Chernobog

Chernobog, also called The Outsider in certain areas, is the god of death, the main ruler of the Void, and by extension the king of Stygia. He is primarily known as the deity who commands the afterlife, and who is in charge of recycling souls into new bodies. To do this, he employs a number of what are called Masked Judges, which are beings of an unknown origin and species who are in charge of judging a persons actions and deciding which part of storage their soul will be placed in (usually either sending them to Zion, Hell, Bitopia, or keeping them in Stygia as a Shade). Chernobog is considered a relatively distant being, and while he does interact with some of his worshippers (mainly Shadovars and Shades), he has generally shown a disinterest in most divine politics.

History
Chernobog was created alongside Venus by Daoloth as, primarily, a response to what he saw as the overzealous and self-righteous Yadelboth and Zalgo. Chernobog quickly took to his new role and began establishing extensive procedures and systems to handle the dead, which had become a very serious problem due to the buildup of forgotten souls in the Ethereal Plane.

Chernobog was involved somewhat in both of the OCs, in the First Occult War he directly fought against Nyarlathotep on multiple occasions and killed Yog-Sothoth during the Ghostlights Conflict. Chernobog has a rather explicit dislike towards Elder Things and considers them to be dangerous megalomaniacs who believe they are above the law. Chernobog also got involved during the Second Occult War, which was the first time he directly mobilized what is now called the Iron Legions and invaded the fourth layer of the Abyss, severely wounding the demon lord Jubilex.

Worshippers
Chernobog is the sole deity of Voidism, which is not a particularly common faith, though it is most often found amongst Shades and Shadovar. Voidism is rather non-traditional and is generally more about practicing the philosophies of Chernobog and ensuring natural death of things. Chernobog is also simultaneously one of the most inactive but also communicative deities, never deciding to interact specifically with groups of worshippers but instead usually appearing to specific individuals during communions.

Trivia

 * For those who may have played SHIVER and are a bit confused, this character used to be called Eldrin. The name was changed because Chernobog sounds better and also because it was too close to Eladrin and causing some confusion.
