Villain for December: N'Xyldar, the Yule Devourer

• N’ — an ancient Sosarian negation rune

• Xyl — root meaning “festive / evergreen” (twisted irony)

• dar — “to consume / to snuff out”

Thus: “He Who Devours the Yule.” 

He appears as a towering, thin, almost skeletal humanoid silhouette made entirely of black winter — not just cold damage, but absence of warmth. Where his body should be are drifting fragments of frozen pine needles, shards of broken ornaments, and whispering ribbons pulled taut like veins. His eyes burn coal-red like embers dying out. His hands end in ice hooks that look suspiciously like twisted candy canes, but without colour — all the joy siphoned out. All around him, dark snowflakes fall upward.

After an eternity of wandering the void, the festive cheer of Siege has caught his attention. He sees your joy as a personal insult, your celebrations as a direct assault - and, this December, he returns. Expect many death robes in your stockings.
