Tormach
Epitaphs: Manslayer, Marauder, Lord of Blood Oaths
Replacing the war god Maligant is the Arch Daemon Tormach, a spirit of relentless conflict. Unlike Maligant, who espoused a strategy to prevent needless deaths, Tormach delights in killing and bloody violence, demanding sacrifices from his followers in exchange for power. Victory itself is unimportant to Tormach—what matters is that as much blood as possible is shed during and after the battle. Murderers and evil-aligned warriors find strength in Tormach, but are apt to give in to their bloodlust before long.Tormach appears as a flaming warrior bearing a helm and a wickedly-curved halberd. He rides a chariot pulled by a pair of chimera.
P. 192 Grim Hollow Campaign GuideThe Arch Daemon of Wrath goes by names such as Manslayer and Marauder, as he has taken over the domain of the war god Maligant. He is a patron and source of strength for evil-aligned warriors. Unfortunately, he cannot offer strategy or wisdom, only mindless butchery and violence. For Tormach, winning comes second to dealing as much suffering and death as possible. Privately, even the other Arch Daemons consider him the weakest of their number.
Though he has tried time and again, Tormach has failed to defeat Miklas the Redeemer, a fact that infuriates him to no end.
P. 35 Grim Hollow Players GuideTormach was one of the most powerful and relied-upon of Maligants lieutenants. He served his God with pride and restraint, until the Gods End war. Having to turn his violence against other Angels changed him. Its believed he had to get rid of all guilt related to violence in order to serve his Mad God. Unfortunately, it did not return with the end of the war.
