Nerull is the Flan god of death, darkness, murder, and the underworld, worshiped on countless worlds. He is known as the Reaper, the Foe of All Good, the Hater of Life, and the Bringer of Darkness.
Nerull dwells in Carceri, either in its outermost layer or its innermost. His realm there is Necromanteion. Unlike most inhabitants of the Red Prison, Nerull wasn't banished to Carceri - he lives there because he likes it.
Description
Nerull is usually seen as a robed skeleton, carrying a scythe called "Lifecutter". His alignment is Neutral Evil, and his clerics are feared throughout the lands as cold, calculating murderers. Nerull is the patron deity of those who seek the greatest evil for their own enjoyment or gain. Among the Flan, he is sometimes considered to be the god of winter.
Other aspects
Among the Bakluni, Nerull is known as Tharoth the Reaper. This is unofficial Oerth Journal material.
