Keresis is the Goddess of Vengeance. Often seen as the avatar for the mortal urges of emotionless plotting and revenge, Her realm embodies both the passionate and the cold-hearted. Her presence can be that of a raging, obvious inferno, or a cold, inconspicuous plot; Her idea of a perfect act of revenge is the systematic destruction of the mind, body, and soul.

History

She was once a Dreadlord of the Elder God Shaitan who fought at His side in the Chaos Wars, but through various means has gained the power to rise as a God in Her own right. Centuries later after Her ascension, was called to return the favour She owned Shaitan. She performed the Sundering, splitting the God Sartan into Shaitan and Apollyon. Since then She has embraced their cause of Evil, bringing Vengeance alongside Suffering and Oppression.

The Chosen of Keresis

Those who desire to obtain entrance into Her order must understand and embrace Vengeance as not simply a means to an end, but a way of life. They are expected to see Vengeance from all sides and seek to understand its myriad facets. All aspirants should have a grasp of what revenge means to them, and be able to temper their natural instincts in favour of the bigger picture.

Little is known about the practices of the devoted followers of Keresis.

Divine Symbols

Her Divine symbol is of a sword pointing down with a large python twisting around the blade. Perched upon the pommel of the blade is a large crow with its wings outspread.
