Biography[]
Origin[]
Nunn-Jahad was created alongside it's six siblings by the great spirit Anum at the beginning of time, using some of God's powers, but the Ogdru Jahad did not come to live until night when darkness filled them. After the Seven Gods of Chaos awoke, they spawned the demonic Ogdru Hem into existence, who went to war with the spirits. The Hem were disposed by the Spriti's, the Seven Gods of Chaos were sealed in Gold crystal-cocoons and cast into the abyss. The only way to release them would be Anum's Right Hand of Doom.
He, alongside the six others, would influence individuals from afar, such as Grigori Rasputin.
Hell on Earth[]
