Wallace - God of Madness

As random and unpredictable as they come, Wallace is an embodiment of chaos itself. His most famous exploits are grabbing people and pulling them into a void where they return anywhere from a few minutes to a few days later with no recollection of what occurred. Some say the person is abhorrently tortured. Some say they're tickled. Others say they're getting a footrub. Whatever the case may be, it's definitely...strange.   Most people do not believe in him, and many who claim disappearances by Wallace are considered mad themselves, perhaps in a point of irony. In the rare occasion that he is discussed, it's almost in a mocking fashion, where they refer to the previously missing as having 'been Wallace'd'   Commonly worshiped by: The insane, troublemakers, people who strongly dislike order.

Divine Domains

Divine Symbols & Sigils

Divine Symbol: A face both smiling and weeping.

Physical Description

Special abilities

He has the ability to pull anyone into his 'realm of madness'. The victim will not have any recollection, and instead will react as if they've always been in the world.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

His motivations seem to change on the fly and are just suited to fit his whims, in hedonistic fashion. He may have an intense desire one day to see how many cows he can stack atop one another, and then the next day to create an opera uses only sounds from dropping crackers on the floor.

Author's Notes

Reason Behind the Deity: If someone is unavailable for a session, instead of controlling their character or putting some reason why their character isn't in the session, they will be 'grabbed by Wallace'. The rest of the party will be 'ok with this', or even if perturbed, only slightly. When the player rejoins, whether it's mid campaign or the next session, their character will be 'returned by Wallace', and will continue like normal. They won't have any recollection, and instead will react as if they've always been in the campaign...likewise the rest of the party won't harass them about 'being Wallaced'. After all, it's just a flavor explanation as to why the character couldn't be there.

Thank you. He was originally a house rule, so I thought it was good time to bring him, and his madness, to life.
