One of the most ancient and powerful entities in the multiverse, the Elder God Morgfyre is known as He Who Is Legion, the Devourer of Gods, and simply Legion.
During the Great Exodus of the Elder Gods from Lusternia millennia ago, Morgfyre conquered the seething horrors and fathomless creatures of the Void - nearly godlike in their own right. In a time when death herself had abandoned the Gods and left them helpless and scattered, Morgfyre drank of the spark of Creation within the shattered and ruined forms of His malevolent enemies, seizing their consciousness and spirit for Himself and feeding His immense and waxing strength. What dark places the Elder God tread during the long exile remain a mystery, but so changed is He that even the other Gods do not recognize what He has become.
In the modern epoch, Morgfyre is worshiped by cults and secretive sects across the lands, who revere His strength and rebirth in the burning forge of His exile. It is whispered in lore and legend that the God speaks not with His own voice, but with the shifting voices of His devoured enemies - yet rarely does Morgfyre's hand directly influence events, instead working subtly through His mortal servitors and agents. He is known to favour the Ouroborian Priesthood, whose seat of power rests within the tainted capital city of Magnagora, and who preach that humanity is served through the ever-changing process of rebirth and renewal. Dissolution and destruction, they teach, are the necessary tools of the greater transformation that must inevitably follow in their wake, and must be embraced as an equal part of that relentless cycle.
History and Facts
Morgfyre was once the strategist leader of the cadre known as "The Golden Ones", fighting alongside his other cadre members some being Terentia, Hajamin and Krokano. He was known as one of the best strategists of the Gods, among others such as Kalikai. He was later discovered to be compromised as having joined Fain as one of the Twelve Traitors. Morgfyre would assist the Traitors with tactical planning to further their goals. He was later banished alongside Fain to the void for his crimes.
Morgfyre first returned to the First World hidden behind a powerful illusion of that of Hajamin, the Golden Lord by the powerful artifact known as the "Eye of Dynara". Having consumed Hajamin in the void Morgfyre attempted to play the part of the Golden Lord but soon after some odd behavior and then the attack on Lyreth it was revealed he was an imposter. By the collective of all the Elder Gods and the people of the Basin he was later unmasked as they retrieved the powerful artifact from his temple.
Morgfyre is known as "the Legion" from all the god-like creatures and Gods he has consumed. He calls the many voices that he claims as nightmares simple "Legion". He is even known to speak in the many voices of these victims. He teaches his agents about the necessity of change and that everyone has an Inner hunger and that this hunger must be listened to, for one is required to consume in order to grow stronger.
Morgfyre has changed much in appearance, this occurring from how many entities he has consumed, to the point that he is unrecognizable. Monstrous in appearance Morgfyre's true form lies deep beneath the First World, far under the sea of despair; he currently walks around in the form of a fleeting illusion.
Allying with Magnagora, Morgfyre enjoys playing behind the scenes, rarely if at all putting his own hand into matters. He usually vies with Fain over control and power in Magnagora, contesting with his old master over who will rule.
