History

Abyss is also known as the Destroyer or the End of Ages. She is the Goddess of Destruction. Those who worship her are either insanely bold, wishing to be her mortal instruments by destroying and conquering all they can, or those who wish to avoid coming to her attention at all.

Her places of worship are atypical. She prefers destroyed temples, tainted lands, or bloody battlefields. Since it is believed that to look upon her is to be utterly destroyed, body and soul, her followers instead hang winding sheets in lieu of statues.

Her blackguards are utterly devoted to her. Former followers have been known to be hunted by her elite guards.

Principles

Abyss' focus is utter destruction, the end of entire ecosystems, the end of entire civilizations, the end of great ages. The weak are destroyed, fall into extinction and are forgotten by history while the survivors of such catastrophes—whether sentient races, plants, or animals—will eventually rise again, cleverer and stronger. In time, the destruction cycle will be repeated and the survivors will again grow smarter and stronger.
