Bangputys
Bangputys, the World Leviathan, is a Prime Deity of Renegades' Pantheon, having joined them after corruption. He is a god of dephs, greed, poisons and storms that terrorize all coastlines and open waters. He is believed to be a creation of Temriaz, once upon a time being the Ruler of Open Seas, but after answering the call of the Black Sun, transformed into a dark, malicious reflection of his former self. Under the corruption of the Void, Bangputys reached a new level of existence, stretching his being around the Material Plane itself, through oceans and underground spaces. Many people believe, that Bangputys is the one responsible for death storms in the Tranquil Expanse and near Serpent Teath Islands, as well as bad weather in seas.
Due to Bangputys's unpredictable nature, not many dare to call on his name, fearing to call upon themselves World Leviathan's desire for chaos and pain. Those who do are most often hired mercenaries, adventurers and those consumed by greed and lust for power. Some sailors try to appease the Leviathan in the upcoming storms, by throwing off treasure chests or large livestock overboard.

Appearance
Many portrayals of the Bangputys are taken from his smaller counterparts - Sea Leviathans - and modified to represent their corruption by the Void. The World Leviathan is said to have scaly, with different protrusions body; luminescent, glowing details on the sides of their head and down their throat; two clawed limbs on the front that they use to crawl through the bottom of the ocean, and multiple spiky tentacles all across their lengthy serpent-like body. Closer to his head are placed three pairs of scaly wings.
