God of DestructionFormally known as Garuukhavahriehs Ruukhrahvuumakhooron Miruukhavikhneaon, Garukavar is the god of destruction. Nikina is his opposite in that he is a personification of all things being destroyed and passing away. His children and offspring are called Odanon. As well as representing and instilling destruction, Garukavar is often connected with immorality, the idea of terror and fear, and other negative ideals, though his destruction isn't necessarily positive or negative.Garukavar's AppearanceAll that is known about the appearance of Garukavar's physical form is that he is a tall and strong man with dark skin. Nothing more is known as none have ever laid eyes on him. However, many rumours find their away around. One is that he is like a giant suit of unearthly black armour and that, though he weighs a lot, moves silently and strikes like a snake with spined weapons. Another is that he looks like a short man wreathed in dark cloaks, concealed like a vampire. Whatever the case, he is widely feared.Garukavar's MinionsUnlike Nikina, Garukavar takes it upon himself to spawn a whole manner of monsters who then fall under the command of The Enemy. Garukavar rarely commands these monsters directly. Almost all matters pertaining to mortals on Riiga and their torment go through The Enemy. As it is Nikina's duty to sustain the creation of Riiga, it is Garukavar's duty to send down waves of monsters to attack people. For more information on Garukavar's monsters, see The Enemy. HistoryWhen Nikina created Ilertav, who created Riiga, Garukavar spawned two colossal beasts. One was Raildon and one was Shyokro. These two beasts fought Ilertav, but they lost the fight. After this, Nikina created Renin and then humans were born. In revenge, Garukavar created Votorimin, who would soon corrupt the weaker humans. After Votorimin was born, though, Garukavar created no more children. His children, however, had offspring of their own.Garukavar has less to do with people than they think he does as it is his duty to give orders to his minions and not to do things himself. Figures in the past claim to have seen Garukavar or had a direct dealing with him, but they are most likely lies. It is said Garukavar's form doesn't even leave his lair, deep in Adumbra. AbilitiesJust as Nikina can bring life forth, Garukavar can just as easily end it. Because such a notion is terrifying, this in itself makes him widely feared. Again, Garukavar has great skills with spears and swords, though it is not known how he fights. Having said that, it is not known whether he fights at all. Because Garukavar is a god who does not hesitate or feel regret, if he could fight, none would be able to stop him because of that alone. Garukavar is a master at using Adumbra magic, as are all the gods and many of the deities. Some become confused as to how Garukavar can create monsters when he is supposed to only destroy. Because monsters are not truly living beings -- they have no proper place in Riiga -- they are merely twisted manifestations of remnants of Garukavar's power. He removes a part of himself, thus destroying himself (though his power still seems infinite) and gives it a new mind beneath The Enemy. As he did not in fact "create" Raildon, Shyokro, or Votorimin (according to the Dutri, he either named them or pulled them from their birthplace, claiming them as his children) and he has only spawned a small number of monsters and granted them with the ability to breed amongst themselves, Garukavar has barely given away any of his power at all. And since the source of his energy is destruction, by creating dangerous monsters, he only grows stronger. Other |
