Pluta Thana

Pluta Thana was a human wizardess from Banor who is best known for inventing the ritual of crucimigration, which allowed for the transformation of living beings into undead creatures. She is also known for founding the city-state of Sid, a necropolis located in the Underdark of Androsia.
Born in Banor to a family of wizards, Pluta Thana showed an early talent for magic. She was supposedly apprenticed to the powerful archtheurge Megiddo Mehida, with whom she studied for many years, although historians dispute whether the chronology would permit this; she might have been apprenticed to some other powerful necromancer. During her apprenticeship, Thana became fascinated with the concept of immortality and began experimenting with various magical rituals that might allow for eternal life.
It was during these experiments that Thana discovered or invented the ritual of crucimigration. The process involved imbuing a living being with necrotic energy, effectively killing them and then resurrecting them as an undead creature. Thana believed that this process would allow individuals to achieve immortality, as they would no longer be susceptible to disease or old age.
Thana convinced Mehida to allow her to perform the ritual on herself, and she successfully transformed into a powerful undead wizardess. She then set out to establish a new civilization where individuals could undergo the ritual and live forever.
Thana discovered a vast underground network of tunnels and caverns in Androsia and chose this location to establish her new city. She named it Sid, and it quickly became known as a sanctuary for those seeking immortality through the ritual of crucimigration.
Ultimately, Thana's reign came to an end when she was killed by a rival necromancer.
