Writing Worlds with Words

Gods of Ithia: Miecara the Mourner.

Miecara. Lord of Mortality, Death, Decay, Hunger, Thirst, Fatigue, and Want. 

Known as Miecara, The Antlered One, The Fleeting God, The Once Lord, The Mourner, The Circle, The Stag Lord, and The Eternal.  

Lord Miecara is tall, thickly muscled like a man given the muscles and mass of a moose. His great antlers stretch out like two great willow trees, ivy drooping down like branches. He carries a putrid scent; flies and carrion feeders linger around him. Tattered robes cling to his form with braids of tarnished silver and fraying ropes. The skull of a great stag sits upon his massive head like a mask, and he walks like a giant among men. He wields no weapon, but his fingernails have grown long and sharp like the claws of some great predatory cat; his body hair rises like the thorns of a black briar when angered, and his blood burns skin like alcohol in a wound. 

Lord Miecara is quiet, contemplative, with the build of some great Goliathan warrior, the soul of an artist, and the mind of some vicious genius. Once a Lord of the Fairy Court of Death he left with two other fairies to find a way to rise in power outside of the Stagnant fairylands. They rose to power as Pagan Gods, freeing themselves from the shackles of the Fae that bound them to Viilnor and their purpose to the Dance. Miecara embodies the cycle of death, feeding future life, and all that makes one mortal, from hunger to eventual death. He is the master of the Warlock and Witch.
