NEKHARA

Overview

Nekhara is a mystical religion centered around the worship of three powerful deities: Shinsut, Sekgash and Tutankhanut. This faith weaves a complex tapestry of dark magic, rebirth, and the relentless force of eternity. It is critical to lives of the undead nation of Djed, where all citizens must practice it or else…

Deities

Shinsut

Title: The Necromancer

Domain: Dark Magic, Knowledge, Death, and Rebirth

Symbol: half human half lion encased in gold.

Attributes: Shinsut is a figure of immense power and knowledge. He is known for his mastery of necromancy and his role in the downfall of the Djed’s human civilization.
