Cire
- Cire is a Deity of Hollow
According to the elder gods, the force of Chaos had already existed for a long time before Cire reached sentience. However, Cire's emergence marked a turning point as chaos took on a sentient form. Cire is the God/Goddess of chaos and change. They are without a defined form, race, or gender. They enjoy swapping race, form, and gender at a moment's notice, as it is the very personification of chaos. As such, there are numerous depictions of Cire in the likeness of man, beast and even objects.
Cire has only one desire: the destruction of reality itself. If they succeed, every plane of existence would succumb to chaos and revert into a mass of random, ever-changing forces and energy. However, their very nature is self-destructive. If reality is destroyed, it would eventually lead to the destruction of conscious thought, including Cire itself. Cire's followers are often unhinged or possess ill will towards the world. Most are happy to surrender themselves to the cause of total and complete obliteration at Cire's whim. They have enormous power as the embodiment of change and evolution. The tiny bit of uncertainty placed into the start of the world sparked sentience and ran amok, a threat to all creation. Cire can manipulate and corrupt mortals with strange, chaotic powers that mutate the body and destroy the mind, leaving a soldier of chaos willing to annihilate anything on command.
They have no favorite followers, beyond the most mad, and often become bored with old ones, seeking new thrills and new chances for chaos to reign with new individuals. However, due to Cire's chaotic nature and differing agendas and aspects, it falls into conflict with itself. This often sees its followers fighting each other as much as they combat the forces of order.
