From BattleMaster Wiki
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The embodiement of evil and discord, the enemies and traitors of the pantheon have shunned the Great Serpaent and his power. They seek to disrupt the natural order of the world.

Calamar

Calmar

Calamar, the Giant Squid: ancient enemy of all. Ancient enemy of the deep, who constantly battles the Great Serpaent and is a threat to ASI. Capable of taking many forms, he has caused discord and chaos with the formation of many cults anti-thetical to Magnus and his order. Known to strike without warning, other names associated with him are Kraken, and Oegops.

Glaux

Glaux, the Owl: the usurper. Once a powerful servant of the Great Serpaent, it was the keeper of wisdom, and knowledge. Glaux sought to usurp the Great Serpaent's power in the world but was soundly defeated by Magnus and was forced to flee into the night sky. Is constantly hounded by Corvus, and is forced to feed upon rodents. Serves as Calamar's representative, and has been known to use lies and deceit to ill effect.

Lykos

Lykos, the Wolf: enemy of man. The first to befriend man. Lykos grew jealous as the Great Serpaent began to favor men over the wolf as protector of his kingdom. Now preys upon man and his dominion on the earth. Refuses to associate with Calamar and Glaux, but is constantly a threat to all men. His hate of his half-brother Nymkos is so great, that even the powerful walker of shadows flees to a dark cave at his approach.

Nymkos

Nymkos, the Wolverine: walker of shadows. The half-brother of Lykos, Nymkos was envious of his sibling's early favor with Magnus and sought out Calamar who quickly seized upon the darkness of Nymkos' soul, and contorted his will to his own. Ever at odds with his estranged half-brother, Nymkos shuns the light and prefers trickery and subterfuge to direct confrontation. Never known to work with any others, Nymkos was the sole power capable of escaping unharmed by Magnus' wrath when Calamar was imprisoned. Capable of great feats of strength, Nymkos opposes the work of Brusus, and rather than seek to destroy men like his brother, instead looks to corrupt them with promises of power and fortune. Cults worshiping Nymkos have been found across all lands, though each one has been stamped out by the followers of Bursus.
