'''Shaitan, the Horned God''' is the Lord of Oppression, and an esteemed [[Elder Gods|Elder God]]. The savage face of Evil takes full manifestation in Shaitan, who seeks to quench His bloodlust on any who stand against Him. He is contemptuous of less than direct methods in His pursuit of greatness, preferring raw power over deviousness: an axe to the throat over parleying with words. Domination over the weak and advancement of the flesh and spirit, at whatever cost, are His. Between He and the [[Apollyon|Suffering One]], the [[Seven Truths]] of [[Evil]] are upheld.

== History ==
Once the God of [[Evil]], He became [[Sartan]] after merging His essence with that of [[Apollyon]]. Once again split from Apollyon, He is now titled the God of Oppression. Shaitan also currently serves as the patron of [[Mhaldor]].

== The Shayatin ==
A fierce and primeval God, Shaitan favours warriors, exulting in the carnage of the battlefield and ruthless slaughter. His followers readily follow their demanding and pitiless Horned Master and are utterly devoted to the path of domination over the weak and the advancement of the flesh and spirit.

== Divine Symbols ==
The holy symbol of Shaitan is an open palm with fingers splayed, on a red background.
