Dogma[]
For those fools who would worship such a thing, they have goals of mad destruction. Some believe the destruction can be controlled, that its fell power can be directed against their enemies, but in the end they all become raving lunatics whose want for ruin spreads to anything they see.
Clergy and Temples[]
Due to its maddening nature, Ghora-Fatum is not worshiped beyond mad cults and sick individuals in privacy. Temples are not tolerated in the presence of Gokia.
Pantheon[]
Ghora-Fatum is a part of the gokiburi pantheon.
