|blurb3= Endbringers have a strange way about them, their forms and powers seem to spit in the face of humanities various cultures, There are scholars who debate and theorize about this, and one that they reference in particular is 'Golden Calf' known among some religious folks as 'The Deciever'. | |||
Among the worlds religious, regardless of creed, there are some who believe Golden Calf, to be of a demonic persuasion, while a vocal minority liken the Endbringer to the fabled 'Anti-Christ.' | |||
|blurb4= '''Jerusalem, Israel - December 23rd, 2016''' | |||
All Endbringer attacks seem targeted for maximum destruction of the human way of life, but few are as insidious as Golden Calf's appearance in Jerusalem. | |||
In a city considered Holy by not one, but three of the worlds largest religions, so shortly after Hanukkah, and so shortly before Christmas, there is scarcely a worse place for this particular Endbringer to attack, with notable exceptions being perhaps the Vatican, or Mecca. | |||
Its appearance was with great fan-fare, the cloud cover opening up, and the sunlight beaming down as it lowered seemingly from the heavens. Its appearance tailored uniquely to the sight of every unpowered human being who gazed upon it, resembling a divine being, seemingly reflecting their religious leanings, or cultural upbringings. | |||
In moments, those of a religious persuasion had fallen under its sway, having Mastered every religiously practicing human in the city, driving them to acts of worship, violence, and religious euphoria, each of them growing fleshy growths upon their body, their skin splitting open, revealing hundreds of eyes, the Endbringer seemingly gazing through those under its thrall. | |||
Parahumans were seemingly immune to this thrall, and could actually see past the Endbringer's illusions, underneath the image of the divine, standing triumphantly surrounded by prostrate and weeping followers, stands a 30 Meter tall Minotaur, its skin resembling solid gold, hundreds of thousands of eyes the size of dinner plates cover its metallic form. | |||
Worst of all where those driven mad by the Deceiver, bombarded by religious visions, many of the civilians under its sway were made to trigger, becoming something wholly unique from a traditional parahuman, resembling golden-skinned versions of themselves, and dubbed 'Nephilim' These powered-thralls would speak in unison regardless of distance from one another, speaking praises of the Endbringer, and directing the human thralls to better defile eachother, and the city in the name of the divine, as well as to attack those who sought to repel and kill the Endbringer. | |||
The response to repel the Endbringer hampered less by its own impressive physical stature and durability, and more the zealous thralls both unpowered and powered defending it with their last breaths. Eventually done with the destruction it had wrought, it ascended into the heavens, disappearing all together via some form of stranger or mover ability. Those under its thrall who were unpowered seemingly reverted with only the addition of now closed eyes littering their forms. The Nephilim either being put down or disappearing under mysterious circumstances. | |||
|blurb5= '''Kingston, Jamaica - November 11th, 2017''' | |||
The next year the Golden Calf approached from the sea, along side a number of Nephilem from the year prior. Among the Nephilem were a powerful Hydrokinetic, and a powerful Telekinetic, who reenacted a bastardized version of Moses parting the red sea (in this case the bay) | |||
Two-Thirds of its thralls worshiping it with vile acts in the city center, enacting violence and debauchery upon those not under its sway, while the other One-Third rounded up non-believers and ushered them to the bottom of the parted bay, where they were chained together in a great heap of writhing terrified civilians. | |||
Attempts to retrieve and rescue the prisoners were made by Endbringer response, but were successfully repelled by the Deceivers Thralls. | |||
Meanwhile on land, the Endbringer itself was facing an uphill battle against the assembled heroes and villains of the world. Perhaps if the Endbringer had fled earlier in the fight it would not have been slain, the circumstances were in humanities favor though, and after chipping away at the beast, an especially powerful Metallokinetic dealt the final blow (See article on the Vatican Hero 'Brother Longinus, the Redeemed', formerly the villain 'Haystack'.) | |||
Not all was to be celebrated, too many lives were lost, the Nephilem either fled for the hills, or killed themselves at the loss of their Prophet, unfortunately among those that took their own lives were the two keeping the waters of the bay parted. Dooming the prisoners to be crushed beneath the weight of the ocean. Their bodies chained together, and to the ground in such a manner, that it wasn't until 2019 that they had removed and retrieved the vast majority of the bodies from beneath the waters of the tainted bay | |||
