Lord Mercer, the Faceless One
The story of Mercer is a long one, and one that has been told many times. In all of the versions of the story, Mercer requested justice from the gods, to right a great evil. He wandered many roads in search of answers, when one day he came across a weary traveler. He showed the traveler mercy and offered aid.

"I have wandered the roads for so long without rest." The traveler told Mercer. "I know that you seek Justice for your family, I offer you a way to deliver it. But if you accept, you must take my place."

Mercer agreed, and the Traveler revealed himself to be Fharlanghn, the god of Roads. Fharlanghn gave Mercer his divine spark, and dissapeared.

Mercer took his place in the divine pantheon, replacing Fharlanghn.

Faust the Corrupted
Faust was once a young warlock who fought for justice with his band of friends, that much is known. However, the rest of the story is lost to time.

"Vecna is dead, I have taken his place, the world shall quake and cry rivers of blood. For I shall show no mercy." - Faust, just before divine ascendance.
