Quasxthe

Quasxthe, usually depicted as a monstrous tentacular humanoid of the deep, is considered the god of evil depths, as well as the Inundation, which he is believed to have been responsible for. All the speciess which naturally dwell in the sea respect him, and anyone who considered themselves better off in the world of near-omnipresent ocean pays some honor to him. Even many mixedfolk admit that the histories hold that the world is much more peaceful than before the Inundation, with various savage and evil species largely eliminated; worship of Quasxthe is the official religion of Gus. Only the elves near-universally oppose Quasxthe; their longer generations mean that their culture can more easily recall the time of continents, and they oppose all mucking about with the natural order of things on principle, deific intervention or no deific intervention.
Quasxthe and Mirk are bitter rivals, for reasons no one is quite certain of. Quasxthe also comes into frequent conflict with Numiel. He has been known to work with Hafgufa, and occasionally attempts to direct the ire of the Burning Hate upon his foes.
Cephalopods and other tentacled creatures, floods and tidal waves, Sharks and carnivorous fishes, golden spirals and the number φ, bioluminescence, cats, perfectly stacked pancakes, jellyfish, and slime are sacred to Quasxthe.
Quasxthe allows polygamy for the aristocracy (although he is very strict about faithfulness within the confines of relationships, even polygamous ones), and he smiles upon bisexuality. Some followers believe that he frowns upon disgusting mortal acts like sex and prostitution.
