Uvartoch (old)

Uvartoch is the god of bloodshed, who has taken a morbid fascination with the eldritch. In brazen defiance of their most sacred law, he demands his followers spill the blood of mortals and consume it in his name. In return, he grants them grave powers so they may spill yet more blood. His is a vicious cycle of bloodshed.

Though not a war god as such, it is not uncommon to make sacrifice in his name before a fight. Though he holds no domain over the act of battle in and of itself, a warrior who ritualistically spills his own blood may yet find himself under the blessing of Uvartoch.

Uvartoch is among the more powerful of the gods, and is worshipped all over The Mortal Realm. He has been locked in a struggle with Sylfay and Balogh the Cleaver, on the island of Elys for many aeons.
