Iblis the Star Forge Apostate
Iblis
Before you is a monstrous king of a bygone era, from when the gods walked the earth and men stood as tall as trees. His view never drops to look modern humans in the eyes, regarding them as little more than vermin.
Physical Description

A skinless giant covered in raw flesh and burn scars. Blood flows from wounds where iron plates are crudely forced into his flesh to form a makeshift suit of armor. His face is unable to express emotions besides contempt due to his lack of eyelids, lips, or cheeks.

Personal history
Millennia ago, in the Dawn Age, the gods forged the stars from brilliant gems in the fires of Mount Penglai. Each light was fixed in the heavens, until the whole sky was filled. Their work completed the gods, sealed their forges and returned to their godly realm. This holy place remained untouched for centuries.
The sanctum was defiled by the giant Iblis, who scaled Mount Penglai and broke its divine seals. He found three gems within, which had been prepared by the gods but never placed in the sky. These child stars burned burned his flesh, leaving his body a charred skinless hulk, but he grabbed them all the same, such was his greed. The giant placed all three gems in a crude iron crown and used their power to forge a kingdom in the central Savannah of Occidentia. He ruled these lands as a monstrous tyrant until the Age of Slumber.
He has recently reawakened and took back his old capital of Kish, within the lands of the Hundred Tyrants, and is seeking to re-establish his old domain.
