Primus, the One and Prime

"Quote? You desire a quote? The One and Prime does not give quotes."

- Primus, through his Avatar Primus, the One and Prime is one of the six greater deities within the world, and he was the creator of the great city of Mechanus, where his avatar resides. He is the patron god of the Modrons, but has also conducted experiments with the undead, breathing un-life into the lich Vecna.

Worshippers
The church of Primus is few in number, only having Orders dedicated to him within Mechanus, Grave Hill and, strangely enough, Okrel. All Modrons worship Primus regardless, as he is their only true god and they answer to him directly. Clerics within Grave Hill are outlawed by Vecna, and as such, though worship exists, there is no one to spread the word of Primus. Within Okrel, Primus has been gaining traction as of late, and the Great Church of Primus within Okrel is a common stop for Modron clerics on their Great March.

Avatar of Primus
The Avatar of Primus is nestled on a floating platform, beneath the city of Mechanus and floating above a massive pit. The platform itself is a pool of a mysterious energy known as the Creation Pool. Whenever a Modron dies or otherwise leaves the hivemind, one of the caste below it is promoted, leaving an empty spot, which is then filled again using a lower caste. This continues all the way until a new monodrone is formed within the Creation Pool.

He is the overarching will of the modrons, their mind, their soul. All that they do ultimately stems from him. This entity manifests as the upper torso of an enormous androgynous humanoid rising from a pool of incandescent energy with its right hand obscured by rainbow-hued light and its left hand obscured by ink-black shadows. Primus's first concern is always the well-being of the modron species as a whole. Unlike other avatars who will resurrect from the universe's quintessence if slain or simply die and pass on, the Avatar of Primus is "resurrected" by the immediate promotion of a Secundi, which triggers a highly organized civil war to determine which one is ascended, and which will in turn trigger a chain of promotions. Since modrons are a hive-mind, this new avatar will know everything the previous avatar knew.
