Xruul

"'Only through Xruul does life have meaning...' -Ikhic scripture regarding Xruul, the Demigod of Pain" Xruul, formerly known as Rydel Yesjor, is the Demigod of Pain within ancient Elenian texts, and a revered idol within the occult faith of Ikhicism. Originally a great Elven king, Rydel was loved by both his family and his people. However, for some reason, the old king had grown tiresome of his life, and sought to make himself a god. Making a dark deal with the mad Aerili god, Falmaux, Rydel destroyed everything he had gained, killing his family, and mutilating himself to near death. His wish was granted, but he would only know pain for the rest of his existence.
