❧ Introduction

anded Sardonyx has long yearned for power and control, but only recently brought it to fruition. His followers are mostly underdeveloped or consumed by infection, losing their common sense and judgement. Sardonyx considers himself a bit of a savior for these lost lambs - With their combined resources and his guidance, they've been able to create a little settlement and acquire food. With his generosity, they've become more than the mindless slaves to consumption they would be. It's only natural that he comes first in all things.

Sardonyx's personal projects mainly focus on upkeep and construction of things in the underworld. He uses the brute strength of his followers to construct rudimentary homes for the community, slowly growing into a more traditional society. While he tells them they'll head to the surface eventually, it's barely even a plan at this point. He's unsure of the state of the surface and concerned for their ability to survive above, so he stays below and works on the infrastructure in their home.
