chemosh 'lord of death' 'lord death'
Chemosh, Lord of Death
Lawful Evil
Colours: black and sickly yellow
In the Age of Dreams, Chemosh, the lord of the undead, was drawn by
Takhisis to Krynn. She needed a lieutenant to marshal the legions of death.
As lord of false redemption, Chemosh offers "eternal life": recipients spend
immortality in an undead and eternally corrupted body. Chemosh rarely
explains this when making a pact with Evil undead. Before they can
reconsider, they find themselves to be minions of Chemosh.
In addition to the initial clerical spells, Chemosh also grants the
powers of undead drain, create undead, rip soul, summon, shroud,
control undead, black metamorphosis.
