Description
Xorlog is a god of war so he is constantly in the mood for battle. He is aggressive, easily agitated, and full of rage. He often appears as a giant warrior, covered in bloody plate mail, with an even bloodier Greataxe at his side.

He was been sowing the seeds of war throughout history. He is often on every battlefield in some way, opposing Gallant at almost every turn. He was totally for the Divine Cataclysm, but upset the event didn’t repeat during the end of the Era of Magic.

Xorlog hasn’t had any serious relationship with any of the deities of the Higher Planes. He has butt heads with Gallant and Aubade, sometimes fighting with them directly. He has allied himself with various members of the Nether Planes but only temporarily.
