I'm just wondering if anyone would be willing to post the object desc of a Nihilist symbol. Any one would work, but Nifilhema's or Baalphegar's are preferred. If I can get all of them, that would be great too. Thanks in advance.

Luciphage:

Wrought of obsidian so black it could have been plucked from the depths of the
Void itself, this symbol is carved with the profane and unholy symbols of utter
damnation and supreme, limitless domination. The unmistakable image of the
Throne of the Beast is chiseled into the abyssal stone, its bones wrought in
exquisite detail. The wailing of damned souls sings timidly from the symbol, and
a palpable aura of damnation sucks the light and life from around the symbol.


Nifilhema:

This porous, volcanic stone slowly oozes crimson blood from
deep within its reddish-brown core, covering the symbol in its sticky, warm
wetness. The scenes of cruel torture and exquisite agonies inflicted on the
flesh are deeply carved into the flat front surface of the symbol, depicting an
art wrought only in suffering. A sweet symphony of excruciating screams echoes
softly from the symbol, so insubstantial that it could nearly be imagined if not
for its constant presence.

There you go, have fun

Right, those are hard to draw. Anyone have Baalphegar, Gorgulu and Ashtorath?

Gorgulu's is badass... but I didn't save its description. It's basically a mound of clay, rather than a stone, etched with symbols of madness, disease, and hunger.

I'm working on getting Baalphegar's... only 20 more spikes to go!

Okay, Baalphegar's Symbol...

A chilling symbol of despair:

Chillingly cold to the touch, this stone symbol has been engraved with an incredibly fine pattern of webbing that entangles the whole of the symbol. The Nihilistic runes representing despair, deceit, and cunning are etched deeply into the stone, along with the depiction of a vile tome amidst a spider's insidious web. The carved stone leeches the very warmth out of the air around it, leaving only the chill of the grave.

Ah, lovely. The description artist there didn't take the lazy route of throwing generic imagery and did something specific. Thanks a whole lot.
