| “ | The Worm that Walks is known by many names, though of them all, Kyuss is the one true name- the most common, the most reviled, and the most feared. | „ |

Summary
Kyuss, the Worm that Walks was once a necromantic prophet of a decadent society that was cast out for his utterings of an ominous future age, the Age of Worms, in which all would come to ruin and Kyuss would become the God-Ruler. Instead of rotting in his exile, Kyuss drew to him thousands of followers and rebuilt an ancient evil city as his citadel.
Within this city, Kyuss found many artifacts affirming his prophecies, and one telling him how to ascend to godhood- kill your followers, the artifacts said, and enter the obelisk. And so Kyuss did so and with the blood of thousands on his hands, he entered the obelisk and became neither god nor man- he became the Worm that Walks.
Kyuss now aims to escape his prison, all the while generating filth and vermin to attack the world that has shunned him.
