Amekhar, God of Hunger
The world is a feast for the body, mind, and soul; serve Us, and we shall share its delightful bounties with you.
Amekhar is a creature driven by its desires. It wants things, and would consume the world whole if it were allowed to run rampant. It desires the physical sensations of the flesh, the taste of fine food and drink, tender caresses and the carnal experiences of the body, the joy of seeing a vault overflowing with treasures, the sweet feeling of knowing that you are better than everyone around you. It desires everything, and it will promise you oh so much if you will help it gets what it wants.
