| Description: | Keeerani is one of a pair of twins born of Ulogi and Nyaphante, a demon-succubus who tricked Ulogi into the coupling so that she may sire a god and, through him, work her evil deeds on the inhabitants of Putarrha. When the birthing occurred, she discovered that she had conceived not one, but two potential gods. Thus she raised them both to be strong, powerful and evil. Then the two, called Keeerani and Ibor, were sent to the world of mortals to raise followers.
Each traveled separately recruiting followers by fear and terror and raising armies to spread their reign of horror and destruction. Inevitably the two armies met. For many days the battle raged with neither side gaining the upper hand. Finally Keeerani met his brother and together they swore an oath in their father’s name. It would be they who decided the outcome of the battle by a duel to the death. It was further sworn that the loser’s soul would be sundered into a thousand and one pieces and scattered throughout time and space. To the victor would go the control of both armies and a godhead.
The battle of the brothers lasted for 66 days. No mortal who witnessed the battle lived to tell of it for a darkness of unparalleled dimensions blight the region where the demon godlings fought. At the end of the period it was Keeerani who emerged from the Stygian blight with the body of his twin brother held high for all to see. Then, in a ceremony too horrible to describe, Keeerani stripped the soul of his brother from the corpse and shattered it into a thousand and one pieces. He then ascended to his divinity and the remains of the armies became his first followers.
Priests of Keeerani must us a falchion as their primary weapon. They must also be trained in battle and initiated in blood. There are, of course, no cloistered priests of Keeerani. |
