Innoruuk

Innoruuk, The Prince of Hate, is a fictional deity in the EverQuest universe. He is allied with Rallos Zek and Cazic-Thule, and the enemy of Quellious, Mithaniel Marr, and Erollisi Marr. Followers of Innoruuk include nearly the entire dark elven race who regard him as their "Father". They believe that hate is a creative force, or rather "THE" creative force in the universe – creativity born of destruction. Love and kindness are tools for those too ignorant to know what they want or too cowardly to do what is necessary to obtain it. They believe that it is only through the total disdain of your enemies that you can gain true power over them. Pity and mercy have no power when confronted with contempt and viciousness. It is the honest belief of the followers of Innoruuk that if they were to hate strongly enough, they could destroy all of Norrath.

In EverQuest II, set 500 years after EverQuest, the gods have departed Norrath and his activities at that time frame are currently unknown. While a number of other dark gods, such as Solusek Ro and Rallos Zek made a last swipe at Norrath before the departure of the Norrathian Pantheon, Innoruuk chose simply to abandon the mortals, believing that alone, the residents of Norrath would simply consume each other in disorder and hate.
