BELIEFS: Kali is an Great Old One, often cast as the mate to the Nameless One. She is the bringer of death and ecstatic destruction, drinker of blood. She has no purpose but to sever the mortal threads of all who cross her. WORSHIPPERS: Although the Nameless One's essence imbues Vampires with their dark powers, Kali created their form after herself. She has two cults centered around her, the Dakini cult and the Thugee cult, both committed to murder and sacrifice in her name. She is a staunch enemy and competitor of demons and as such often tries to recruit cultists to her cause. PRIMARY PLANET: Kali's primary center of worship is Crypt, but it is only recognized as her natural throne next to the Nameless One. She is much more prevalent on Raji, Sosel, and Perdow, where her minions can wreak havoc on the unsuspecting. Crypt doesn't have enough of a living populace to matter. AVATAR: Kali appears as a dark-skinned, eighteen-armed, fanged woman with long, ragged locks, fang-like teeth, lips dripping blood and claw-like hands with long nails. Her tongue protrudes. She wears a necklace of skulls, a belt of severed arms, earrings of children's corpses, and snakes as bracelets. |
