Gods of Ithia: Dirgminsk the Riptide.

Dirgminsk. God of the Drowned and Sunken. 

Known across the plane as Dirgminsk, The Drowned, The Riptide, The Breaker of Hulls, The Coral Death, The Depthless One, The Abyssal Lord, and The Drowning Dark. Son of Zale and Zatolen. 

His Symbol is the Dying Light – A pale hand reaching forth from inky water grasping at a dying star.  

Dirgminsk is rarely visible, a figure in layers of dark soaked clothing, a thick hood covers his face in a strange abyssal darkness. Light bends around him as if deflect by too much water. The ground becomes waterlogged underfoot, and one can see in the barely visible murky eyes the screaming faces of so many sailors drowning in the thrashing waves of his mother’s domain. 

Dirgminsk is a faithful and dedicated son. He has become the terror of the deep, defender of his mother from monsters like Haltheris, and a bringer of ends. He keeps the treasures of the surface horded away in the depths and is one of the most wrathful and spiteful of Gods to those who do not honor his mother.
