Lodril's myths (canon)

[kalidor]

Hi everyone,

Does anyone know  Lodril's myths and where to find them? Not the name only but the story too. One of my players want to become a Heroe of the cult

 

Thanks everyone.

 

 

[Yelm's Light]

There's a cult description including mythology in the Cult Compendium, pp. 237-240.  I'm not sure about other sources.

There's a fair bit in the Glorious ReAscent of Yelm.

The ViSaruDaran and BesedEria story in the Entekosiad is roughly the Lodril and Oria story with different names. Lodril seeks a wife, visions lead him to the underworld, to the house of DeshKorgas the Monster Man, and his wife Annara Gor. 

DeshKorgos defeats him at ouranekki many times, wagering a little power each time, until Lodril is just a powerless slave. Lodril seduces Annara Gor with his warmth, which heals her. Their child is Veskerele. She tells Lodril the secret -to defeat DeshKorgas, heal him, for he cannot be where compassion is. 

So he is no longer the ruler,  now Lodril is the ruler. he makes Veskerele the ruler of the second hell. Lodril goes into the third hell, frees the three sisters he finds there (Dendara, Gorgorma, Oria), and marries Oria, fathers ten sons, and they rule the third hell together. Monster Man is locked up in the fourth hell with all the other wicked evil gods.

There was an excellent writeup in White Wolf, with lots of interesting subcults. I particularly liked Monster Man's smouldering rebellion.

That's the one that was included in the Cults Compendium book.
