Gaa’aram

Sovereign of Betrayal and Bloodshed.

Lore pending

This page carries Gaa’aram’s strictures and little else. The wider lore of his faith — his shrines, his rites, his clergy, his place among the Sovereigns — has not been written yet. What is here is complete and canon; it is simply not the whole page.

Cruelty is its own reward. A follower of Gaa’aram is the spear in your face or the knife in your back, in equal measure. What matters is that blood is spilled, and that others will see it and hear of it. Those who have seen Gaa’aram’s brutality will take care not to be next victim.

His shamans come and go unseen, compel the will of others, and cut them down when they are done. The strongest among them can bestow a curse with his evil stare.

His worship is only known among the orcblooded.

Traditions that teach him: the Orcblooded Shaman.

Strictures

Orcblooded Shaman

• The shaman must gloat over vanquished foes, displaying his holy symbol (the bloody knife) as he does so.
• The shaman must offer libations of fresh blood just after sunset each day. The blood must have been freshly collected that day. If he has not collected any blood, he can prick his own flesh until he bleeds, suffering 1 damage. Performing the offering properly takes 1 hour.
• If the shaman is wronged, he must exact retribution of threefold value from the one who wronged him.

The bloody hand

Cruelty is its own reward. While a follower of Gaa’aram gloats over the fallen because it is fun, it also carries a message to those who witness it - come against me, and the same will happen to you!
