Voidbourne

Voidbourne
A proto-God being that is called many named depending on who is referring to it. Ratfolk, drow and drueger refer to the creature as The Ancient One, while most other modern races call it The Old God or sometimes Old Gods as it is not always clear how many entities made up this being's form. Of the being that actually interacted with it, it is known as the Dark Titan by the gods and referred to by the dragons (who actually fought against it) as the Voidbourne.

Said to be older than any god or plane in existence, Voidbourne once wandered the planes aimlessly and without purpose. No one knows when or how it came into being. It is not a god, not a sentient being, not an animal, but a creature that could be more akin to a force of nature. Despite the immense power is possesses, for most of its history it was a docile being that simply ventured through and in-between planes, absorbing arcane energy as it went to feed itself and maintain balance within.

It eventually found itself on the Plane of Negative Energy, where it stayed for a millennium, absorbing the powerful negative energies given off by this young but powerful plane to keep itself sustained. Overtime, the negative energies not only twisted its form, but also its very nature. Suddenly the Voidbourne found itself desiring balance. Leaving the negative plane behind, it began to travel from plane to plane, absorbing any positive energy and life-force into its form, sometimes engulfing entire planes, but never being sated.

In its quest, it reached the Material Plane where it was resisted by the inheritance, with the favor of the Gods. Dragons, Sphinx and long dead creatures fought against the being until they were able to vanquish its physical form. To this day, however, dragons pass down a legend that the Voidbourne will return one day the consume the entire plane, threatening all of existence itself.
