WILD DOG WATCHING

an enigmatic deity imprisoned in crystal and trapped within VAST\/TOWERING.

in lieu of being able to interact with the universe directly, communicates with other beings through ophanim carried by its messengers, and employs the aid of chosen to carry out its will across the cosmos.

Personality
despite its fearsome appearance, controversial origins and monumental power, wilddog is by far the most approachable deity in jamverse. though its tone may come off as solemn, it counts its chosen as genuine friends and confidants, and deigns to interact with all sapient beings as if they were equals

Story
after they finished setting up jamverse's warp system, wilddog's creators turned their attention to other potential uses of orisis, namely, its capacity to store accord in concentrations high enough to rival the bodies of gods, and sought to become one themselves. using the rest of the remaining orisis, they managed to craft a being capable of both sapience, and of wielding significant amounts of accord.

using the knowledge of spacial manipulation gained from work on the warp junctions, they then breached VAST\/TOWERING to harvest some of its raw accord for use in wilddog- and while its reaction with the orisis did indeed grant wilddog its own personal type of accord in the form of Catalyst energy, they soon found that it was unable to actually be separated from the rest of the raw material. now essentially a part of TVT, wilddog had no means of sustaining outside of it, or even of escaping the dimension on its own. from there, it would need to rely on those in normal reality to form a concept of it that was strong enough to be separated from TVT-- it would need a great number of people calling out to it with one unified goal and voice.

in its last summoning, those who called it sought to use it as a weapon to vanquish their enemies. wilddog did not take kindly to this, and instead turned on its summoners to wipe them out instead. following this and its subsequent return to its dormant state within TVT, wilddog's reputation fell to unrest; people began speaking of it as a wrathful entity whose name dare not be invoked. in short, there would never again be enough people in agreement about calling on it to successfully pull it from TVT.

though enraged at first, wilddog eventually came to accept this fate, and looked into other ways to interact with the universe. ultimately, this would come in the form of it reaching out to other like-minded individuals. it began to contact those who shared its interests or goals, and to offer them immortality and free use of its powers if they would become its allies. it also learned to see and speak through ophanim, and while these

currently, WILD_DOG WATCHING enjoys the company of a healthy number of these "chosen" individuals, and while having its own freedom is nice in prospect, it no longer wishes

Relations
wilddog is not generally well looked-upon. those who know the tales of its past summons and exploits

other deities question its nature and its motivations

HERETIC's sole focus is to find and eliminate wilddog, though wilddog itself is unaware

Io, though she has never met or spoken with wilddog, holds it in high regards, as its chosen have aided her on multiple accounts in the past

Skills/Abilities
in dormant state, WILD_DOG WATCHING wields theoretically boundless power

though it is not an 'innate' ability per se, wilddog's ophanim can also interface with the warp junctions due to their both operating on orisis
