Gol'Zhek, the Skull-God of the Lush Island

Gol’Zhek resides in the deepest parts of a great temple, placed in the jungle of the Lush Island south of the Argipelate Union. The only people who know his name are his followers, and these are almost entirely natives in the jungle, and so do not speak to anyone else. His title, the Skull-God, comes from the great bronze statues that are erected in his honour, and any ritual involving his mystical magic of painful decay, require parts of - you guessed it, a skull. His presence is not really felt in other parts of Calmar, and many are even unaware of his existence. His three Heroes are the only real sign of his existence away from the Lush Island, and they do not speak about him in any way shape or form.

When it comes to appearance, think of Gol'Zhek as a golden statue of a skull, with glowing green eyes. His voice is a very cliché deep, rumbling voice like those you'd imagine say "Who dares enter my realm!?".



His three heroes are as follows:

Zhaivan, the Javelinman. This negroid man is dressed in a jaguar skin is unmatched in his skills with a javelin. And he is a master of tracking and downing his prey whenever he finds one. Karlin, the Botanist. A large, yet hunched over man, who wirlds a wooden staff with poison ivy growing out of it. He is dresed in a robe made of leaved, and his white hair is long and unkept. And yes, he is the master of plants and such. Like a plantwise druid, but very powerful. Haeferrum, the Crimsomancer. This pale, thin, hairless, and scarred man seems to appear only in places of worship, where he commits gruesome and bloody sacrifices to seemingly imbue himself with immense powers. Not a popular Hero within the Empire, and not often seen either.
