Yashullah, Lady Nothing

The Annihilator, Matron of the First Pantheon

THE VOID IS A JOYOUS THING, FOR IT IS PREGNANT WITH POTENTIAL.

  What is full cannot be filled, and what is made cannot be made. Yashullah is the highest goddess beneath the August God, and the most powerful among those below him. The August God is the spark of creation, the builder, the shaper, and the filler. Yashullah is also a creator - a creator of potential. To most eyes, both mortal and divine, her responsibility looks like annihilation, and because of this they fear her. But she loves all the beings and things within the creation of the August God, just the same as the daughter of a carpenter would be in awe at her father's makings.

Only, she also knows that her father cannot bring himself to destroy his creation, and that her responsibility is to clear the board now and then, sometimes piecemeal and sometimes all at once, so that he can improve upon what he has made. Few have seen the truth of her purpose, and she has few followers on Kraynor - they tend to be eradicated by those that do not understand. But her service is invaluable to the August God, and her place at his side is eternal.  

The Agents of Oblivion

  Yashullah has a number of Agents, those who are made to do what she cannot bring herself to do. They consume, destroy, obliterate, or are the product of such things, somehow.   The Fraying Seam
The Fraying Seam

The world lives and dances. It is meant to. When functioning properly, a certain amount of chaos permeates the order, allowing patterns to kaleidoscope in unpredictable and beautiful ways. When the world has too long remained at peace, in order, it becomes stagnant - no longer a living, dancing thing. What mortals (and many Gods) consider peace and prosperity, the Fraying Seam considers a worse kind of death.   When the world refuses to dance, the Fraying Seam (and its agents) is unleashed to get it moving. The Fraying Seam promises the freedom of lucid madness to its adjuncts, granting them power as long as they vow to use it to instigate and agitate, for better or worse. It wants to see kingdoms toppled, gods slain, power seized, populations eradicated, and fundamental assumptions overturned. But it is also pleased when a single soul refused to be constrained, controlled, or compelled. For the Fraying Seam knows that on Kraynor, a single motivated soul is all it takes to set the world on fire.   The Fraying Seam itself has not been permitted to manifest in the world of Kraynor since the end of the first Era, which it caused. Its symbol is an eye looking through a ragged hole.   Pact Options: Archfey, Fiend, Great Old One, Hexblade, Undead, Undying, Fogstrider, Egoist (secretly)
Bedlam
Bedlam was imprisoned at the center of Tabajima because he would give power indiscriminately to mortals if they cleared his gauntlet.
