I love the softer personifications of the bishops in fan works, but I also think there needs to be more incredibly gorey and fucked up fan works of the bishops.

Like yes: Heket is depicted as a muscle mommy some of the time, but here she is eating her followers alive because she's the god of Famine, after all, and she is always starving.

Kallamar is sometimes seen as a germophobe and a coward but an intelligent doctor, but here he is spreading disease and poisoning people to maintain control and keep them dependent on him. And yes: he does let people die if they don't give him enough gold or gems.

Leshy is usually depicted as a strange blind man who's rather sweet, but here he is encouraging his followers to fight and kill each other, lighting fires in the woods around the cult, and inciting natural disasters. If the cult doesn't generate enough devotion, he won't help them.

Shamura's fan depictions are usually of their more intellectual and craftsman-focused side. So here they are bloody in war, defeating an army and burning a civilization. They are the god of knowledge and war, and they control both absolutely.

Narinder is the least softened, which is fair because he is the main antagonist, after all. But he usually has a soft side. So here is Narinder: god of Death. Waiting patiently for the violence, the chaos, the famine, the plague. He takes them all and makes them his own, twisting death into inevitable servitude for all. He kills indiscriminately, with no care for the old or the young. He kills for his own gain. He sacrifices upon the altar of death and drinks down screaming souls to increase his power. Here is inevitably. Here is certainty. Here is Death.

And then there is the worst of them, the nightmare. The apocalypse. The destroyer. The Lamb.
