Yig, Father of Serpents
Father of Serpents Yig
Yig, the Father of Serpents, is a half-anthropomorphic Great Old One who is worshipped as a god in Central and Southern Veluntia. While he has an arbitrary and capricious nature he is also fiercely protective of his serpentine offspring and will punish anyone who dares harm them. Even though Yig is quick to anger he is also easy to please as long as no harm comes to his children, the snakes.
Unlike most of the Great Old Ones, Yig is rarely malicious, although he enters a feeding frenzy in Autumn, leading the natives of Veluntia to drum constantly from the 7th month through to the 10th month to drive him away. In addition to this, the natives make offerings of corn to appease him.
