The form of the cougar.*** Naaz is a wholly malevolent and brutal deity that distances himself from mere mortals, preferring to reign over his followers from afar. He savors the terror he instills in others and the hatred that forms in mortals' hearts, utilizing this strife to gain greater control over the Realm. He embodies the principles of ambition and control and believes that the strong had not only the right, but the duty, to rule over the weak. He favors those with drive and courage, often aiding those who seek to establish order or conquer new territories. Of all the dark deities in Tovangar, Naaz is the most publicly "acceptable," in an odd way. Some of the most ambitious consider him to be more reasonable and less instinctual than Chindi or the Anaye. > [!dm] > ### Institutions > Naaz's church obeys a strict hierarchy extending from the god's most powerful worshipers to his weakest ones, with the god himself the lord of everything they do. Though worshipers come from every station in life, they all know to whom they owe their blessings, ready to turn it over to the Overlord at any time. His Clerics are chosen as enforcers, often for their martial prowess, and can be recognized by a liontooth necklace hung around their necks. > > ### Notes > [Additional DM-only information]
