Yocuto

The Forgotten Times
In the ancient pantheon of the world, there was a god named Yocuto, whose name meant "Supreme" in the language of the gods. Yocuto was a malevolent deity, consumed with a desire to dominate and control all living beings, including other gods.

Yocuto was said to have been born from the shadows of the underworld, his form a twisted and malevolent amalgamation of various beasts and demons. From his very inception, he was filled with a deep-seated hatred for all life, and he took pleasure in causing pain and suffering wherever he went.

As Yocuto grew in power and influence, he began to gather followers to his cause. He promised them riches and power beyond their wildest dreams, and in exchange, they pledged their loyalty to him. Over time, Yocuto amassed a formidable army of warriors, warriors that were legends themselves.

Yocuto's ultimate goal was nothing less than total domination over life. He sought to enslave or destroy all other gods and their followers, so that he could reign supreme over the Stoneworks. To this end, he waged war against the other deities, unleashing his army of darkness upon them with terrible ferocity.

Despite his overwhelming power, Yocuto's ambitions were ultimately thwarted by a group of fighters who banded together to oppose him. These champions fought valiantly against Yocuto using their magic and strength to drive him out of the old world.

Yocuto was defeated, and his army of darkness scattered to the winds. But although he was vanquished.

There were always whispers over the wind, whispers that Yocuto might rise again, more powerful than ever, and seek to finish what he started:  Complete dominion over every creature that moved.

Yet, this was in the era of Mufan Duten, a time long lost to any historical records. This era is lost since all who once lived through it are gone.

There were always whispers of a time when Yocuto might rise again, more powerful than ever, and seek to finish what he started. Yet, as time passed, the old world disappeared and took upon a new name, and a new world called Rathnir was born.

Current Era
The Yocuto that had once been vanquished had returned, more powerful than ever before. It was said Yocuto had been reborn from the very darkness itself, a creature of malevolence and hatred.

Yocuto was no longer of supposedly divine flesh, and though he was now not of that shape in which had wrought so great a malignance, so that he could never again appear fair to the ocular perceivers denizens of Rathnir, yet his spirit arose out of the deep and passed as a shadow and an ebony wind over the sea, and came back to Rathnir, he wrought himself an incipient guise, an image of malevolence and abhorrence made visible; appeared afore all in thy chat

Yocuto had become now a sorcerer of dreadful potency, master of shadows and of phantoms, foul in sapience, cruel in vigor, misshaping what he physically contacted, convoluting what he ruled, lord of Rathnir; his ascendancy was torment, and all trembled at his presence.

Yocutoists will to dominate all Rathnir, caused most to despair. Yet, some resisted a last alliance of nations, mercenaries, and players, banded together to revolt. The Anti-Yocuto Coalition, they called themselves, marched to the unholy land of Yocuto and fought to rid Rathnir of this evil. But, unfortunately, the power that Yocuto had created could not be undone. The Coalition was crushed, there holy dead bodies littered the earth, and the last resistance was snuffed out unlike the strong flame it was.

Yocuto is very sagacious, more sagacious than all of rathnir, and he weighs all things to a nicety in the scales of this malignance. But the only measure that he keens is desire, desire for power; and so he judges all hearts. Into his heart the phrenic conception will not enter that any will reluct it. Yocuto now kills where he wishes and yet many resist.
