[color=2e2c2c].[/color]The Glutton... a being that is so outside the lines nobody knows why it exists or where it came from. Some say it came from the void... others say it's some divine punishment for all the sins committed. But, the Glutton takes the shape of a massive bright orange sun with an incomprehensible black mass slithering underneath it. Eons ago the creature went on a rampage throughout the All-Verse, consuming all it came in contact with. 

Nobody knows why it consumes as the eldritch horror seemingly operates on a completely different wavelength. It's possible that the Glutton feasts on universes in order to survive. In time, it employed more brutal and sadistic tactics as it feeds on emotion - and nothing is more delicious to it than fear, hatred, and love of it. Its rampage came to an end during the final battle in the universe of Glint, it entertained the resistance force even though it could have eliminated them all. 

However, the Child and the Ancients came and did battle with the Glutton and eventually wounded it enough so that the Wielders of the White Light could seal it in Shimmer. Where it rested for a millennium... waiting for the right time to be freed. The Glutton was immensely powerful, even when it was sealed it was capable of powerful feats. First and foremost it could consume anything material until nothing remained. It's most dangerous ability however was its mental corruption abilities. Anyone who was exposed to the Glutton would have their minds dominated by the being if they lacked an Emotional-Field - and even then enough exposure can penetrate it. Once they were infected with the Glutton's seed, the being could affect them anyway it could. The only way to fix this was a purification ability that only a few have access to.[/indent][/cell][/row][/table][indent] Its other ability was that it could give its minions powers to put them on par (sometimes above), even the strongest the extra normal beings. In addition, the Glutton could materialize pieces of itself, warp reality, send pieces of itself out as minions, among other abilities. The Glutton was immune to any conventional means of damage and only the strongest forms of Extra-normal abilities could even stagger it. It remained sealed in Shimmer until it sent forth a plan that would free it and in its arrogance, it injured itself and allowed it to be eliminated by the Awakened...

... or so they thought. The Glutton, before the demise of its main body sent out a tiny fragment of itself out into the void.[/indent][hider=...][i]There is a power [b]beyond[/b] the Extra-Normal[/i][hider=...][i]A power that few are worthy of.[/i][hider=...][i]Are you sure you are ready to go down this path?[/i]
[hider=...][i]If you go down it, you may never come back.[/i][hider=...][i]Your friends, your family, they will renounce you.[/i][hider=...][i]Every cell in your body will belong to her.[/i][hider=...][i]...[/i][hider=...][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/ZXWdn4W.png[/img][/center][hr][table][row][/row][row][cell][center][img]https://i.imgur.com/BsHqY8k.jpg[/img][hr][sup][i]"Mother forgives you."[/i][/sup][/center][color=2e2c2c].................................................................................................[/color][/cell][cell][indent]Accepting the [b]Power of Corruption[/b] is like a lamb being lead astray and falling down the deepest hole one can enter. One realizes that the Power of Corruption is not something that you seek, but instead, it finds [i]you[/i]. The Power of Corruption is taking a piece of the Glutton inside of you, whether you want it or not becoming something incomprehensible, eldritch even. The Power of Corruption allows someone access to the antithesis of the Abstraction, [b]The Condemnation[/b]. 

A Condemnation is an ability passed down from the Glutton to the person, which can range from monstrous strength, regeneration, claws, devouring reality, and more. These abilities Corrupt the human body and cause freakish growths, bones, and a strange orange pus that grows to manifest on the human body... however, the Glutton wants to protect the lambs it has lead astray with all of its unholy heart. All of the Corrupted can hide their horrific form and activate it when necessary.[/indent][/cell][/row][/table][indent]

The Glutton wants its minions to serve it and give their entire being to it... and sometimes some people don't consent to this Corruption. They don't want to serve the Glutton and be the tools of its destruction, which is why the Glutton sunders their minds and takes it over. The less willing a person is to the Glutton, the more horrific their Condemned form will become until they will no longer be able to even have access to a human form anymore. To become a Corrupted, all it takes is a [b]Seed.[/b]. A Seed is a small fragment of the Glutton that takes the form of a glowing orange crystal with [i]something[/i] black moving underneath it. To gain the Power of Corruption, one has to consume the Seed and gain access to a condemnation. 

However, it is not that simple as the Seed is usually offered by the Glutton's herald, the Speaker. For the Glutton to gift these powers, it requires something in return... a sacrifice. Someone has to sacrifice something or some [i]one[/i] they love or care about in order to gain a Condemnation - it can be obvious like a loved one, or something like giving up all of your memories or a piece of yourself. Consuming the seed without making a sacrifice will result in the Glutton taking over their mind and body and making them a slave.

Even without a Condemnation, a Corrupted is physically stronger, more durable and resilient, heals faser, and has far sharper senses. The Corrupted are capable of hearing their God's "whisper" in their ear which sounds like a strange black noise. They can interpret this as instructions or alerting them if something has gone horribly wrong. The Glutton, if necessary, is capable of giving its minions a little extra power boost... which will cause further mutations and degradation of humanity and free-will. Upon activating a Condemnation, all Extra-Normal beings nearly will fear their presence which translates as a strange feeling of fear and terror. A tingle pointing them in the direction of the Corrupted, and it will get worse as the Corrupted fights on and on.
