Orcus

Orcus is an evil demon god of the undead. He is generally Bad News, and is involved with the Awakening. 
==Powers==
The party does not know the full extent of Orcus's powers, as they have only fought him on the Prime Material Plane, and he is almost certainly stronger on his home turf. On the Prime, he had a powerful necrotic aura, spellcasting abilities, a powerful hammer, a legendary wand, and many immunities. He demonstrated free access to Finger of Death and Greater Dispel Magic, neither of which work very well if you're prepared.
==In Eon==
While investigating a deep hole in a mine owned by the Gloriosa Family, Leilah and Ashra noticed a sickening aura and maddening whispers. When they heard a voice casting Unholy Aura in Abyssal, the two beat a hasty retreat. Leilah's research revealed that Orcus was definitely in the pit, and the party made special preparations to fight him.
The ensuing battle was long and arduous, and ended with the destruction of Orcus's form on the Prime Material Plane. During the fight, Orcus denounced the party as "god-lovers" and showed some connection with the Gloriosas, though the extent and form of his involvement in the Awakening is not yet clear. The party is still not sure what Orcus was doing in the pit, but they suspect this may not be the last time they meet.
