History

The Beast-God was one of the Old Ones, who dwelt on Earth ages before the coming of mankind. Crawling in Vanaria, in the Northern Islands, during the centuries between the Final Cataclysm and the beginning of recorded history, he kept receiving human sacrifices.

Fighting with Beowulf

When Beowulf came to Vanaria to conquer it, he killed the Beast-God. Taking over the country, his men were eventually driven mad by the Ghost-Beast (the ghostly apparition of the Beast-God), and killed each other. The people of Vanaria took the opportunity to overwhelm and slay Beowulf's troops, and capture their leader. They intended to use him as a sacrifice to pacify the Ghost-Beast, but Princess Ulana secretly poisoned him, for him to become a ghost and fight the Ghost-Beast again, finally destroying it. Beowulf realized his death only after having killed the monster.[1]
