Dyzad
Dyzad was a powerful water spirit1 from the Plane of Water. After being conjured from Hume's Pool in the Sarkorian Steppe by Domora Hume, Dyzad became the first goddess of Domora, and Hume the first of the modern Sarkorian god callers.2
History
In 4172 AR, Hume conjured Dyzad to defend Domora from a large force of Mammoth Lord raiders. With Dyzad's aid, Hume repulsed the barbarians and saved his people. Thereafter, the amazed and grateful people of Domora began worshiping their savior water spirit as a god, and Hume became the first of modern Sarkoris' god callers.3
Hume built a tower near Hume's Pool from which he communed with Dyzad and trained others in the arts of god calling.4 Even after Hume's death, the people of Domora continued to worship Dyzad, and Hume's descendants summoned aspects of her in times of need.3
Four god callers bound to spirit guides succeeded Hume to continue the defense of Domora: Sagiyas Howlingblood and the mantis god Waiixi, Gennin Wintersun and the griffon god Posololo, Alkin Stareye and Ruun, and Jaki Allriver and the winged horned ferret god Enaaku.5
It is said that somewhere deep beneath Domora's ruins, in the still-flooded sewers and cisterns, Dyzad and her spawn yet dwell, continuing to protect the greatest of the Hume family's treasures.3

In truth, the four spirit-guide gods had sealed Dyzad in Domora's cistern to engage in perpetual battle with Malgamon, a kithangian demon.5

- ↑ In The Worldwound, Dyzad was an eidolon. They Watched the Stars more specifically identifies her as a water spirit and does not use the term "eidolon". Both terms are valid and are not in conflict with each other, but more specific terms consistent with more recent sources of the same or higher canon tier are used here.
