Though he almost always takes the form of a unusually pale-skinned man with tendril-like hair, Emrul is, in reality, a amorphous mass of black tar akin to a octopus without any eyes. While powerful in his own right and on par with the other chief gods, he lacks the same power and experience the elder gods do - a point that ruffles his feathers and that he aims to someday change.
Unlike any of the elder gods though, Emrul has taken a strong stance in the world of Aanrah, and involved and attached himself on a much deeper level than the elder gods are willing to. Since he world’s beginning, Emrul has orchestrated and managed what would come to be known as magic, becoming its chief ‘writer’ and controller. He pushed for such powers to stay among the gods or, at best, be given in very limited, controlled, and known fashions and amounts to other non-divine beings. And this was, for a time, how it went - and he had nobody to blame but himself for it ever changing.
(Cont. under the cut)
His deal with Szaifudrus would eventually destroy the immaculate control he’d kept over magic for millennia, and Yalidil Rana’s interference in tying the rest of it to the moon of Baza finalized that it was truly and utterly now out of Emrul’s hands. Since magic has become wildly available to anyone and everyone, Emrul’s followers have absolutely boomed - which while the power and attention was what Emrul sought, there is no doubt about how bitter he is about the situation.
Emrul’s followers consist almost entirely of magic-users, as one might expect. Almost every mage guild or collage has a shrine dedicated to him, and most wizards might have a personal one at home as well. While his responses are incredibly impersonal and detached, he is known for being a responsive god to prayers and interaction. He is known for having studies and towers on the material plane one might be able to find him at, including one in the northern region of the continent Draakrahlr.
Emrul is a somewhat irritable and vindictive god, and many who have had the misfortune of drawing his attention in some fashion, good or bad, often find themselves at the short end of the stick if they spend too much time in proximity to him. He is known for his aggressively selfish actions among longer-lived beings, and though many wizarding locations may worship him, the wisest warn of what dangers lie in dealing with him closely.
Those foolish enough are known to seek Emrul beyond his stance in the material world, and seek his power and understanding of reality beyond the current one. While he is much easier to get into contact than most of the other truly Outsider deities, like Kht’oth and Artitengh, Emrul is also known for being much more likely to drive a person directly into insanity just for asking.

Emrul, the 'True' god of Magic, Spells, Arcane Knowledge, & Mages. He is the creator of the system in which magic works off of on Aanrah, which originally prevented learned magic from being widely available. Since his slip up with a mortal king that caused what is known as 'mortal magic' to be available to anyone, Emrul has reluctantly stepped up in trying to choral mortalkind into you know. Not destroying themselves or the gods.
He's not doing a great job.
While he normally appears as a not-quite-correct humanoid, his 'true form' as a n'ghftu is a writhing mass of darkness and devoured stars.
