In-Game

At One Minute Left, there will be a chance for Venomshank's event to occur, signaled by his sword appearing in the center of the map, and the screen being tinted green. During the event, Venomshank will summon a zombie on every player's current location when the timer reaches 0:57 and every 15 seconds thereafter. Venomshank's zombies will chase after the closest player, and will do 10 damage on hit. At the end of the match, or Overtime, in case of it happening, Zombies will stop spawning, but every zombie that remains will stay alive. The zombies have multiple properties:

• Each zombie has 75 HP.
• A zombie can die to killbricks or fall out of bounds if led by a player.
• Zombies are immune to certain Status Effects: Stun, Slow, Wireframe, and Force.
• Damage sources that generate Phinisher points can generate it from damaging a zombie.

Venomshank also indirectly represented Team Bitten in the Possessed vs. Bitten Phestival, along with Dom.

Appearance

Venomshank's outfit takes inspiration from that of a medieval plague doctor. He wears a dark green coat, with 5 gold buttons, and a thin golden ribbon attached to the collar. On his sleeves, two light green horizontal stripes wrap around the middle, spiking on the sides, with him also donning black gloves. He also has light green straps of the same color binding his coat. On his left shoulder, he has an epaulette, with dark green tassels. The cuffs of his sleeves are flared, and lined with dark brown.

He has a dark brown belt, with a light green buckle to the left, and light brown pants, He has reddish-dark brown steel-toe boots. On his face, he wears a plague doctor mask, being a dark brown, wrapping around his head with two straps. The mask has two glowing green lenses in place of eyes. Near the beak of his mask, two black canisters are placed on either side. Three straps wrap around Venomshank's head to keep the mask upright.

Venomshank wears a light brown cap with a lime St. Peter's cross in the front, matching his horns. Four feathers emerge from the back of the hat, two on each side of his head. The bottom feather is colored lime, also matching his horns. Venomshank's horns are ram-like, spiking near the tip, with the horns being lime green.

Lore

Out of the SFOTH deities, Venomshank is the one that spends the most time in Crossroads where the inphernals reside.

Venomshank's bite can turn others into zombies, though he doesn't have full control over it. The plague mask he wears is able to be locked so he doesn't accidentally bite another when he goes 'feral'.
