    at least formerly worshipped by the

    presumably it was only a remnant/memory of Hadith that served the Skrulls, Kly'bn, and 
Sl'gur't, but there's some affiliation there, anyway.

Powers/Abilities: As a god, Hadith likely had an extended lifespan, possibly enhanced strength, durability and other physical abilities; and possibly other physical abilities.

Hair: None
Skin: Likely green (seen only as a gray statue)

History:
(Incredible Hercules I#118 (fb) - BTS) - Hadith
stood for the highest aspirations and the noblest values of the Queega.

    He was also known as Omen-Maker and Path-Lighter.

    On Hadith's hatchday, the Queega fasted.

    The Skrulls eventually conquered the Queega and its god(s), and Hadith was displayed in an "endless" row of vanquished idols in every chapel to Kly'bn the Skrull Eternal on every Skrull ship and in every shrine to Sl'gur't of the Infinite Names on every imperial slaveworld.

(Incredible Hercules I#118 (fb) - BTS) - Over time, Hadith became the cultural carcass of its own massacred worshipers, forgotten by all except the conquering Skrulls themselves.

(Incredible Hercules I#118 - BTS) - When several heroic gods banded together as the God Squad in an attempt to destroy the Skrull gods, the Eternal Ajak, who had learned of Skrulls' conquering of various gods from the cosmic Celestials, reminded his teammates that if they failed in their quest, their heads would join those of Hadith and many others on the the dusty shelves of Skrull temples.

(Incredible Hercules I#119 (fb) - BTS) - Hadith's shattered remains were sent to the Dreamtime dimension, where they orbited the palace of Kly'bn and Sl'gur't alongside the remains of the absorbed pantheons of 978 past and present worlds conquered by the Skrulls.

(Incredible Hercules I#119 - BTS) - When the God Squad arrived at Kly'bn and Sl'gur't's palace in Skrull Dreamtime, they were stunned to see the remains of the thousands of other conquered gods orbiting the palace. 

    As the God Squad's presence at the palace became known, the remains of Hadith was likely amongst the numerous other gods that seemed to spring to life and attack the God Squad.
