The Flesh of Leviathan

The Flesh of Leviathan is a strange material only given to mortals by members of the Order of the Gash, or by Leviathan himself. It is black in colour and hard, both sucking in light and allowing some to bounce off. When untreated it feels cold and causes the holder to have a strange feeling of being watched, and other unnerving feelings. It can be manipulated by placing it in the hot fat of a recently murdered child or youth. When this is done, some of the fat sticks to it, and acts like a lubricant. It also can become quite malleable, allowing the user to mould it, sculpt it, cut it, etc. When worked it has to be encased in a brass filigree with specific magical symbols worked into the filigree. No other substance sticks to it. The filigree has to have specific markings related to Leviathan himself, or to the Cenobite who supplied it to summon them. It also has to have designs that take in the vice or kink of the Cenobite to. The markings are made of magical sigils or script of some type. These are usually, but not limited to, Angelic script / Enochian, Celestial, Infernal, Abyssal, and/or Deep Speech. Any others do not work.
