| - The No-God is an entity summoned by the Consult in the spring of the year 2143 to bring about the Apocalypse. Very little is known about the No-God, save that he utterly lacks remorse or compassion and possesses terrible power, including the ability to control Sranc, Bashrag, and Wracu as extensions of his own will. Because of his armor, the so-called Carapace, which eyewitnesses describe as an iron (or nimil) sarcophagus suspended in the heart of a mountainous whirlwind, it is not even known whether he is a creature of flesh or of spirit. According to Mandate scholars, the Inchoroi worship him as their savior, as do — according to some — the Scylvendi.

| - The No-God is an entity summoned by the Consult in the spring of the year 2143 to bring about the Apocalypse. Very little is known about the No-God, save that he utterly lacks remorse or compassion and possesses terrible power, including the ability to control Sranc, Bashrag, and Wracu as extensions of his own will. Because of his armor, the so-called Carapace, which eyewitnesses describe as an iron (or nimil) sarcophagus suspended in the heart of a mountainous whirlwind, it is not even known whether he is a creature of flesh or of spirit. According to Mandate scholars, the Inchoroi worship him as their savior, as do — according to some — the Scylvendi. Somehow, his mere existence is antithetical to human life: during the entirety of the Apocalypse, not one infant drew breath — all were stillborn. He is apparently immune to sorcery (according to legend, eleven Chorae are embedded in the Carapace). The Heron Spear is the only known weapon that can harm him. The No-God was killed by Anaxophus V at the Second Battle of Mengedda in 2155. According to popular legend, his body turned to ash, which swept across the land and caused the Indigo Plague. Mandate scholars dispute this, claiming that the No-God’s body was recovered by the Consult and interred in Golgotterath.
