Marosh the Spider God

According to legend, Marosh lives in a large cave system beneath the ground. Marosh can change his appearance to appear as a young charismatic, innocent looking boy. "Do not be fooled by this boy, he is pure evil" This is stated in several writings from ancient times.  When disguised as the boy, he could wander among people without any attention. As this avatar, he would carry a small dagger with a large amount of venom from his own venom sack.  He would find himself a victim and get close enough to stab them, which was easy given his charisma. After the attack, the venom would paralyze the victim immediately. Marosh would then drag the victim down into his caves where he would hang them on his gigantic web. When the victim would regain consciousness, Marosh would slowly drain them for blood until death occurred.  
Today servants of Marosh carry out rituals throughout Ahrum and Aegamesh. The ritual is performed by kidnapping an innocent person, hogtie them and hoist them up in their bindings. After this, the blood is slowly drained from the victim until death occurs.  While the blood is drained, the servants speak the tongue of Marosh. "Nakh uth Marosh Hekkhol Saarth" which means, "For you Marosh, the almighty". They chant this throughout the ritual until death occurs.  
Servants of Marosh are mostly evil creatures, but certain people are also known to pledge allegiance to Marosh, especially cannibals. Like Marosh, they drink the blood directly from the veins of their victims. When all the blood is drained from the victim, the ritual is over.  It is a common practice amongst servants of Marosh to leave the victim hanging to spread fear and dread within the community which is also a tenet of the religion.  This religion is known in most areas of Ahrum and Aegamesh but is almost always practiced in secret.
