So this time I'm not doing a CRT on a skeleton (well not a human skeleton).
So Ygorl. My proposed addition is a new key for a alternate version of this character.
Background
Gary Gygax wrote multiple novels for his Oerth character Gord before he left TSR. Now due to ownership disputes with the company he ended up leaving it, but he had the legal right to finish the series and did. Ending it with the villains destroying the old Multiverse while the heroes are remade into a new one without Tharizdun attempting to kill everyone (also a link to his then upcoming tabletop game Dangerous Journey
Plot
So Ygorl, called Lord Entropy in the novels, sets out on demolishing the mutliverse. He does this by manipulating events and people to free Tharizdun, the chained god and having him destroy everything.
In here we get a few solid quotes for him

Plot
So Ygorl, called Lord Entropy in the novels, sets out on demolishing the mutliverse. He does this by manipulating events and people to free Tharizdun, the chained god and having him destroy everything.
In here we get a few solid quotes for him
- He is empowered by Entropy
- As mentioned before his goal is for Tharizdun to obliterate the multiverse, since that will allow him to be the conceptual embodiment of multiversal entropy
- After Tharizdun does the deed, they fight in their now destroyed multiverse which is confirmed by third person narration at the tail end of the book
- It is noted that every Demon Prince present, one of which was Graz'zt, was capable of harming Ygorl in his enhanced form
- The book never points out who ended up winning, but 4th edition implied it was Tharizdun. Since they mention he was trapped in an alternate multiverse that he had previously destroyed with the Abyss now representing everything rather than Entropy
- Ygorl gains a third key that we can call "Lord Entropy"
- This key will be 2-A due to Ygorl being the conceptual embodiment of a totally destroyed multiverse
- His battle with Tharizdun lasted for eons, so his stamina can be expanded on for that key
- He probably gains extra powers but I don't personally know how to word those
- We add Ygorl's froggy form to his page
- His base keys should probably get whatever power this and this are
SourcesGord: "You are of ultimate chaos!"
Ygorl: "Never. I will consume the wild motion, eliminate randomness as I do order, wipe out death by removing life, burn out life and slay darkness into nothing. I am truly neutral, the actual balance of all. I am nothingness and everything — in their proper states."
