S'lzan, pronounced "Salazan", is one of the Great Ancients. It commands the Silinites from its underground prison, deep beneath Atar in Maraa. It is also known as the Madness of Many Offsprings due to its power of bringing beings to insanity and to its countless offsprings.

## Biography

To fully understand the horror that is S'lzan, it is needed to start by Oblivion's Rift.

When Oblivion realised the new world Archeus created, he attempted to reach it, opening the Rift between the Pre-Universe and Zenith. Sent back by the conjugate forces of all Primordials and Archeus, he decided to subtly corrupt it, and created entities of great power, called Great Ancients. Having been responsible for the destruction of many worlds, S'lzan was sent to Nihilia after Oblivion understood Nihilia was a planet powerful enough to summon a second Rift.

S'lzan was the first to land on Nihilia, with its siblings following. It later created soldiers, from its, and its siblings', own flesh, to defeat the powerful beings already on this planet that were Nihilites, Oni and Ayin. These creations were Castarians, insectoids of great number but small power, Nezperdians, terrible horrors of fire and ash, Azzaans, generals and hive-minds of Castarians and Krakens, squid-like monsters of great size. Following were specialised soldiers such as the Cipactli, semi-marine and quick on land like under sea, or the Daevas, provided with shapeshifting to act as spies. Then, with all these monsters, the Great Ancients attacked.

In -15,031, the Great Ancients were eventually defeated by Primordials and locked underground, Castarians, freed of their control, gained a free will. In -15,000, when Castaria fell, a tribe fleed and hid under Maraa, close to its jail. S'lzan corrupted its former soldiers and turned them into Silinites.

## Powers and Abilities

As one of the first beings in existence, Ayin hold an immense amount of astronomical power to outmatch every entity in existence except his siblings.

* **Mid-Tier Nigh-Omnipotence:** As a creation of Oblivion, S'lzan holds an immense amount of astronomic power to outmatch any entity in existence with Sophia Atalar being on par with them. Only a few beings in existence can reach its level of power and kill it. It can easily negate the powers of entities below its power.
	+ **Creation:** S'lzan is able to create, it already did it many times.
	+ **Destruction:** S'lzan is capable of corruption and exists for its sole goal.
	+ **Nigh-Omniscience:** As one of the first beings in existence and has existed throughout the period of time, S'lzan knows many things.
	+ **Omnilingualism:** S'lzan can speak every known language to exist in existence and is unlimited. It can naturally understand, read, communicate with any language or person.
* **Biokinesis:** S'lzan can alter or convert any individual into a whole entire different species by its sole influence like it did with Silinites being born from Castarians.
* **Egg Laying:** S'lzan can lay eggs, bringing to life many different creatures.
* **Madness:** More than all other known Great Ancients, S'lzan can cause people to fall to madness with no more than a thought.
* **Immortality:** S'lzan was born from the beginning of time and is way older than Universe, making it way older than a billion of years. S'lzan can never die, age, or wither as it and its siblings will continue to live even way longer than the end of times and existence in the new creation.
* **Nigh-Invulnerability:** As a Great Ancient, no weapon in creation can harm or kill him except for Primordial Level Weaponry used by Primordial Species Level Entities as they can moderately harm it. Even the combined might of Primordials and their servants was not enough to kill the Great Ancients.
* **Primordial Blast:** S'lzan can focus and use a sphere of energy and severely or kill anything below Primordial Species. Against its siblings it would wound them. Multiple blast can knock out a Great Ancient if caught off-guard.
* **Primordial Smiting:** Great Ancients can easily smite a person, similar in the fashion as angels can just by making a hand gesture, thought, or verbally. For Mid Tier Nigh-Omnipotence Entities or Primordial Species Level Entities, it would require approximately 1 minute and only one minute to fully smite them.
