Dark Deity

A Dark Deity are deities who did not participate or agree with the making of mortal kind, believing that the Universe was made to serve the will of the deities and not the newly made mortals. However, there are cults to Dark Deities, as many of them realized using mortal worshippers was beneficial to them. Dark Deities created their own plane of existence away from Ethereal, where the A'vah (Light Deities) live as well as the souls of their worshippers. This plane of existence, the Scouring houses them and the souls of their worshippers. As well, just like the A'vah who create their own realms within Ethereal itself, Dark Deities do the same in the Scouring.
