Vad is a god.

He takes the form of a four hundred metre long, overgenerous crane.

Vad created parasitic wasps three thousand years ago.

If you believe in Vad, he will smite all your enemies.

If you do not believe in Vad, he will turn you into a slug.

Vad's most sacred site is Demsin in Germany.
