This deity rules over all things that are dead and never uses any form but a human one.
His favorite tactic is to revive the 5 most powerful dead enemies of his foe or foes and have them fight for him.
When he goes into personal combat, he uses a night-black shield that is both a weapon and a means of defense.

Shield of Nergal:
The shield has a bonus of +5; when in use, no being can attack the god and from behind.
It also casts a death spell aura (save applicable) in a 30 foot radius around the god, and no spell of less than 8th level can affect the user of the shield.

His worshipers (those that wish success in evil deeds) sacrifice good creatures on his altar of black basalt, or dedicate the proceeds of evil actions to the church in a type of promised sacrifice.
