Zilchus is the brother of Kurell and husband of Sotillion (and thus related by marriage to Procan, Merikka, and the Velaeri). He is a staunch ally of Rao. He acts as a dealmaker between deities.

Realm

Zilchus' realm is the Marketplace Eternal. He shares this domain with several mercantile deities from other worlds, all of them combining their assets for mutual benefit. The realm is a vast bazaar run by the souls who held one of these gods as their primary patron in life, continuing their occupations in the hereafter. Zilchus' quarter of the Marketplace Eternal is called the Seat of Luxury.
