Atropus
Atropus, also called The World born Dead, was a massive being of unfathomable power. No one knows exactly how it came to be, but all agreed that it had been around since Ao, the creator god of the Faerûnian pantheon, created the universe.
Atropus, also called The World born Dead, was a massive being of unfathomable power. No one knows exactly how it came to be, but all agreed that it had been around since Ao, the creator god of the Faerûnian pantheon, created the universe. Some claimed that he was a Primordial, the race of deities that contested with the gods for rule of Abeir-Toril. Others said he was the last god created by Ao, a failed experiment resulting in a stillborn god. No matter what he was, it was known that he sought to end life, and that his arrival was heralded by an increase in necromantic activity, leading many to believe he was the remnants of a god of death.
