Tzaraziko the Enigmatic was considered to be one of the most powerful Vernal Gods during the Vernal Wars, despite having a convoluted and unpredictable style of attack. In one fateful encounter with Illith, Tzaraziko pried out one of the Leviathan's eyes, which fell to the ground and was quickly immersed in a pool of clear liquid. Tzaraziko reached into this pool to retrieve the eye but the liquid dissolved the flesh from Her bones. Instead of giving up on retrieving the eye, Tzaraziko persisted, and her entire arm became black and skeletal, her fingers permanently clenched tightly around the Leviathan's eye.

Tzaraziko was capable of shapeshifting, though She almost always appeared as a female. After Her battle with Illith, She was unable to hide the appearance of Her arm, and in the final days of the Vernal Wars, She lost that arm completely to the Almighty Kethuru.

Lucidians and trill debate endlessly over which Edifice of Power gave Tzaraziko Her divinity - scholars believe it to have either been the Great Pyramid of Alin'dor or the Crystal Spire of Lancenti that raised Her. It is believed that the Hand of Tzaraziko is hidden in the sands of the Skarch Desert.

To imprison Kethuru and end the Vernal Wars, Tzaraziko sacrificed Herself, giving birth to Avechna the Avenger, and became the Seal of Chaos.
