== Storybooks Dedicated to Silent ==
 
=== Book 1 ===
Once Upon a time, Long ago, there was a princess.
 
The Princess was smart, and kind, and very pretty, as all good princesses are.
 
Sadly, this princess had been fighting a terrible war, against a very, very evil queen.
 
The evil queen wanted to rule the princesses' kingdom for herself, and wanted to get rid of the princess.
 
The princess wasn't afraid, though, because her kingdom loved her, and her armies trusted her.
 
She also had two very strong knights that had advised her, and who would never betray her.
 
One of her knights  was cunning, and was charismatic as they had been trusted.
 
The other knight thrived in battle, and only truly felt alive while fighting their war.
 
The princess and her two knights had become close friends over time.
 
Because of this, the evil queen knew she would never beat them.
 
So the queen made a plan.
 
The queen decided she needed help.
 
Deep in the woods, late under the cover of darkness, The queen risked her own safety and traveled by horseback.
 
She called out to the moon, In order to gain attention of a powerful sorceress.
 
The sorceress answered, pleased to be given a challenge after many years.
 
"I suppose I'll stop those knights," the witch said, without asking for anything in return.
 
And the Sorceress traveled to the battlefield itself, barely seeming to react to the fight around them.
 
The brutal knight had been so focused on their battle, he hadn't even noticed the woman simply standing there.
 
The cunning knight had seen the witch, however.
 
She watched the unfazed being, and became all too aware of her intentions.
 
"Mighty Spellcaster! What brings you to the frontline?" The knight shouted, making her comrade aware of the strangers presence.
 
The spellcaster only smiled, and watched.
 
The cunning knight knew they wouldn't be able to fight the witch.
 
They moved between the witch and her blood covered ally, and spoke. "Run along, now."
 
The words weren't only for the witch, and they all seemed to share this knowledge.
 
In a moment, the Fighter had bolted.
 
The Witch Laughed.
 
The Princess Cried, and watched as the cunning knight spread their wings, and the witches spell bound to them.
 
That knight, now trapped, had at least saved their friends.
 
The Furious knight and princess, still together, never searched for their friend.
 
There had been a war, and The Cunning Knight was simply a Causality.

== Abilities ==
Silent, as a god of death, has a wide variety of divine (and anti-divine) abilities. However, being Tasha's pet for such a prolonged period of time along with losing most of their followers, has severely weakened their powers. However, they are slowly working on regaining followers and having more people in Quelmar invoke their name. Since the five who traveled to [[Yggwilv's Hut]] came and invoked Silent, they have regained the ability to physically manifest in the material plane, along with simply willing creatures to just die. They also possess the ability to aid or prevent adventurers from making and/or failing their death saves and continue to mention the heed of the Dragon Flame that they've claimed. Silent has been shown inflicting and making others weak to necrotic damage on numerous occasions, as well as shown the ability to phase through physical objects with ease. When prayed to for a minute, a follower will often feel closer to their god, allowing Silent themself to become more attuned to the waking world and able to better interact with it.

=== Avatars ===
Initially, Silent could evoke a '''Deathlok''', taking form of a deathly looking knight. This power eventually grew to form a true '''Avatar of Death''', which resembled the appearances seen above. But even that power eventually grew once Silent absorbed the soul of [[Flame]], allowing them to take the form of a '''Death Dragon'''.

Silent currently has fifteen beings that have directly invoked their name, and one who had been reaped by Silent.

The first of eight, being [[Delphi]], [[Durzibethinus|Durian]], [[Ensign]], [[Herneldo]], and [[Cynthia]]- These five traveled to [[Yggwilv's Hut]] to receive the reward from slaying the Green Stag. When they first arrived, said witch was no where around. Silent took this as an opportunity to talk to these five unfortunate souls first, and convince them to invoke their name. During their stay in the Hut, a few of them took the opportunity to play a tarot game with Silent. During these games, they were given chances to speak with Silent in a more free manner. Because of this, they grew closer to the god, especially Delphi. At the end of the three night stay, Delphi decided to use her third wish opportunity to request Silents' freedom, which was granted by the witch.

After the main headquarters of the Greedy Green had been built in Seglock, Delphi was quick to build an altar to their new patron.  Five others, including [[Cynthia]],  had decided to interact with this before their quest to the fiery gates, allowing for Silent to aide in the unfortunate path they had taken.  Karl Anders had unknowingly offered a sacrifice of wine, pouring one out to Silent while Aesir had played a song for them. [[Joshua&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1655665259202324&usg=AOvVaw3VW4fhIy2BR9Cpre-G0XJF|Joshua]], after refusing to take sides until the very end, had finally asked for mercy and invoked their name. [[Cyan&sa=D&source=editors&ust=1655665259226523&usg=AOvVaw3TkVgm0bmjjK87E7tH7-lu|Cyan]] had been offered a deal multiple times, yet refused to invoke Silent, insisting that "A god who needs a contract to save someone is not a god worth worshipping." Instead, they had learned that whether you worship them or not, Silent will only profit from ones death.
