Menoch, Morokain, Nergazu

Three more patrons for cults and weird warlocks in Krevborna. This time we've got an eldritch scholar of horrid secrets, a biblical lord of murder, and a disease-spreading demon.

Menoch, The Chained Scholar

Menoch is an eldritch entity from the Outer Dark that feeds on madness; it pushes mortals to seek arcane secrets and forbidden magics that are likely to drive them into the throes of insanity.

    • Menoch’s avatar takes the form of a man-like creature wrapped in chains, its face obscured by a hooded robe.

    • Menoch is responsible for inspiring mad mages to pen grimoires containing hideous truths.

    • Cults devoted to Menoch often begin as antiquarian societies and academic salons.

    • Isolated hermits and eccentric magicians who devote themselves to Menoch wear shackles at their wrists adorned with hanging chains.

Morokain, The Lord of Murder

According to the Holy Blood Bible, Morokain was the first murderer, accursed with immortality and doomed to wander as a pariah.

    • Morokain is said to be a brutish man with a brand on his forehead.

    • Morokain’s curse grants him enormous eldritch power; it is said that there is nothing he cannot kill.

    • Assassins, killers, and bandits revere Morokain as a god.

    • The Skarabasca are among the most infamous of Morokain’s devotees.

Nergazu, The Demon Lord of Plagues

Nergazu is the Demon Lord of Plagues, one of the most disturbing of Hell’s demonic princes.

    • Nergazu’s avatar manifests as a demon with a toad-like head and the wings of a carrion bird.

    • Bodily degradation and the fear it engenders are Nergazu’s sphere of demonic influence.

    • Nergazu’s cults are often small and are often comprised of outlaws, outcasts, and abject criminals.

    • Nergazu’s cults engage in activities such as poisoning wells, spreading contagions, and other acts that endanger public health.
