The dark plea, an entity of old, the most vile and liar tongue know to the multiverse it self. It’s the kind of being who nevers puts it self at risk, never faces openly since after all its easier to outwit your enemy, and more fun, than rather just a plain kill. This nameless enemy of all, has claimed being the author of the first whispers of evil to those celestial beings who first fought the havens and fall to a place that later will become known as “hell”. Whether this claim is true Asmodeus himself has mentioned a little about him, and almost always with a tone of grudge. As such sages guarantee that the dark plea is at least as old as Lucifer, first rule of the nine hells a now deposed power who waits a chance to reclaim his turf. The dark plea is virtually never seen unless he so wants, and is never seen wearing any obvious weapon or armor, neither any spell component at hand as to suspect, you could say that this humanoid, wearing dark clothes and hiding his features with some sort of cloak doesn’t look like a threat at all, he isn’t big or muscular, and all its achievements are accomplished with words, since telepathy just doesn’t let him do as he pleases … and to let him speak it’s the most dangerous mistake to commit. In its godly aspect, the Dark Plea is chaotic evil and a lesser deity which suits him well as he doesn’t like the attention at all, he works best in the shadow, divinity just happens to stumble upon him. Among his worshippers some also refer to it as the Mindbane, Dreamstalker, or Nightbirth. The Dark Plea is the patron of those who seek destruction or the dominion of others through manipulative dreams of atrocity. It is associated with the domains of Death, Psychic, and Nightmare. Its symbol is a tongue of black flame, and its worshippers depict it as a gruesome silhouette of terror, or alternatively, a tongue of black flame burning on a greatsword, which is its favored weapon.

COMBAT No know record of combat is easily come to be known from any encounter with the dark plea, however if it comes to that any sort of ambush is to be expected, whether is just hiding in some shadow or his liberal use of enchantment abilities you will almost always see him alone and using any disguise as not to be recognized at all. Encounters with the dark plea usually happen without knowing his presence at all and when known, well its too late Psychic Domain Granted Power: Gain +2 bonus to save DCs for all Psychic domain spells.

Dark Whispers [Vile] By whispering foul utterances in the Dark Speech, you can drive your enemies insane. Prerequisite: Dark Speech. Benefit: In addition to the basic uses of the Dark Speech, you can whisper words of incredible wickedness to form grotesque visions in the minds of those who hear you. All living creatures within a 30-foot radius that can hear your words must make Will saves (DC 10 + 1/2 your character level + your Cha modifier). On a failure, creatures with fewer Hit Dice than you are staggered for 1d10 rounds; those with as many or more Hit Dice are confused for 1 round. This is a mind-affecting, supernatural effect. Whenever you use Dark Speech in this manner, you take 1 point of Charisma damage. Special: You gain a +2 circumstance bonus on saving throws made when someone uses the Dark Speech against you. This bonus stacks with the +4 circumstance bonus from Dark Speech. Special: If you cannot take ability damage, you cannot select this feat.
