Kursag

The Thumbless

"God Eternal of all wild creatures as well as the faerie and of the land of Equinox. The fourth blessed Eternal, when Norlane bound Ortho'Fra'Guarn, Norlane used only his thumbs to destroy the giants that attempted to stop her. His hands however were tainted with the chaos of the evil he had touched. To save himself, he bit off his own thumbs and spat them out. As they fell, the bones became Equinox. The blood of his hand became the faeries. The intermingling of this evil and divine power became the wild beasts, capable of both good and evil. The greater evil that lurks from Equinox this day flows to the outside of the land, and beyond this place is nothing but vile void and treachery." - Tales of the Baleful God
