The Church of Chaos
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral
Spheres of Influence: Chaos (All), Pestilence (Shiv), Nightmares/Bats/Insects/Cats/the Unseen/the Silent (Night Lord), Entropy (Erok), Chaos Magic/Life/Procreation (Kara), Death (Arkady)
Tenets of the Faith: The followers of Chaos pay their respects and worship to the Lords of Chaos. The Lords of Chaos is a group of five deities who joined their powers together in a way not seen before. When one worships one of the Lords of Chaos, the others also receive a portion of the worships power. This is what has contributed to their status as Greater Gawds. The Lords of Chaos appear to share spheres with other deities but often it is a chaotic version of that sphere (such as random, senseless death that Arkady sometimes represents).
Worshipers revere all the Lords of Chaos, but mostly generally gravitate their worship to one in particular. Since the worship is shared, an individual Lord of Chaos is just as likely to bless a worshiper of Shiv or Erok as they would their own. The only known conflict between worshipers is between those who follow Kara and Arkady, as the spheres of life and death are opposed. Often this takes the form of rivalries that rarely come to blows, as the followers of other Lords keep them in check.
The Lords of Chaos:
Shiv - The Lord of Pestilence often appears as a 10' tall rotting skeletal humanoid creature with the arms of a beast with clawed hands. His head is that of a great stag's skull with a ten-foot antler span that has three-inch fangs that protrude from his snarling mouth. A pair of rotting bat-wings are often folded behind his back.
Shiv's color of choice is a pale yellow.
Night Lord - The Nameless often appears as a thin six-foot tall humanoid with a completely featureless face.
Night Lord's color of choice is a dim yellow-green.
Erok - Lord of the Seven Darks, Duke of the Higher Hells often appears as a slight, fair, and supernaturally handsome man who often looks elven, human or half-elven. He always caries a great sword made of of adamantite with him.
Erok often refers to himself as Chief among the Lords of Chaos, as he often tries to take a leadership role though his malicious and whimsical nature often hinders this.
Erok's color of choice is red.
Kara - Kara the Traveler, Mistress of the Eternal Cycle, Lady of the Dark Magics often appears as a very, very beautiful woman who stands about five feet tall with short dark hair, arched eyebrows, and a seductive smile that gives a hint of dainty fangs. She is always seen wearing a medallion around her neck that is in the shape of an inverted five-pointed star.
Kara's color of choice is blue-black.
Arkady - Arkady the Reaper appears as an eight-foot-tall skeleton clad in voluminous black robe wieldling a ten-foot-long scythe that is made of cold iron.
Arkady's color of choice is black.
