The spawns of Rovagug are great

Look at these silly litol beasts of absolute death and destruction

One even shed its shell which became a capitol building for a country

An episode of my friends and I going through a tabletop Pathfinder adventure called "Reign of Winter". Stasik (my husband) is the Rovagug's antipaladin, who became undead in the service of Rasputin, and the cat Attius (me) keeps an eye on him as Rovagug's agent and makes silly jokes.

Day 24 - Corruption

Ever since being taken from her home land on a distant planet & brought to the outer planes, Zelrae has felt a growing darkness in her soul, as if some kind of ancient looming evil was beginning to take control of her and threatening her mind.

Rovagug, The Rough Beast, The Great Destroyer, Enemy of the Gods, The Unmaker, The Worldbreaker. all titles of Pathfinder's Chaotic Evil deity of wrath, disaster, and destruction.

basically just his front end; he was tricky to say the least.

one of the first beings in this iteration of reality, Rovagug, as the mightiest of qlippoth lords, gnawed his way from the Abyss into the Material Plane after Asmodeus murdered his brother Ihys and devoured the world where it took place.

after destroying countless worlds after, Sarenrae led a collection of gods (many now dead and forgotten) to battle and eventually imprison Rovagug within Golarion's core in a god-made demi-plane known as the Dead Vault.

even while he slumbers and his cage weakens, he has released a dozen of his spawn, including the infamous herald the Tarrasque.

Chainsaw Awesome -- Pathfinder Combat Feat

In all of time & space, there exists no single finer instrument of total destruction.

Brought to you absolutely free to enjoy, to test & to share – as always – by the fine folks of my Patreon.

Benefit: You gain a chainsaw at no material cost to you. This chainsaw is appropriate to your size-category or to the size-category of one of your identities (if you possess the Ultimate Supernatural Evil … Sealed in a Mask feat, for example). If your chainsaw is ever lost, damaged or destroyed, it returns to you – restored to full hit points – the next time you wake. This weapon cannot be activated, wielded, operated or otherwise used by any other creature. This weapon is treated as timeworn and cannot be recharged; it begins play with only a single charge.

If your single charge is ever lost, it returns to your chainsaw after 30 days or the next time you gain a level, whichever comes first.

You may upgrade your chainsaw as you see fit: by expending 300 gold to make it masterwork and then enchanting it, for example, or by expending 3,000 gold to have it assembled of adamantine.

Note that this feat does not grant you proficiency with your chainsaw; such an ability must be gained via use of the Exotic Weapon Proficiency feat.

You may always choose to attempt to activate your chainsaw as a full-round action rather than as a standard action. If you choose to do so, activating your chainsaw does not cost a charge. When you attempt this action, roll 1d6: your chainsaw is successfully activated -- without the cost of a charge -- on a result of 5 or higher. For each unsuccessful attempt you have made to activate your chainsaw in this way within the last minute, you receive a +1 on your roll.

In addition, you may always choose to expend a single mote of time, a single daily use of your Electrical Touch, a single daily use of your touch of corruption or a single point from your mask’s Terror Pool (if you possess any of those abilities) to use 1 fewer charge than normal when activating your chainsaw (minimum 0 charges), as long as the weapon has enough charges remaining to be activated at least once.

Special: You may freely retrain this feat whenever you gain a new level.

Campaign Note: Within the Eve of Dreams & the AWAKE setting, this ability is popular among insane, modern-era servants of Rovagug ... as well as amongst those brave soldiers of humanity who hunt such blood-soaked, nihilistic beasts.
