The Destroyer is an allegedly immortal and invincible being that absorbs planets into its huge, shadowed maw. Its appearance is said to be that of "...a huge, red planet with a gigantic mouth several countries wide, stretching across it. The mouth has long, sharp teeth, and a tongue made of pure shadow." It is said to have no eyes, save that of a single giant eyeball in its core. The creature's ultimate goal is to devour the universe.
History[]
The first recorded sighting of the Destroyer was by a Helic who saw it flying over his spaceship and devouring a nearby star. The Helic wrote this about it:
"The devil flew over our ship today... I shall never forget how he looked down at me with that blind face... the abomination's mouth opened and I saw the hideous creatures insides. In it was an eyeball, a single eyeball, hovering on a throne so high it was impossible to see the top..."
Communicants[]
The Destroyer has had quite a few communicants over the years. Here are several recent ones:
