Master of Unlife
Lesser Deity

The first to discover the process of becoming a lich was a necromancer by the name of Xarios. Having done so, the undead wizard spent the following millenia pushing the boundaries of necromatic magic, creating new breeds of undead, and unleashing these horrors into the living world out of pure curiosity of what might happened. Despite the efforts of champions of the light, Xarios grew powerful enough to achieve godhood, becoming the prime deity of the undead.

Xarios is a cold, ambitious god, concerned only with mastering death and becoming truly immortal and invincible. He has no concern for living creatures, for their feelings or their morals. Although he does not indulge in excessive cruelty, any means necessary to accomplish his goals are acceptable to him. He is obsessed with perfection, and everything he does must be meticulous. He is known to go into quick, but intense rages at the smallest blemish in his work or plans. Although he is the god of the undead, Xarios does not care for the worship of his followers. He only cares about their actual state of undeath if it brings any new insights into his research. Nonetheless, he acts appropriately to his worshippers so long as they can provide new data for his experiments.
