The Stone Dripping Blood
Template:Breadcrumb Soma
Overview
Soma (Elftongue \ˈsoʊmə\ for body), also known as The Stone Dripping Blood, is named for its association with flesh and shell. Like all Eldritch Gods, lore about Soma is exceptionally rare and incomplete. The lore comes primarily from scholars who have studied the Obyrith and Eldritch Orisons. It is the God of the Neogi.
History
Soma, like all Eldritch Gods, is considered to be among the oldest Strange Gods. Soma appeared in the universe during The Shattering.
Description
Soma appears as a massive, headless crab-like creature with alternating rocky, chitinous plate and exposed muscle dripping blood.
Personality
Soma, like all Eldritch Gods, cannot be said to have a coherent personality. Its only discernable motivation seems to be an obsession with tactile sensation.
Orisons
Like all Eldritch Gods, it is not clear what draws Soma's attention to a Mortal to create an Orison. Its Orisons all develop skin aberrations, such as scales, plates, or leprosy.
