[THAN-ah-tahr]
Chaos pantheon — chaos god, the Severed God
In the Gods War, a chaos god named Tien commanded a colossal chaos swarm. He was captured by Storm Bull and broken into two pieces. Each of these two pieces survived and became the center of a small cult — Tien, god of headhunters; and Atyar, god of knowledge-thieves. In historical times the worship of these two small cults was combined into one cult worshiping one god, called Thanatar.
Thanatar is usually shown as a gaunt figure with many heads hanging from his belt. He often carries his own head under one arm.
