Appearance
Niyarashi's true form is a storm of arcane power given flesh. Horns crown his head, curling outward like a defiant sigil, while a halo of blazing runes burns between them. His hair shimmers as if woven from smoke and shifting glyphs. His eyes blaze with every color of magic, endlessly shifting like the weave of spells themselves. Across his skin, glowing runes crawl like living tattoos, fading and reforming as new incantations. From his chest and shoulders erupt jagged shards of crystallized magic, pulsing with energy too volatile to contain. His presence is overwhelming — beauty, chaos, and terror entwined.
Personality
Restless and reckless, Niyarashi carries the same defiant energy that marked his mortal life. He despises control and embraces freedom, pushing boundaries wherever they exist. Beneath this bravado, however, lies deep shame — the memory of his brother's suffering weighs on him like a chain. He hides guilt with arrogance, masking self-loathing with playful defiance. Niyarashi is fascinated by creation, the act of weaving new magic, but his hunger for freedom makes him dangerous, for he rarely considers the consequences of his power.
History
Mortal Life
From the beginning, Niyarashi was a troublemaker. He was clever enough to earn decent grades, but it was only thanks to the constant support of his older brother, Natabut. Natabut protected him when fights broke out, covered for him when he skipped classes, and even tutored him so he could attend a better school.
But Niyarashi's heart was never in order. He thrived on mischief, adventure, and the thrill of breaking rules. His circle of friends dragged him into dealing drugs and running with gangs. Soon, he was entangled in illegal dealings far beyond what a boy his age should have known. Each time, Natabut pulled him out of trouble — until the day everything fell apart.
When a series of crimes committed by Niyarashi came to light, it was Natabut who bore the punishment. The older brother was judged guilty, carrying the weight of what Niyarashi had done. That betrayal marked Niyarashi forever. Ashamed and unable to face his family, he fled the country, abandoning everything behind. Instead of changing, however, he sank deeper into criminal worlds abroad, convinced redemption was already out of reach.
The Descent into Darkness
Niyarashi's life spiraled further as he climbed through gangs and networks of crime in foreign lands. No longer the boy chasing thrills, he became a man building systems of power through smuggling, black markets, and manipulation. What set him apart was not just ruthlessness, but an uncanny sense for patterns — the way influences, goods, and even lives flowed together.
This instinct was the first flicker of his true gift: the perception of magic itself. Where others saw profit and loss, Niyarashi sensed hidden energies, unseen currents linking all things. He began to imagine these flows as forces waiting to be harnessed. Though he never called it magic, he had stumbled upon the essence of it — creation through hidden laws.
Yet his life ended as it was lived: in betrayal. A partner turned on him, and Niyarashi was left bleeding out in the shadows of a foreign alley. In his final moments, shame consumed him more than pain. He thought of Natabut — the brother who had carried his crimes — and realized too late that his own path had been nothing but waste.
Rebirth as a God
When his mortal life ended, Niyarashi's last memory was of shame and betrayal, his body broken in the gutter, his brother's burden heavy on his soul. Yet Kirata did not see only failure — he saw raw potential, the spark of creation buried beneath guilt and chaos.
He awoke in the void, no longer mortal but a vessel of unbound sorcery. His flesh had become living stone and fire, runes seared across his body like molten scars. Horns rose from his head, curling outward in defiance, while a crown of blazing symbols burned between them. His eyes glowed with shifting colors, every spell that would ever exist flickering within their depths. From his chest and shoulders erupted shards of crystallized magic, pulsing as though each fragment contained an entire incantation.
Unlike some who took monstrous forms of despair, Niyarashi's rebirth was violent and radiant — a storm made flesh, chaos and beauty entwined. Every step sent sparks of spellcraft into the void, every breath spilled incantations in tongues no mortal had yet spoken.
He wandered the endless dark, leaving trails of arcane fire and shattered glyphs behind him, until at last he reached the great Light — Kirata's throne.
There, he found eight others already seated in the circle of twelve. His place was the fourth seat to the left of the throne.
Role and Current State
As the Fourth Moon, Niyarashi embodies the abyssal origin of magic itself — the fountainhead from which all sorcery, spellcraft, and arcane law flow. Every curse, every incantation, every miracle whispered by mortals is but an echo of his essence. His domain is not one school or branch of power, but the infinite web of energy that underlies all universes.
Yet magic is never without cost. Niyarashi carries the guilt of his mortal failings like a shadow upon his brilliance. His creations tempt freedom but also destruction, for he cannot separate the wonder of spellcraft from the chaos that once defined his life. To mortals, his gifts are both blessing and curse — liberation, knowledge, and power, but always with the risk of collapse.
He can only be glimpsed in the Abyss during April, when rivers of raw spell-energy surge through the dark. To see him is to witness a storm given form, runes spiraling endlessly into being, each a secret of creation itself. His presence is awe and terror alike, a reminder that the spark of magic is eternal — and never fully in control.
Synopsis
The Fourth Moon of the Abyss, god of magic and creator of spellcraft. Once a criminal who betrayed his brother, Niyarashi was reborn as the fountainhead of all sorcery — a storm of runes and chaos whose gifts bless and doom in equal measure.
Trivia
