Nephelleth's visage is a haunting ancient creature, a deity who has witnessed epochs pass within the murky silence of the ocean's deepest trenches. Her skin mimics the texture of the ocean floor, and her eyes are like the abyss—dark and fathomless. Her elongated form is crowned with spined tendrils that sway with the ocean's unseen currents, and her voice is the subtle lull of the tides, speaking in tones only the most attuned can decipher.

It is whispered that she was birthed by the sea's first and darkest storm, a tempest that raged before the light of the sun and moon graced the world. She is the keeper of secrets that were old when the world was young, and her knowledge is as vast as the waters she calls home.

Nephelleth's followers are those who feel the pull of the deep and the call of the unknown. Mariners who respect the sea's treacherous beauty, sages seeking ancient truths, and collectors of forgotten lore all revere her. Her most devoted servants are the Voices of the Abyss, oracles who can divine the future by interpreting the whispers carried by the waves.

Nephelleth is tied to the legendary event known as the Drowning of the Armada. An armada of the most advanced warships from a long-lost civilization once sought to conquer Gigornia. As they approached the shores, ready to claim the land for themselves, Nephelleth stirred from her Abyssal Throne. With but a whisper, she summoned a calamity from the depths, a maelstrom that swallowed the fleet whole, leaving no trace behind.
