Sargatanas

Where there is strife; he is there. Where there is suffering; he flourishes. Where there is joy… well, one could hardly celebrate without conflict. After all, what would one be without it? An unmoving, and unfeeling stone.

None can say when the elder god Sargatanas came into existence. He is the embodiment of conflict, and as long as it had existed, so too did Sargatanas.

His influence had corrupted the elder dragon Saatur, inciting him to spill the first blood; the blood of Ngûrtanë. From the first blood, Sargatanas congealed into physical form and thrived, unleashing war and death upon the physical plane created by Nuavarya.

Sargatanas, god of blood, is the patron god of warriors, warmongers and soldiers. Worshippers of Sargatanas carry phylacteries. They use these to keep the blood from the foes that they fell for tribute. Despite the zeal of those that follow him, Sargatanas is not sadistic or cruel. He simply is.
