The Chosen of Vashanka, the God of War Vashanka grants each of his worshippers an amulet as a token of their devotion and strength, through which his worshippers may call upon his favor according to their stature. Those who wear the amulet also gain resistance to some forms of attack. Vashanka is always seen in magical black and red armour, wielding very formidable swords in either hand, exuding strength and power. Vashanka is known to be the eldest brother amongst the gods of Sanctuary. He considers both of his brothers cowards, and discourages association with their followers.
