Editing Merfolk/Homebrew (section)

===Nox===
Nox is the Merfolk god of absence and the interstellar void. Nox is genderless but if Nox had a gender Nox would be female. The abyssal zones and other empty places are sacred to Nox. Most Merfolk do not worship Nox and are opposed to her. Nox does not solely draw upon the power of her few believers or the terror she inspires in others but has her own independent power as an embodiment of reality itself.

====Nox Spawn====
Mega Outsider (Chaotic, Evil, Extraplanar, Undead)

Alignment: Chaotic Evil

''This creature resembles an ever shifting mass of darkness and despair and its very nature seems to tear at the fabric of reality around it itself.''

Nox Spawns are intrusions into reality from the Plane of Absence itself. Unreal, formless ''things'' that cannot exist and yet do, they can be beings of both unearthly beauty and unearthly terror.

Most often, Nox Spawn are brought into this reality by the summoning of evil Nox cultists. The rituals required to summon the Nox Spawn usually depend upon inspiring a specific fear and form of nightmare in a victim and then using dark magic to sacrifice the victim and summon the horrible nightmare into reality.

Nox Spawn can take any form of nightmare embedded in the head of the victim to be sacrificed but some common shapes and fears that Nox cults are especially good at provoking in sacrificial victims are:

====Head Basket====
''It moved in a strange and uncausal manner. One moment is was drifting towards me, the next it was swimming away and yet, impossibly it was getting closer.''

This Nox Spawn looks like many severed heads crudely stapled and attached to one another that have giant bloated tentacle like tongues. It may use these tentacle tongues to swim.

'''No Speed:''' This creature cannot be escaped from by moving away from it in a non-magical manner. This ability does not prevent the creature by being unable to pursue by being trapped, obstructed or confused.

====Nox Giant====

''It was grotesquely huge, so large its lower lips scraped against the bottom of ocean trenches and its upper lips scraped against the sky, and yet it had crazily, impossibly, compressed and squeezed itself into the cave we were standing in. I screamed and swam but its hand, larger than the cave we were standing in, blocked the cave exit.''

This Nox Spawn looks like a normal creature but impossibly large and massive.

'''No Size:''' This creature keeps its size class for the purposes of damage calculation but can fit into spaces as if it had a size of only Fine.
