By-Gone Gods

These are two Gods told in Essensian tales and had spawned their worship throughout in their tradition. These gods are named Corpus and Capacity and are the originators of the Formless Darkness. They are not essentially one being; rather they are scores of Unseen that have decided to merge into more singular beings.

Despite Unseen being supernatural creatures that wanted to hold the balance of their worlds, some of them hungered for more. Some of them have started to conquer each other’s worlds in the vain hope of becoming more superior gods. What happened was entirely unexpected – the death of an Unseen meant that their assigned worlds would destroy themselves due to the imbalance of light and darkness.

So to safeguard the balance, several Unseen decided to merge themselves with one another to form more powerful beings. The result was Corpus, by-gone god of Shape and Form; and Capacity, by-gone god of Space. As their power grew, the fear of the Unseen also grew and led to a battle that resulted in the imprisonment of the by-gone gods in Netherine plane where they were sealed until Lazarus set them free in exchange of providing him an army.

Their time in Netherine drastically changed them; but the changed served their purpose. The vast lands of pure darkness allowed them to create amounting armies that were not only endless in number but are fairly easy to recreate. Now having a gateway to other planes, they sought to invade the Unseen plane using their Shadite Army.
