Balor, God of Destruction and Chaos.

Balor brings chaos where Phaedra brings law. He destroys where Phaedra creates.

Balor is almost always seen as an evil god bringing wanton destruction and chaos to the world. Many evil men and demi-humans offer prayers to him.

Balor is also held responsible for the creation of the thirteen dragons that terrorised the world.

Just as Orloth is sometimes considered an evil force, Balor is thought to be a force for good by some scholars. They believe that Chaos brings about change and advancement of society.

 

Avatars.

Balor, is the god of destruction and chaos. He is the opposite of Gwrien who is a force for creation and stability, no one really knows the relationship between the two gods.

  • The Storm - The weather is one of the most powerful and chaotic forces of the world. In this vision, the land is wracked by fierce winds and torrential rain. The Storm is a powerful force of chaos and heralds a time of great anarchy and upheaval in the future. The storm itself is not evil, and similarly the results of the coming anarchy may be for good or evil.
  • The Demon - Demons are the spawn of Balor, living in the void where nothing else can exist. They are the absence of life and all things related to Gwrien. The Demon is a potent vision of evil, showing that the hand of Balor is involved with the viewer's interests.
  • Lightning - A bolt of lightning flashes from the sky, hitting some object or person and destroying it utterly. Lightning is a powerful symbol of destruction. Unlike the Orlothian Death, lightning symbolises that the death will occur in a violent manner.
