Greater Entities - Ossuary, the Lord Collector

Ossuary was not always a demon, let alone a lord. Known by a different, insignificantname, he was once an equally insignificant mortal. Spineless by nature or upbringing,as a child and a young man he was subjected to violence that broke his spirit just asoften as it broke his bones. One time, however, that primordial reptile nestling in thedepths of the human brain opted for survival, prompting him to swing wildly at oneof his tormentors. The fist connected, a tooth was knocked loose, there was blood,Consequently beaten into a pulp, the young man paid no mind. It was as if a key hadfit into a lock: he was capable of violence. He did not need to be skilled in it – just letthe primordial reptile take control. And he did – more and more, he did: breakingteeth, biting off bits of flesh, gouging eyes, until his reputation as a madman earnedhim respite. They finally left him alone, for he would not turn violent unlessprovoked.

Too late. He now had the taste for it – wanted, no, needed to be provoked, to let thereptile take over and collect his trophy. He had kept it all: the teeth, the flesh, therare eye, but everything that was not bone eventually spoiled. Still, he had his teeth.But teeth were small, so very small… As no one would draw the reptile out oncemore, he had to let it out of his own volition.

Then, another miracle: for the reptile was cunning and eclectic, not content simplywith violence. Murder offered greater pleasure – and a better opportunity to collectlarger trophies. With every new sin, every new bone added to the collection, yetanother key turned in the locks of Hell.

Upon his death, the Pit received the former man who would be Ossuary with openarms. Inside the infernal crucible, his trophies were molded into an appropriate formfor this exquisite sinner. He did not disappoint: delighted at the Hellish Plains, whereviolence reigned unchecked, there were all sorts of new trophies to collect and addto his form: spines, horns, wings… and power.
