Tenebrous Apostate
(PRESTIGE CLASS)
No other vestige is quite like Tenebrous. The remnant of the divinity once possessed by Orcus, Tenebrous is perhaps the only vestige still worshiped in some places as a god, and so tightly bound to a living-if not mortal-being. This unique status grants Tenebrous the ability to manipulate the world in ways that other vestiges cannot. Some Tenebrous apostates revere Orcus, seeing Tenebrous as part of their sundered god and the seed from which he will one day sprout anew. Others see the corpulent fiend as the embodiment of Tenebrous's downfall. These followers believe that Tenebrous is a separate deity who attempted to manifest through Orcus, only to be laid low when the demon proved unworthy.
