#Lore24 Under the Cairne's Shadow #Creature24 Silfax

 Silfax is a malevolent and maniacal entity that lives deep within Sorgash Loch  in the cavern Stillnocht city.  Generations ago Silfax attempted to take control of the cavern with infernal assistance but was thwarted and in the ensuing conflict Silfax was drown in the lake.  Silfax was a skilled Thuamaturge who summoned and controlled infernal creatures to enact his bidding.  Balafon was his most prized servant, a powerful demon that Silfax bond to his service so long as his soul remained intact.  Silfax transformed Balafon into a black owl the form in which it remains to this day.

Silfax's vengeful spirit now clings to his drowned body plotting and scheming in the Deep at the bottom of the lake. Radiation from veins of minerals tied to other realms have given him the power to preserve his connection to the material realm and enabled him to maintain his contract with Balafon. The demon resides in dark caves on the outskirts of Stillnocht and can be seen on occasion flying silently over the lake scanning the deep for his former master.

1. Infernal Manipulation: Silfax retains his mastery over infernal magic, allowing him to summon and control demonic entities to do his bidding. He can command these creatures to carry out acts of destruction or to serve as his minions in his quest for vengeance.
2. Corruption Aura: Silfax emanates a corrupting aura that taints the land and waters surrounding Sorgash Loch, turning once vibrant lifeforms into twisted and malevolent beings loyal to his cause. Those who venture too close risk being consumed by darkness and madness.
3. Spectral Influence: Silfax's vengeful spirit has the ability to influence the minds of those susceptible to his dark whispers. He can sow seeds of doubt, fear, and paranoia, turning allies against each other and weakening the resolve of his enemies.
4. Elemental Mastery: Through his connection to the veins of minerals tied to other realms, Silfax has gained control over elemental forces. He can manipulate water, earth, and air to create devastating storms, floods, and earthquakes, wreaking havoc upon his enemies.
5. Soul Corruption: Silfax can corrupt and devour the souls of those who fall under his influence, adding their essence to his own and bolstering his power. He feeds on the fear and despair of his victims, growing stronger with each soul he claims.
6. Phantom Form: Silfax can assume a ghostly form, allowing him to pass through solid objects and move swiftly through the depths of Sorgash Loch unseen. In this form, he is nearly impossible to detect and can appear and disappear at will, making him a formidable foe to confront.
