The Old God

There are stories of an evil power against which brave adventurers once fought. Whether this power was a god, a twisted spirit or a powerful demon is up for debate.

It seems unlikely that the "Old God" was in fact a celestial power, as one would expect to find evidence of his worship today. Worship of demons and spirits are far more commonplace and evident - worship of an actual capital-G God would seem to be indicated, if it actually existed.

Some priests believe the Old God was sent out of this world into a hell from which he could not reach. Some suggest that the Old God was ousted from the realms of gods and sent to the mortal world to serve penance. Very few believe that these scholars' studies have any meaning whatsoever: if the Old God were able to return, would he not have done so, already? The strength and proof of the five Gods is evident in their servants.
