Aza'methet

Aza'methet the Old

> Aza’methet could perceive and manipulate the very dimensions, the primal energies that comprised the universe.  Time, space, physical dimension, energy, gravity, order, entropy, and other components of reality were as apparent to the ancient creature as sunlight and raindrops were to me. Infinity and eternity were its tools and its torment.

## Personality and Characteristics

A creature who measured time by the rotation of the galaxy, with two minds "constantly in a state of war with each other. One mind was possessed with an obsessive self-loathing and the other was consumed with a relentless compulsion for survival, consensus was rare" - Narrative.
Minalan considered Aza’methet mad.
Aza'methet was a creature of great weight. It had a large and heavy shell of neutronium armor upon its back.

> The manifold “eyes” in its stumpy head perceived more than just light and shadow.  They saw past and future as colors or sounds, gravity as a feeling of balance, mere electromagnetic forces as incidental to the underlying reality it traversed.  They detected notes of probability and perceived dimensions in ways I do not have the words to describe.  Magic?  Magic was just one more part of the spectrum of reality, a minor variation on the flawed physics that built reality into its shaky form.

## Early years

Its race was spawned in the fourth great generation of being, created by a race with no memory, hence no purpose or meaning in the act of creation. In the absence of purpose, Aza'methet had been enslaved and worshipped many times over. Its name had been given by the first cult. Other races used Aza'methet for its power to bend reality at their whim.

## Relationships

A solitary creature, Aza'methet confined itself in lonely isolation to avoid those who hunted it.

Aza'methet shared his memories with a Yith.

Aza'methet was a host inflicted on Minalan during his interrogation by Szal the Yith. As such, Aza'methet's life experience and memories are now one of nine held by Minalan. Minalan's other hosts include Tuaa Folauga, Saram, Michael Anthony Palgrave, Lieutenant Colonel Martin Fitzgerald Andrews, Mel Thenreyal, Prince Maralathus, Raer Rinthon, and Umank.

## Summary

### Footwizard

Aza'methet was the last of nine hosts endured by Minalan during Szal the Yith's interrogation. Aza'methet hid from enemies who scattered and sometimes killed its kind. It constructed a crack between dimensions to resist those that hunted. Nevertheless, One Without Form found Aza'methet and they did battle. Aza'methet's enemies had come before and it knew (because time was but a dimension Aza'methet could see and manipulate) this one would come. One Without Form boasted it would defeat Aza'methet. Replying that death held no meaning for its kind, Aza'methet challenged its enemy what it could do. It could take away Aza'methet's memory, was the reply. So doing, the challenger could then bend Aza'methet to its will. Aza'methet replied that could not succeed because it had shared its memory with the Yith. Nevertheless, One Without Form attacked Aza'methet. Minalan witnessed the entire contest. At one point in the battle that raged across eternity and dimensions, he saw Aza'methet construct a lure of snowstone, then bludgeon the intruder with a length of magical obsidian, producing a catastrophic blast that intruded into other realities. Eventually, Aza'methet prevailed and consumed One Without Form.
