Dessembrae is named as Hood’s Warrior, a title that marks him as bound to the Lord of Death. During the destruction of the Crippled God, he shatters the bonds Hood held upon him. Elsewhere he is invoked as the Lord of Tragedy, imagined walking at the side of every mortal; the text offers no further account of his fate or personal ties.

Description

The text provides no concrete description of Dessembrae’s face, body, coloring, hair, eyes, or clothing. He is identified as a male divine figure and as the Lord of Tragedy, but no visual traits are established. Any more specific portrait would be conjectural.
