from the very avoidance of his name. Some of the peasants outside of Helios do propitiate Nerull with minor rites, begging safe passage for the souls of the dead. Nerull is sometimes considered to be the god of winter.

Paladins
There are no known paladins of Nerull.

Clergy
Nerull's clerics are feared throughout the lands as cold, calculating murderers. They are secretive and often solitary. When not in disguise, they dress in the same rust-red hue as the bones of their god.

Those who would become priests of Nerull must undergo an arduous initiation that climaxes in being buried alive for a time.
