Luukos

Luukos was the Arkati of lies, death, and undeath.

Luukos was in direct conflict with Lorminstra over his involvement with the undead. He resided on the moon Lornon with the other darkly aligned arkati. In the first part of the 51st Century, servants of Luukos participated in the Griffin Sword Wars. His chief high priest in the affair was known as Morvule. Luukos often appeared in the form of a man with reptilian features. His symbol was a snake and the color green.

Shrines, Statuary, and Holy Places

Wehnimer's Landing, Coastal Cliffs shrine

[Underground, Hidden Wing]
This appears to be a small shrine of some sort. Against the east wall is an altar with tarnished religious symbols on it. The covering is tattered and the three pews here are dry and rotted. For the first time you notice that the thick dust on the floor is punctuated by shallow footprints, leading you to think that this place is not as abandoned as you first imagined.
Obvious exits: west

>look altar
The altar stands about waist high and is covered with a tattered cloth. A rotting book holder, tarnished oil lamps and small sacrificial pots hold their place on the altar top.

>look on altar
On the small altar you see a faded ancient tome.

>look tome
Upon further examination of the tome you realize that disturbing it in any way would cause the pages to turn to dust. You decide to satisfy your curiosity with just the two pages the book is currently open to.

>look at pages
The ancient script on these pages is faded and barely legible. From the parts that are still readable you derive that this tome contains various rituals which are used in the worship of Luukos. The ritual detailed on these pages appears to call for a blood sacrifice of some kind. You cannot, however, determine exactly what manner of creature is required.

Solhaven Cleric Guild

In a Prayer Room inside the Solhaven Cleric Guild is a state of Luukos. It is considered a holy shrine.

There is a reptilian cast to the face of Luukos and a graceful, if discomforting, sinuosity to his stance. Although a smile plays on his lips it does not extend to his eyes. His smiling lips are slightly parted, revealing the tip of a forked tongue.

>touch Luukos
You reach out and touch the statue of Luukos.

The rasp of scales fills the air, and a hissing voice speaks in your ear. "There's no harm is a little white lie to save face, to gain power. One little lie, so many conveniences...." The cold coils of a reptile's body wrap loosely about you. "There's no harm in a little tiny lie. I promise."
