Dahar

Dragon-Shaper

He who made the mountains and valleys

Calcinator of Fate

Dahar is the Great God of Creation, and the divine progenitor of the Dahari. As patron of all who shape and all who manipulate the world around them, Dahar is one of the most important gods on Crux. As the supreme god of the Dahari, Dahar is the official and state patron god of the New Kagina Empire. Dahar is also the patron and creator of the True Dragons, though they are not aligned to him.

## History

Like many gods, Dahar is from the Spheres Beyond, though his specific sphere is not known by name. He battled the Druzayast on Crux and assisted in banishing them to their prisons, and during the Age of Creation shaped the continents and mountains of Crux. During the Year of Wrath, Dahar created the True Dragons, and at the end, was banished back to the Spheres Beyond like all other gods. Otherwise, very little is known about what Dahar has done in the past or present.

During the Age of Creation, Dahar shaped the Dahari from organic matter he shed during the battles against the Druzayast. These godspawn proceeded to spread across the surface of Crux, with the largest collection of them settling on Kagina.

## Traits

### Appearance

Dahar appears as a massive glowing Dahari, with many eyes that blaze like the sun and four arms that constantly weave patterns of amber energy. Having skin like freshly cooled lava, Dahar cuts a picture of pure power and divinity into the eyes of any who dare to look upon him; literally so, because looking at Dahar for too long will burn his image into your retina because of how bright his body is. He's also naked, but considering that Dahari have internal genitals, and Dahar is a Dahari, there's nothing to gawk at.

Idols and murals depicting Dahar are almost always painted orange, and constructed of magmatic stones and obsidian. In Kagina, massive statues of Dahar's hands dot cities; though in most countries Dahar is generally a god for only metalworkers and other craftsmen, leaving Kagina effectively alone in its worship and depiction of Dahar.

### Divine Magic

Dahar is very obviously a fan of the molten heat of the earth, and it shows in his gifts. Those that go forth in the name of Dahar have power over all the rock and magma around them, making them horrific opponents, able to incinerate effectively anything that draws their ire. Earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, sinkholes are some of the most destructive forces of nature, and Dahar's chosen can conjure up these disasters with little effort, becoming living embodiments of the mantle of the planet.

Inherently, Hydromancy and Cryomancy are opposed to Dahar's magic, but Pyromancy and Geomancy are easily synthesized; Dahar's magic is opposed to both umbramancy and luxomancy, but strangely not to heliomancy, but is opposed by the other celestial magics such as lunaromancy and astromancy. Logically, Hadalomancy is repelled by Dahar's magics.

## Dahar's Sphere

Dahar's sphere is unnamed it seems, but is a molten world of flowing magma. Without an atmosphere, those that dwell in the kingdom of the Calcinator of Fate are fully capable of surviving the inferno they are born into. Dahar himself sits on a throne of obsidian at the heart of his realm, swirling in every direction to gaze upon his realm; nothing goes without the observation of Dahar here. Unlike his rival Shuliak's Shu-Azalac, Dahar's Sphere is not shattered, as long as one can survive the lack of atmosphere and extreme heat one can traverse Dahar's realm.

### Inhabitants

Other than Dahari, Dahar's domain is full of magmatic creatures and creatures of molten stone. Many creatures native to this hellish realm appear to be fiery lava-skinned demons, the big and red kind in particular.

## Trivia

One book in circulation is an erotica/romance novel, in which Shuliak and Dahar are boyfriends torn apart by circumstances beyond their control. Both gods, and their cults for the matter, have attempted to destroy all copies of it and illegalize its printing. This has not worked.

he's basically brahma, including the asshole part
