Old God

The Old God of Nerull was bound to the concept of Destruction. Being antithetical to Ehlonna. Driving mass death and chaos to Lendahnna. When The Relinquent was starting to be discussed it wanted to wipe Lendahnna clean. But was voted against. And therefore happy to leave.

New God

The young Nerull has a great variety of burdens after their creation. Not only do they take the husk of one of the more influential and mutli-focused deities. Their followers are driven to dark desires. As such the new Nerull sees himself as a being who must be the danger for Lendahnna. Taking the role of the reaper, and bent on it’s destruction. Kept at bay by the other Gods.
