Ssa'Thyr, Leviathan of the Coiled Abyss
Ssa’thyr is a colossal Leviathan, a creature of unfathomable age and terrifying power that dwells in the darkest depths of Aigusyl’s oceans. This titanic sea serpent’s scales shimmer with an otherworldly iridescence—shifting colors between abyssal blues, deep purples, and ghostly greens—that seem to absorb the very light around it. Its eyes burn with a cold, ancient intelligence, glowing faintly like distant stars through the ocean’s crushing depths.
More than a mere beast, Ssa’thyr embodies the primal fury and mystery of the sea itself. Its movements churn the waters with tempestuous force, capable of summoning storms and tidal waves that reshape coastlines. Legends say Ssa’thyr’s roar can be heard echoing across the waves before a hurricane, and its breath carries a chilling mist that brings madness to those who linger too long near its domain.
Feared and revered, Ssa’thyr holds a revered place in The Revelry of Ruin, commanding respect from lesser sea deities, archdevils, and eldritch spirits alike. It is both a destroyer and a keeper of balance, ensuring the oceans remain wild and untamed, free from mortal domination.
Despite its fearsome nature, sailors and coastal folk sometimes leave offerings to Ssa’thyr—precious pearls, rare coral, or the bones of great sea creatures—in hopes of appeasing the great leviathan and avoiding its wrath. Stories tell of the serpent’s rare moments of curiosity and even mercy, but these are fleeting and shrouded in myth.
