Cult of Gnarok
Gnarok’Khathor’s sole mission is to obliterate the Primordials—Xylogthul'naar, Kronthal'gyrm, and Ith'Nazthark—and ultimately Kla-Riltho, the All-Father of Gods. Fueled by an insatiable rage and a desire for ultimate destruction, Gnarok’Khathor will stop at nothing to see the cosmos wiped clean of all divine beings. It is not driven by any sense of justice or retribution, but by an overwhelming need to end all existence, to erase the burden of life and death from the universe.
Appearance: Gnarok’Khathor is a towering, monstrous figure, its form constantly shifting between a skeletal frame draped in shadows and a mass of pulsating, burning flesh. Its eyes burn with an intense, crimson fire, and its voice echoes with the tormented screams of countless souls. Its presence brings an oppressive sense of dread and despair, causing even the bravest to falter in its wake.
Personality: Gnarok’Khathor is the embodiment of relentless, unyielding hatred. It is consumed by its desire to destroy, with no room for mercy, compassion, or hesitation. It views all life as a burden, a source of pain that must be extinguished. Gnarok’Khathor’s rage is so profound that it is said to infect those who encounter it, driving them to madness and violence. Despite its destructive nature, Gnarok’Khathor possesses a twisted sense of purpose, believing itself to be the final solution to the suffering of existence.
