My Lair was bugging me about how crowded it was so i have decided to deleat things and compact things. instead of all Nightkords religions things being in many trends i have decided to put them in one trend. henceforth i have deleated the others, and have kept the relevant information here.
I figure when no one has looked at the topics for a really long while, it can stand to be deleated and raised elsewhere.
eventually i will have all the Nightkord deities listed here.

History/Relationships
Blackhand is a mysterious deity whose history can’t not be traced back to the land of NightKord. His known action in NightKord came when in the year ____, he killed the lesser deity Beulos, who was a paladin god in the Illevian pantheon. Since that time Blackhand has gathered a large following which places him squarely in the rank of Intermediate deity. Blackhand's current goals are conquest and expansion, he is one of the most audacious evils currently threatening Nightkord. Blackhand’s current rivals are most if not all of the other deities in the Illevian pantheon, but the only deity that Blackhand holds very particular scorn for is Eve (the Illevian deity of goodness and paladins, she replaced Beulos whom Blackhand killed).
Dogma
let the fools who stand against Blackhand be destroyed by the power he possesses. Those loyal to the Dark Tyrant shall share in his glory. The world is a dark place of Chaos and anarchy only Tyranny can bring order to the universe. Spread the power of the Dark Lords law across the land. Obey only his laws for all other laws are false. Doom follows all who defy the Lord of Tyrants. One day the dark lord will rule over all the land.
Clergy and Temples
Blackhand’s temples are fortress often operate publicly in many cities, especially in the lands such as Gael. The temples are mighty structures meant to frighten and impress the common folk. His clerics often serve as generals and advisors to lawful evil and lawful neutral leaders. Many of his clergy want to discover where Blackhand came from, all that they are sure of it wasn’t NightKord and some of his clergy actually go forth to try to discover this. Blackhand himself says nothing about where he came from, he appears to be amused by the desire to know his past.
The Current main temple of blackhand on nightkord is in gael and is refered to as the fortress. The leader of the fortress is High Presitiss Seria Marovak.

Dogma
Each being has an eternal resting place that is chosen for him of her at the moment of creation. Life is a process of seeking that place and eternal rest. Existance is but a breif aberration in an eternity of death. Power, success, and joy are as tranisitory as weakness, failure, and misery. Only death is absolute, and then only at the appointed hour. Seek to bring order to the chaos of life, for in death there is finality and a fixedness of state. Be ready for death for it is at hand and uncompromising. Life should be prolonged only when it servers the greater cuase of the death of the world.
