Morvath

Morvath became the gatekeeper of souls, ensuring that those who die do not linger and that the balance between life and death is maintained. To some he is a necessary force of transition and peace. To others he is a grim reaper, a figure of finality and fear. During the Sundering War, Morvath did not take sides — he saw both light and darkness as temporary while he himself was eternal. But when Malrik's corruption threatened the cycle of souls, trapping the dead and preventing them from passing to the afterlife, Morvath intervened. He created the Pale Sanctum, a realm between life and death where souls wait before passing on. When Malrik was sealed, many corrupted souls remained trapped, forever lingering in the abyss. Morvath does not demand worship, nor does he punish those who ignore him. Death comes for all regardless. Yet some revere him — the Pale Priests keep the grand necropolises, the Soulwardens hunt and seal lost spirits, the Oracles of the Veil communicate with the dead, and the Bonecallers study necromancy not for conquest but to learn from those who came before. As the Three Black Suns approach alignment, Morvath remains watchful but silent. He knows what will happen if Malrik's chains break — the Veil between life and death will shatter and all souls will be at risk. His followers believe that in the end, he alone will stand at the gates of the afterlife, judging all — gods and mortals alike.
