Description

[edit | edit source]

Eldanoth looks like a smiling tiefling with snakes for fingers. He often leaves his body in his copper fortress while he astral projects himself into the Material Plane, where he recruits new followers.

Relationships

[edit | edit source]

A former servant of Orcus, Eldanoth left after his patron's death at the hands of Kiaransalee and claimed an abandoned Abyssal layer as his own. He seeks to become a power of crime and hatred. He has become something of a folk hero in Orcus's realm of Thanatos, where his agents work to sabotage Orcus's plans.

Realm

[edit | edit source]

Eldanoth's realm, the Arch of Eternity, is listed as the 359th layer of the Abyss. It is a blasted plain where a copper fortress has risen from a rent in the earth. Outside, snakes and manes gather to honor the new lord.

Worshipers

[edit | edit source]

Eldanoth is worshiped by criminals.

Rituals

[edit | edit source]

Eldanoth's worship includes the ritual sacrifice of criminals, whose spirits are said to feed Eldanoth's strength.
