Manthi

King of the Seas

  • Merfolk pantheon

Manthi is the ruler of all water beings, though he is still subservient to his brother Magasta, who controls all the powers of the sea. Manthi fathered other spirits who oversee regional affairs and receive worship from local intelligent beings. Two children are important only in the sea: Sshorg of the Sea of Terror in the east, and Banthe of the Western Ocean. A third child, Lorian, is important to sky worshipers as well.
