Greed
Profiles of Doom 1


The symbol of Greed

Greed is the power of unrestrained wealth, despotic political authority, and unholy desire.

Greed was the first Doom to assail the world. Greed is founded in the avarice, jealousy, and uninhibited primitive instincts of humanity’s ancestors. When tribes of protohumans first gathered to compare their skills, the fruits of each other's hunt, and their success in taking a comely mate, Greed was seeded. While some, when faced with their own inadequacy, strove to improve themselves, others lusted after the triumphs of their fellows. Greed blossomed and has deviled humanity in all the long millennia since.

Greed Undead (Concept Art)

Being the first doom, Greed is sometimes seen as the root of all evil, and the Doom by whose hand all of existence will eventually burn.

Color: Greed is green as the odiferous yolk in the heart of a rotten egg.

Opposed: The deadly lusts inspired by Greed can and do work hand in hand with the dooms of Destruction and Deceit. But Corruption, the doom of madness and otherworldly passions, is Greed's rival for the heart of humanity. Those who fall to Corruption care little for the ardor of avarice and envy--madness blots out every desire but those that propagate further lunacy.
