History


   Darhaskos is one of four god “siblings” that take the form of sets. Like numerous other gods, he was brought into existence by the sheer power of belief. Given the popularity of sets as pets in Velukaelo, it’s no wonder that they ended up having a place in the legends passed down from generation to generation in many different societies, giving rise to deities that bore semblance to the treasured weasels. Darhaskos is a relatively new god (only a century or two old), brought into existence around the same time as Kenkasaei, Ochredari, and Saudriga. When Darhaskos isn't visiting his siblings, he is roaming the lush jungles of Lucedar collecting rare poison and venom extracts. He is known by the surrounding inhabitants as a prankster, though he is not exactly feared as he has only killed those who have outright attacked him.

Darhaskos is associated with the notoriety path as those are the ones who most frequently seek his aid. He will lend his power if those who seek it manage to see past his efforts to frighten them away and come bearing gifts he deems useful.
