Torog

The dark god of the endless tunnels and caverns beneath Chronala, Torog is the patron of torturers, slavers, and jailers across the realms. His violent tears carved the pathways under the world, and his realm of imprisonment is a network of deadly caves and manacles from which few return. Creatures that wander the desolation of Carceri often construct prisons in his image. Those who rob others of their freedom offer prayers to him in cellars and other subterranean domains, and many creatures who live in the darkness below worship him and seek his guidance.

Torog remains banished within an unknown sliver of the Far Realm that now borders the deepest pits of the Underdark, where the boundaries between worlds grow thin and birth terrible abominations bent on subjugation.

Enemies. Pelor and Raei defeated Torog during the Cataclysm by luring their nemesis above ground. Pelor pierced Torog’s tenebrous body with ten thousand lances of sunlight, and the Everlight imprisoned him beyond the boundaries of Chronala. The tears of pain and anger the Crawling King shed burned through Chronala, and his faithful fled into these tunnels to escape their enemies’ holy light.

Torog, the Crawling King

Depiction. The Crawling King is rendered as a swollen, malformed worm that slithers through the dark below, with a screaming, hairless human head at the helm and three arms carving through the lightless rock.
