Eidolon: Trypstryxes


Cataclysm & Oblivion


After the Cataclysm, an event that destroyed All- Life, the Old Gods that had perished were reborn in a place known as Oblivion. To each possessed a fragment of Divine Source, the remnant of the All-Soul. Like moths, they gathered in bloody slaughter, consuming the Divine Source from the fallen and harnessing it's power. Deprived of their memories and original forms, they fought until there was only one; from the remains of those dead, forgotten deities, rose an immortal, wicked abomination, Goddess of Destruction, Sebut Sekt.

Shortly after her birth, Sebut Sekt fell into a torpor, known as the Walking Dream. In this somnambulant state, the undesirable parts fell from her and became the first of the Eidolons. Ancient entities with the strength of fallen deities, the Eidolon are enigmatic beings that exist against Natural Order. They hold shards of the Profane Source- a twisted. shadow-form of Divine Source.

TRYPSTRYXES
5, EIDOLON OF METAMORPHOSIS, ABDUCTIONS, INFECTIONS & MUTATIONS

Trypstryxes appears as a tall and gaunt figure enveloped in a pale mist. When Trypstryxes wings expand, a horrifying sight is revealed. Though it has the head of an owl, the head is located on it's lower torso but seems to move about the entirety of it's body, spinning and twisting as it moves. It has long hooked claws on it's wing- like appendages but it's actual wings resemble a moth's wings, folded beneath the body. Two large antennae appear where the shoulders would normally join the neck. Trypstryxes is known as a primordial entity who affected the way that several species evolved; this Eidolon has an unusual effect on Life, causing it to change and mutate uncontrollably within Trypstryxes' presence. It can shape and re- shape, or even destroy genetic codes. It uses this and other powers to hunt it's favored prey. Trypstryxes and it's cult are known for inhumane experimentation.

Behavior & Psychology



Though it is considered one of the Beastial Eidolon, Trypstryxes avoids the other Eidolon. Due to their differences, Trypstryxes and Mara Bao are enemies- one legend claims that Mara Bao's favored children were found and stolen by this vile Eidolon. Trypstryxes stops at nothing to obstruct Mara Bao's actions- including child abduction and experimentation. It then releases these new creatures into the Overworld or, if it attains the appropriate means, into the physical realm of the Ley Corpus. This entity is notable for deviousness and should not be trusted.
