Myrkul was a god of the dead and later a god of decay and exhaustion in the Faerûnian pantheon. The face of the Lord of Bones, the white skull shrouded in a black cowl, was recognized across the Realms as the symbol of fear and death, the paragon of nightmares.
“But I choose the dead, and by doing so I truly win… All things must die—even gods.”
