Chamiaholom (Skull Staff)Source Divine Mysteries pg. 320All mortals must die. This is the empirical truth championed by Chamiaholom, whose mission is to remind mortals that they will one day meet their end. Chamiaholom’s form is a towering
skeleton over 14 feet tall, wielding a staff made from the skulls of his victims. He is sometimes glimpsed around sites of tragedy and destruction and stalks those who’ve survived near-death experiences, terrifying witnesses who mistake him for death incarnate. Chamiaholom’s followers wear dark paint on their faces to imitate the tormentor’s skeletal visage as they travel around Golarion preaching their message of despair.
Chamiaholom despises sentient undead and commands their painful destruction. He has a particular animus toward liches. Worshippers of Chamiaholom can be cordial to followers of gods who disdain undeath and attack acolytes of undeath on sight. Killing someone who has attempted to defy death is not enough to satisfy Chamiaholom, who revels in the dread mortals feel when their time is come. His cultists capture and torture blasphemers, painstakingly using magic and detailed rituals to ensure any living quarry will not revive as an abomination.
Undead are destroyed in a ritualistic manner that will send what is left of their souls directly to Chamiaholom to punish as he sees fit.
