Appearance:
This is Thanquol's most common form when he travels the mortal realm. Desguised as a plague monk, Thanquol is clad in robes and trinkets that denote him as a fallower of the Horned Rat.
In his true form, Thanquol stands roughly 15 feet tall and is covered in dense, black fur. Runes with a sickly green aura flash across his skin nigh constantly and his tail twitches erratically with excited power.
Personality: Thanquol is jovial, loving, and accepting beyond comprehension. However these are all belied by his enthusiasm for the destruction and rot of all living things. Thanquol is obsessed with spreading the Horned Rats love across the world, it just so happens that his form of love involves infecting others with terrible diseases and the natural rot of forests, cities, people, and most other things. All in all, he is kind of a creep but he means well.
Flaws:
-Where Thanquol is, disease will surely fallow. Even in his weakened form his power seeps through and begins to infect less hardy people quickly.
-Thanquol does not get along with other greater daemons and most holy beings. However he has enough restraint to remain civil as long as they don't insult the horned father.
-While accepted by modern times, most people like to keep him several arms lengths away. Partly from his smell, partly for his religion, and mostly because he's a rat.
-Thanquol doesn't tolerate torture of any kind and will bring swift death to any he believes to have partaken in the act. This will eventually get him banished from this plane one of these days.
-If a place has gone too long without decay, rot, or disease Thanquol will do anything in his power to introduce it as decay is a natural part of things and shouldn't be tampered with.
-Despises the undead, they mock the natural order of death and decay. It doesn't take much for him to find an excuse to end ones (un)life.
Alliance: The Horned Rat and his children, the blighted. However he is known to hire himself out for the right price.
