Demonic God Generator: Redux


(Art by Jeremy Jarvis for 3.5e D&D)

I was originally gonna call this post Demonic God ReGenerator but then I was worried people would be confused and not click on it. Anyway a while back I made a random demonic god generator with 20736 possible combinations, and this expanded version should have 1679616 possible combinations. Have fun!

Apit-Rogog, Master of Nightmares

Apit-Rogog is a demonic god that lurks in a Hell accessible only in the darkest of dreams. To those trapped in nightmares, he has sway over. He can appear to these people suffering in their own personal Hells and offer freedom and salvation, in exchange for their service. After he makes his victims swear fealty, he causes them to wake up, but can now contact this newly minted cultist through telepathy. At any point from then on, he can plunge his cultists into nightmare at will as punishment for disobedience.

The cult quickly is ordered to found a new church, posing as whatever religion is most popular and accepted, and to offer salvation to all who want it. Secretly, however, the cult's goal is to instill nightmares in their congregation, telling tales of what will happen in the end of days and the horrendous suffering that will be experienced by the church's attendees if they do not seek salvation. Once the church-goers are sufficiently terrified, they may have nightmares horrid enough for Apit-Rogog to enter through.

Apit-Rogog wants to eventually enter this world and consume it, but he needs enough followers to complete the ritual to do so. In his true form he resembles a vast living shadow, capable of blocking out the sun.


(From Elder Evils for 3.5e D&D)

Daufix, Slayer of Forbidden Knowledge

There are some things humanity is not meant to know, and when such secrets are uncovered, Daufix awakens. In the vast blackness of space, Daufix floats among the stars, a vast, miles-long semi-human face. After some unfortunate scholar discovers a secret he was never meant to know, Daufix opens its enormous cavern of a mouth and screams, its voice telepathically ringing in the ears of its cultists, who set off to kill the being that offended it.

The cult of Daufix is small, consisting of millennia old astrologers, dressed in elaborate cloaks and with the faces of the young. Over the years they have become master assassins, skilled at finding and exterminating those who know what they ought not to know. So long as they faithfully serve Daufix, they will live forever.
