Drawn from Cazic-Thule - The Faceless — deity description.EQ1Primary · mirrored
Cazic-Thule is allied with Rallos Zek and Innoruuk, and the enemy of Mithaniel and Erollisi Marr.
Followers of the Faceless, fear their Lord and believe that only by causing terror in others will they be spared his vengeful wrath.
Fear rules their lives and through fear they rule the lives of others.
Pain, misery, violence, torture, living sacrifice - these are the tools of a Cazicite.
Many lizardman tribes are devout followers of Cazic-Thule, but his number of humanoid followers grows daily, a cold shadow slowly engulfing the bright spots of Norrath in a nightmare of horror and pain.
Overview
Drawn from The Amygamalion - The Form (House Item) — in-game book.EQ2Primary · mirrored · best available source
This book is titled "The Amygamalion - The Form". It appears to be a myth concerning the god Cazic-Thule.
In the time before the land was flowing with thought and emotion, there were those who were the only ones who felt. The source of Amyg was amongst these beings that were the only keepers of emotion. Being the first, He did not know of solid forms nor did He need them. But as the other Lesser Emotions would take forms, He too, would see a need to do the same.
In His great wisdom, He chose to observe the other Lesser Emotions and watch as they chose a solid form. Once these great feelings would complete their transformation, the Amyg would take a form that was even greater than all the rest. This would show His magnitude among the Lesser Emotions so that they would know their place in the world.
He went forth to Lesser Emotion that chose its form first. Being the most solid, the source of Amyg that is called Cazic-Thule asked what form he should take. The keepers of the slow emotions of earth told the Source of Amyg to choose one that was more solid than anything that could be. And the form He that is Cazic-Thule took was that of the most solid of all stone.
He then went forth to the Emotion that felt the strongest among the Lessers. He asked the keeper of fire what form He should take, and the Emotion of Fire quickly responded in an abrupt manner. Saying that the Source of Amyg should choose one that is quick to react and all consuming, He changed his stone form to that of slow moving lava.
Watching from afar, He who is Cazic-Thule went and spoke with the winged Emotion that flitted throughout the air. Asking which form should be taken, the Source of Amyg was given many answers but nothing that was considered too long. Knowing that this Lesser Emotion changed her feelings as often as the wind turned its course, He moved on.
Finding the Emotion that flows in a sickening manner, the Source of Amyg took showed much patience in listening to the watery Lesser Emotion. The flowing water told He who is Cazic-Thule to pick a form that ebbed and flowed. Taking this information, the Source of Amyg released His form into a flow of Lava, spreading all over the land. He who is Cazic-Thule was nearly lost to us all, for He now was everywhere at once, but nowhere at all. This transgression would never be forgotten.

Drawn from Vazaelle Kaleine, The Mad — compiled history.RPGCommunity article · best available source
Vazaelle was once a mortal who lived amid the Heretics outcast
from Erudin. A devout follower of Cazic-Thule, Vazaelle succumbed to her own zeal and prophetic visions and thereby
abandoned all semblance of sanity. Cazic-Thule offered Vazaelle
her own realm of power, which she twisted into the visage of old
Paineel. Occasionally, she experiences the vision of some unforeseen event, watching (in her own madness) as the strands of the
future seek to affect some unsuspecting mortal. Some say that
Vazaelle Kaleine sometimes acts on her visions, imparting some
