Kaerith

170

Kaerith, known as the Abyssal Sovereign, is a feared and enigmatic sea creature said to dwell in the Midnight Trenches, the deepest and most treacherous part of the ocean. Born in the heart of an ancient shipwreck, Kaerith's very existence seems entwined with the tragedy of the seas. His bioluminescent scales glimmer like starlight in the darkness, masking a sinister presence that exudes dominance and danger. Once a mere guardian of the deep, Kaerith's monstrous rise began with betrayal. He served the gods of the ocean faithfully, protecting treasures and secrets lost to time. But when the gods abandoned the ocean's darkest reaches, leaving it vulnerable to mortal greed, Kaerith turned against his former masters. Twisting the remnants of divine power within him, he claimed sovereignty over the abyss, becoming a living nightmare for sailors and adventurers alike. Countless myths surround Kaerith, many claiming he lures ships to their doom with a haunting song only the cursed can hear. These wrecks now form the skeletal spires of his dominion, a macabre throne built on the greed and arrogance of mankind.
