'''Moander''' was the god of decay and corruption, in the [[Forgotten Realms]]. He was effectively their version of [[Nurgle]], who has went from a full-fledged [[god]] to something else now.

==History==
Moander was one of the gods born from the primordial battle between [[Selûne]] and [[Shar]], having been born alongside [[Jergal]] and [[Garagos]]. He was also the one responsible for corrupting [[Tyche]], having created a rose that slowly turned her twisted, leading to her being cleaved in two and splitting into [[Tymora]] and [[Beshaba]].

In 75 DR, Moander attacked the [[Elf|elven]] city of Tsornyl, corrupting all local life and his followers into monsters. Though elves fought well, the avatar of the god proved too strong to kill, so they opted to seal it within the city, causing the gods influence to plummet for a long time. The elves fought to keep the gods avatar locked and dealt with the remaining followers, until 1357 DR, when a mercenary group was fooled into releasing the avatar. The group did however manage to kill the avatar, and after a long series of events, the god itself was killed in his home plane, and his divinity used by [[Finder Wyvernspur]] to ascend to godhood.

Then [[The Sundering]] happened, and a lot of people suddenly woke up as [[warlock]]s, having had a dream where they were told to do the will of Moander, or by consumed by the rot from within.
