Once known as Marken the Scholar, Deach the Tyrant was corrupted by the war on Asylo (The Old Continent) against The Tarnished and became the Tyrant, one of the two lords of evil. Worship of this deity is outlawed in most civilized states in Ylta. However there are cults all over the world that maintain his ways. Legend says that every terrible tyrant and oppressor this world has known was handpicked and shaped by the very god himself.
Deach has a passionate hate for the Fey, as they oppose everything he stands for. The fey are attuned to nature and generally very whimsical and chaotic beings.
