Oros god of darkness, destiny, doom, and strength |
Oros is the god of destiny, doom, darkness and strength. Oros was responsible for the slaughter of his village and family the shame from these actions led him to the path of darkness hiding from prying and accusing eyes and the anger and rage at himself for these deeds fueled his indomitable strength. As the Heresiarch fell and the earth was saved Oros realized that without the events of his past he would not have been transformed into a being capable accomplishing the deeds that helped him and his allies achieve this great victory. Oros had overcome his past and found the strength to face his destiny helping to save the world.
Oros does not lay down in front of his destiny he sneaks up on it in a dark alley and puts it in a head lock! Whacha going to do?!?!
