[B]Personality:[/B] H’ngyalith’s reasoning is nearly impossible to truly understand for a mortal. While he’s generally considered to be an evil deity, his own view of existence is one without good or evil. To him, there is only chaos and order, perfection and imperfection. As a creature of chaos, he holds an innate hate for all creatures that are born from order (which is most of them) and considers it his duty to cleanse the multiverse of their imperfection.

[B][U]Abilities and powers[/U][/B]

H’ngyalith’s physical body is currently chained and imprisoned at the core of an unknown planet, which suppresses the majority of his powers. The full extent of his powers and abilities is unknown to everyone but him, as his imprisonment predates both living memory and recorded history. There are however several abilities that he can still use from within his prison.

Dimensional travel – Even when imprisoned, H’ngyalith exists on a multidimensional level. Although he has no control over the spacial movement of his prison, he can force the entire planet, with him inside it, to fade between dimensions, allowing him to spread his influence through any of them. Even without transporting himself physically, his telepathic abilities can cross the dimensional barriers to communicate with entities outside of his current universe.

Aspect of chaos – H’ngyalith’s very existence is tied to the primordial element of chaos. Any of his actions that directly or indirectly cause chaos and destruction will strengthen him, thus his obsession with causing devastation. Because of this, some believe he is either the embodiment of chaos and/or exists to maintain the existence of chaos within the multiverse.

Star-spawn – From his own ever-regenerating flesh, H’ngyalith can craft creatures that will fight for him and do his every bidding. They can escape the planet through the crust and travel through space to wherever their master needs them to go. Alternatively, they can be teleported directly towards a certain location through a spacial rift. This second option requires a group of H’ngyalith’s mortal followers to execute an occult ritual at the intended area.

A wide variety of different Star-spawn types exist, differing in size, appearance and abilities. They are all disturbing-looking by human standards, with tentacles, claws, leathery wings, several eyes and multiple mouths being common traits among them. They can be as small as a cat or as large as a multi-story building. Common abilities among them include rapid regeneration, rapid mutation, fear or insanity inducement and telekinesis.

Telepathy – While his body may be trapped, H’ngyalith’s mind can travel across both space and dimensions, allowing him to communicate with entities almost anywhere. This ability is only usable when the target’s mind is vulnerable, which is primarily during sleep. He’s been known to inject (aspects of) himself into mortals’ dreams, in order to manipulate them to his will and/or slowly turn them insane. Mortals who are mentally unstable are also vulnerable to his telepathy, often letting him speak directly into their minds even when awake.

Mutation inducement – H’ngyalith is known for rewarding his mortal followers by transforming them physically into a superior form, granting them powers similar to those of the Star-spawn. This mutation can only be induced on a willing target and only those who have proven their loyalty to H’ngyalith will be freed from their humanity and blessed by this power.

[B][U]History[/U][/B]

The oldest traces of H’ngyalith’s existence date back to a conflict many millions of years ago, during which his attempt to eradicate all life as we know it was opposed by a wide variety of ancient gods whose names have since been long forgotten. After a war that lasted many centuries and cost countless mortals and deities their lives, H’ngyalith was temporarily defeated. Unable to permanently kill the abomination, the remaining deities imprisoned him inside the core of an uninhabited planet. To ensure the safety of the multiverse, those same deities sacrificed their lives to craft from their own souls the ethereal chains that prevent H’ngyalith from escaping his prison. 

Their sacrifice was successful, for a while. For thousands, perhaps even millions of years, the multiverse was freed of the malevolent creature, until it eventually woke from its pseudo-death once more. Chained and weakened, H’ngyalith was incapable of escaping his prison and exacting his revenge on the world of the living, but even the ethereal chains that bound him couldn’t contain his power completely. At some point in the past 10 million years, the first of H’ngyalith’s Star-spawn, a group of terrible abominations crafted from his own flesh, erupted from the surface of the planet.

As if their minds were one with their creator’s, the Star-spawn travelled through the void of space towards the nearest inhabited planet. Though their combined might was less than a mere shade of their creator’s, the Star-spawn effectively decimated the planet’s population and left behind little more than a burning wasteland once they were finally brought to a stop. Although his servants had been destroyed, H’ngyalith reveled in the creation of such chaos and destruction and knew that the shift of fate he had created empowered him ever so slightly. His new path had become clear to him.

And so, H’ngyalith’s crusade of chaos was resumed. While he was unable to escape from his prison, his Star-spawn spread out far and wide, crossing both space and dimensional barriers to wreak havoc across the many worlds of the multiverse and to recruit other demented minds to their cause, knowing that one day their master would break free from his chains to drown the multiverse in chaos once and for all.
