Thracia

Thracia is an Eid God from the distant planet of Lustria. She is the authoritarian ruler of the Lustrian Star Empire and the primary deity of the Lustrian Orthodoxy.

## Personality

Thracia is the most haughty and self-assured noble in a race that holds itself above all other sentient life in the galaxy. She has ruled as an undisputed autocrat for tens of thousands of years, and rests easy in the knowledge that the universe exists solely to carry out her wishes. Thracia has absolutely no moral compunctions whatsoever, is incapable of doubt or serious introspection, and while she does not seek out opportunities to commit acts of cruelty she is capable of ordering the destruction of entire populated worlds with no remorse whatsoever. Her crusades cost the lives of millions every year, both followers and infidels, and her justification of the slaughter is simply that it is her will that the Star Empire expand forever.

Luckily for her followers, Thracia has few desires other than the growth of her power base. She has long since outgrown the gaudy spectacles of worship, hedonism, and bloodsport that marked the early days of her reign. She is slow to anger and brushes off almost any slight as being beneath her notice. Should someone actually manage to provoke her, however, she will drop everything to avenge the insult and will happily commit all the resources of her mighty Empire to bring the object of her obsession to heel.

## Powers

As an Eid, Thracia is naturally gifted with superhuman strength, durability, and an extended lifespan. As part of her long ascension to the Star Throne, she spent millennia honing her skills in battle across a thousand star systems. She is an accomplished and extremely formidable fighter, trained to leverage her phenomenal strength in hand-to-hand combat.

After seizing the Star Throne, Thracia became the focus of worship for trillions of sentient beings. This constant influx of faith has imbued her with incredible divine powers that have only grown stronger over time. Thracia is immortal and indestructible, and can bend reality to her whim to achieve nearly any effect she can imagine. Perhaps Thracia's greatest power is the ability to parcel out her divine power to her favored servants, imbuing them with divine gifts and allowing them to perform lesser miracles in her name.

While not truly omniscient, Thracia has a dim awareness of every single one of her worshippers, and may choose to focus her awareness on them regardless of distance. She can also spread her senses among many such points, viewing dozens of events simultaneously. She typically uses this power to keep an eye on her favorite servants, ensuring that they carry out her will without hesitation.

The Lustrian royal rite of succession requires the use of a unique and immensely powerful artifact called the Sol Cleaver. Formed of an entire infant star compressed into the form of an elaborately decorated axe taller than an Eid, it is a weapon deadly to both mortal and God alike, and the new Empress uses this weapon to ritually execute her predecessor upon taking the throne. Thracia can summon the Sol Cleaver to battle whenever she chooses and there is no foe in the universe it cannot cut, burn, or crush, and its divine touch can even annihilate the soul of its target along with their body. Due to its significant importance to the Lustrian Empire and storied history, however, Thracia would be loathe to dirty its blade with the blood of anything less than the most worthy foes and prefers not to summon it unless absolutely necessary.
