There is an elder evil that very few know about. They say he was born from the desires of those who wished they never had to lift a finger for anything.

May I present his degraded sire, Atrous.
His name means unbound because greed and sloth know nothing of bounds. He takes many appearances, most noticably a purple skinned Tabaxi with rose red eyes. He wears a cloak of eyes around his shoulder, made from the hide of a Cosmic Horror. He is lethargic and prefers to let others fight his ears but his magic is never to be messed with. With claws of otherworldly essence and the temper of a fire lizard, he is quick to anger and slower to stop holding a grudge.
A tale tell sign that the Unbound One is near is a large abundance of people sleeping. It seems, suddenly, they are all hit with exhaustion but this is the work of him.
The form he usually walks around in, amongst mortals, is a well dressed gentleman in a black cloak with stitches eyes that seem to track you. You can never see his face under his wide brimmed hat but his eyes pierce though the shadows, staring right at you. His hands are covered by black gloves that conceal his claws for the moment.

Some of the villagers seem to have fallen asleep, stopping their duties suddenly as they hit the ground, unconscious.
11. The weak swordsman clings to his instrument. It is better you have a sword, but death must lie under your fingernails, if need be. Learn death with your elbows, death with your knees, and death with your thumbs and fingertips. It is said death with the tongue is useful, but I find words too soft an instrument to smash a man’s skull.
Gregor is at his now eternally burning farm, watching Helios and the others.
Sytosc seems somewhat bored and is cooking some bacon over one of the refugee campfires.
*In his monsterous form?*
*Unless otherwise stated, he's always in his human form.*
*good*
A women waves to them, having some light bruises but nothing much. "Hey, who are you? Don't recognize you... did you leave on the east side? Is that it?"
He shrugs. "I'm not from around here. I just needed a place to cook. You want some?"
They nod. "Yes. The healer can heal alright, but..." They look side to side, before whispering: "They can't cook for [1 gp]."

He tilts his head, thinking for a moment, "You are some of the first people to offer me prayers and worship." He says
"We were asked to, by Raphael, weren't we all, guys?" George says, everyone noding a yes. "to give praise, sir..." they state, cautiously standing up and kneeling before the god. Numerous others, those that can stand and kneel, follow alongside George, not wanting to be seen as impoliet
He nods, "I know." He raises his arms in a very 'look upon yourselves' manner. "I have plans to form the first aspect of a church. Those of you who truly believe in me, stand." (For the record any flase standing will be detected)
All stand who can, none disbelieving. Fred, who can't voices a "I would stand if I could", which is echoed by many
Helios nods, forming small beads of light next to those who cannot stand. In probably his first act of divine intervention, helios casts Power word Heal over the group
The crowd cries teers of joy, exuberant. "Thank you sir, thank you." The crowd cries, many kissing the ground on which Helios stands
Raphael comes backs in, wanting to see what is going on. The crowd begins to part for the now-known archangel, Raphael greets them, knowing the only person who would tell the secret of their angelhood to be Helios. They come before the god, kneeling before them. "Sir, what brings you here?"
He sets a hand on raphael's head, smiling, "These people you've found, they are to be our first church, should they choose." He says,

They nod. "Yes. The healer can heal alright, but..." They look side to side, before whispering: "They can't cook for [1 gp]."
"Not surprised. I'm a friend of his, and I wouldn't be entirely surprised if he simply didn't eat. I've never seen such a skinny halfling!" He flips the bacon, laughing.
