	The term "lucavi" is taken from Square-Enix's ''Final Fantasy Tactics'', as well as some of their names and concepts. Yothoth, specifically, is based on the Chtulu mythos of Lovecraft. The term 'char' is taken from Stephen King's ''Gunslinger'' series, and is used in relatively the same sense as those novels.

	~~There~~ are ~~beings that exist, from a time and place forgotten~~, that ~~slumber within~~ the ~~secret recesses~~ of ~~the plane~~. ~~Where these beings rest~~ is ~~unknown~~, ~~but some few know of their existence~~.		The slaad are an interesting breed of creatures, one that rarely interacts with the various peoples of Trinity. However, there are occasional slaad which venture forth from whatever madness they dwell in - Yothoth is one such slaad. A powerful member of his race, he stepped forward when the Lucavi were assembling themselves, and demanded that he be counted amongst them.

	Yothoth is ~~one such being~~. ~~How~~ he ~~came to be recognized as~~ a ~~Lucavi is unknown~~, ~~though he appeared amidst~~ the ~~Sect shortly after Adrammalech ascended - still sleeping, no less~~. However, ~~the being that refers to itself as an Old One speaks with the other Lucavi telepathically,~~ and ~~it keeps its strange form in check~~, ~~restricting itself to the geometric nature of the plane it is on while the Sect convenes.~~		Backed by worship of the slaad, Yothoth is the lord of chaos and madness, insanity and things that truly should not be. In this, he shares a certain amount of kinship with Teniel - they are both random mutations, the result of either mad wizardry or forces beyond their control. However, where Teniel represents nature and primal savagery, Yothoth is the representative of a more dignified type of insanity.

	~~Worship of~~ Yothoth is ~~restricted to those who can only be described as "insane," and an unusually high number of Force practitioners of~~ the ~~Trinity of Reality are counted among its worshippers. They speak~~ of a being which will destroy all life when the stars are right, which slumbers deep within the oceans of an unknown world. If followers of other Lucavi are made aware of the nature of Yothoth, they have never spoken of it.

	'~~''Prestige Classes:'''~~		Teniel's domain is nature; he vies with the Eidolons for general control of the natural world. However, even though he represents nature among the lucavi, he represents the twisted ways of the world, the conquering of reason by instinct, of culture by savagery.

When the gods passed from the world's attention, however, Sko'Veyux saw an opportunity, and seized it, claiming the devotion of her fellow chars as her own and thereby ascending to semi-deityhood. Rejected by the Saints, she joined the other Lucavi.

The term "lucavi" is taken from Square-Enix's ''Final Fantasy Tactics'', as well as some of their names and concepts.

=Overview=
The Sect of the Lucavi is a secretive organization, only loosely organized as a central religion; most followers worship a specific Lucavi, while only paying marginal homage to the others. It is believed that the Lucavi have more infernal and abyssal worshippers than mortals, though this is mere conjecture and cannot be confirmed. Where the Lucavi came from is also largely unknown - unlike the Saints or Eidolons, they sprang up slowly and independently.

'''Worship:''' Temples are rare and lavish, though this depends on the Lucavi; worship of the Lucavi is generally frowned upon, and local laws may impose imprisonment or even death on those practicing worship of the Lucavi. Worship of the Lucavi is highly ritualized and controlled. Each Lucavi has their own mode of worship. Lucavi are considered gods by those who worship them, and are understood to each represent a purpose, a particular world-view.
