Creature CollectionTenebre, the mysterious deity of shadows, assumes the formidable guise of a man adorned in a cloak of ever-shifting darkness, draped over his dark gray skin. His piercing eyes, as deep as the night itself, emanate an eerie glow of dark purple, revealing his divine essence.
When the radiant light of the goddess Drinera bathed the realms of existence, Tenebre materialized as the primordial manifestation of shadows. Holding aloft his godly weapon, a spear of unparalleled might, its spearhead radiates a luminous energy, a captivating shade of dark purple. The spear's ethereal pole, solid as it may be, consists of intertwined shadows in perpetual motion.
An extraordinary trait graces Tenebre's physical form and realm—an aura capable of absorbing any light source within its reach into the abyss that comprises his being. As the luminosity fades into the void, colors surrounding him dim, succumbing to his dominion over darkness.
Tenebre, though a neutral deity, frequently serves as the patron of practitioners of dark magic. He bestows his otherworldly powers upon those who pledge their allegiance, yet the wielders of his gifted magics have full agency over their usage and intentions.
Warlocks who pledge themselves to Tenebre often pay a similar price: the forfeiture of their ocular light. The radiance that once illuminated their eyes is extinguished, replaced by an impenetrable darkness that mirrors their newfound connection to their patron.
Within Tenebre's divine plane, an eternal absence of sun or stars reigns supreme. The denizens of this shadowy realm adapt to their lightless surroundings, possessing abilities such as tremor sense or blind sight, rendering traditional vision obsolete.
