Iam He was the founder and first prophet of the Odo Benidae Church. According to the church lore, he was born on the planet Zebodom, an idyllic world where there were no wars, no famines, no disease, and no death. However, the people of that world became lazy and decadent, and thus, one day the tusked god Urswal appeared before Iam and told him of His intention to swallow the wicked planet whole. Urswal commanded Iam to gather all the people and the many creatures of Zebodom together to prepare them to evacuate, but only Iam and his wife Asyouare followed this command, and thus they were the only two survivors of Zebodom's destruction. When they arrived at the nearest planet, they began to preach to other about Urswal's wrath, and thus the Odo Benidae Church was founded.
