Neutral Evil
The Cryptlord is the evil God of Death. Where the OlderSister offers gentle encouragement, the Cryptlord uses death for power, for gain, and for punishment. While few evil gods are beloved by the people, all races fear and loathe the Cryptlord and any who would worship him.
Priests of the Cryptlord are attacked on sight, or as soon as they are recognized. Even other evil priesthoods will not tolerate the Death Priests. Priests of the Older Sister will attack them in preference to all other foes. The reason for this is due in large part to the horrific Death Field that surrounds the priests. Each round, those within twenty feet of the Death Priest must make a save or lose hit points equal to the Charisma modifier of the priest. A Will save halves the damage. The Death Priest gains the hit points lost by the victims, either as healing or as temporary hit points. Any priest or paladin is immune to this effect. The Death Priest may suppress this power at will, and usually does, since most people recognize the effect and would form a mob to destroy the Death Priest once and for all.
