The Thannasids actively emulated the gods, using the souls of blood sacrificial victims to power their magic. They were opposed and mostly suppressed long ago by the gods of The Great Pantheon, thought lost to the annals of history.
The Thannasids re-entered the cosmic sphere in the mid-400s A.U. after being discovered on an exploratory expedition by the Empire of Alusia. Wielding the power of blood and souls, these Thannasids claimed the Marches of the Ascendancy and the heritage of their ancient ancestors, antagonizing colonial holdings of the Imperial Great Powers.
