The Endless Hunger, The Consuming Void, The Appetite
Nature: Vel'sharath is hunger personified—endless, insatiable consumption. It devours matter, energy, souls, thoughts, reality itself. It is the black hole made conscious, the hunger that can never be filled.
Appearance: A vortex of darkness that pulls everything toward it. Those who see it report feeling their substance, thoughts, and self being drawn in, devoured, consumed. Nothing escapes.
Cleric Domains: Death, War, Tempest
Philosophy: Consumption is existence. To eat is to live. Hunger drives all progress. Take what you need—take everything. Feed forever.
Followers: Cannibals, Soul Merchants who consume rather than sell souls, the desperately starving, those who justify any atrocity through "survival"
Symbols: Open mouths, void circles, chain motifs (bound by hunger)
Rituals: Ritual cannibalism, soul consumption, hunger meditations, fasting to the edge of death
Personality (for Warlocks): Vel'sharath is always hungry, always demanding. Warlocks feel constant hunger—not just for food, but for everything. Power, knowledge, sensation. They can never be satisfied.
