Canon:Nuitari
This article is based on material by: |
Nuitari, also known as the Devouring Dark, Nightreaver, and Ungod, represents the power of magic used for evil in the Dragonlance campaign setting. He is the patron of wizards who use magic for greed, revenge, hatred, and ambition. He uses the laws of High Sorcery, but only in an attempt to strengthen his own power. He was once representative of the godly force of ambition, but he left the Abyss and housed his essence in the black moon of Krynn. He moved to the black moon when it became apparent to him that magic needed to be brought under control, to prevent it from falling into the hands of wild mages. His focus now is on the Black Robed wizards, overseeing them as they go through their lives. Nuitari is the son of Takhisis and Sargonnas. He, for the most part, loathes his fellow Gods of Evil, and especially detests Takhisis for directing arcane power into the Gray Robed Knights of Takhisis. The only gods Nuitari regularly interacts with are his cousins Solinari and Lunitari, whom he is especially close to. They are always seen together at meetings among the gods and promote allegiance to magic first over the forces of good and evil and law and chaos. His celestial symbol is the black moon, Nuitari.[1]
