Incariol
Nil’giccas is the Nonman King of Ishterebinth and Nihrimsûl , eldest son of Sin’niroiha and Tsinirû . Known as King-upon-the-Summit, Lightbearer, Mantutor and many other names in the legends and histories of Men and Nonmen. In his final years, while with the Skin Eaters , he went by the names Incariol and Cleric .

Appearance

Like all Nonmen, Nil’giccas has white skin and lacks body hair.

Personality

Nil’giccas is an amnesiac, as a result of his unnaturally long life. This made him an Erratic , a Nonman driven insane by the slow loss of his memory. He is prone to give long, rambling, sermon-like speeches each night, which led to him receiving the nickname “Cleric.”

Skills

Nil’giccas is a powerful Qûya , perhaps the mightiest one alive.

What Came Before

Nil’giccas was born a long time before the beginning of the ancient Cûno-Inchoroi Wars , making him over four thousand years old. He had a wife who died as a result of the Womb-Plague created by the Inchoroi . He became the High King of the Nonmen after the death of Cû’jara-Cinmoi and continued fighting the age-long struggle that would be known as the Cûno-Inchoroi Wars. After hundreds of years, Nil’giccas and his Nonmen prevailed in the war of annihilation and finally penetrated into the Incû-Holoinas itself. Nil’giccas led the final victory over the Inchoroi, driving them to extinction. When his forces were unable to destroy the Incû-Holoinas, he had the remaining Qûya sorcerers hide it from sight with a powerful glamour. Thousands of years later, an aged Nil’giccas participated in the Great Ordeal organized against Golgotterath in the early years of the Apocalypse , during which time he was apparently close friends with Seswatha . However his last sons died in the Consult counterattack which ended the Great Investiture, and a deeply embittered Nil’giccas abandoned the war. Another millennium later, when the last surviving Nonmen of the Mansion of Ishterebinth decided to join forces with the Consult, a disillusioned Nil’giccas abandoned them due to his pride. He became an Erratic and took on the name Incariol. He eventually joined the Skin Eaters in hunting Sranc for the Holy Bounty on their pelts, with their leader Kosoter becoming his elju .

The Judging Eye

The Skin Eaters are hired by Drusas Achamian to find the Coffers of the long-fallen Library of Sauglish . The long and perilous journey requires them to travel through the fallen Mansion of Cil-Aujas . Inside the Mansion, Nil’giccas gives his travelling companions their first taste of the drug qirri . In the black depths of Cil-Aujas, Nil’giccas becomes possessed by the spirit of the long-dead Nonman King Gin’yursis . Mimara manages to exorcise the ancient wight, and Nil’giccas rejoins his companions.

The White-Luck Warrior

The Skin Eaters continue their journey towards the Library of Sauglish, becoming increasingly addicted to Nil’giccas’s supply of qirri along the way. Nil’giccas assists Achamian in defeating the ancient dragon Wutteät . However, because he has fallen in love with Mimara and sees Achamian as a good friend, he then attempts to kill them, as his grief over their deaths would be the only way he would be able to remember them. He and Achamian fight a sorcerous duel over the ruins of Sauglish, where Achamian reluctantly kills the ancient Nonman. Afterwards Achamian burns Nil’giccas’s body and makes qirri from the ashes.

Inchoroi
The Inchoroi ("People of Emptiness" ) were a non-human, mysterious, and obscene race that, according to legend, descended from the void in the Incû-Holoinas .

Physiology

The Inchoroi looked humanoid, described as something old, ancient, and corrupted. They were half a body taller than a man and had curved scythe-like wings folded around their bodies. Their skin was pale and translucent, mottled with cancerous moles. Despite their posture being stooped, they looked huge, especially because of their wings, and their muscles were as dense as stones. Their structure was variegated and at the same time elegant, similar to a skinned fish that was sutured back together. They emanated a strange smell of sweat and fish, and their bodies resembled fluids that emitted sounds like membranes and mucous. Their head was described as being in the shape of a giant skull turned on its side, like an oyster on its tip. An expressionless face was drawn on it, proportionate and plump. The nostrils were bright slits with sockets clogged with bare white flesh. Inside the maw that resembled the crocodile jaws was another skull that filled the mouth of the first and was at the same time fused with the jaw. This one, similar to that of a man, had watery features with nail-like teeth and eyes with a perpetually leering gaze. They always went naked, their pendulous phalluses are described as bruised and lubricated, and their semen was of a pungent black colour. Their feet were claw-shaped, and their hands were cold like a fish. They were a race of monstrosities who rejoiced in the subtlety of the flesh, creating perversities with unheard-of ease. His mere presence was described as an "appetite", their simply touch could make a human surrender to the pleasures of the flesh with ease. The Inchoroi moaned in pleasure with inhuman screams, sounding like dragons, broken glass or thunders. Sometimes their voice was like ice flakes, falling on sweaty skin or like a coughing dog. And the sound of his laughter was like pain blown through broken flutes. When they were about to fight they hunched their shoulders and their eyes turned crimson red, they flew through the air in a vulture-like manner, sweeping the skies in wide circles while their skulls glowed with an arcane light.

Culture

Very little is known about them, aside from their apparently limitless capacity for cruelty and their malignant obsession with the carnal. According to some Mandate scholars, the Inchoroi worship the No-God as their saviour. They often refer to themselves as "the race of lovers".

Language

The Cincûlic was the undeciphered tongue of the Inchoroi, which the Nonmen called “Cincûl’hisa,” or the “Gasp of Many Reeds.” It has defeated all attempts to decipher it. According to the Isûphiryas , communication between the Cûnuroi and the Inchoroi was impossible until the latter “birthed mouths” and began speaking Cûnuroi tongues.

In The White-Luck Warrior

After being discovered by Mimara in the Mop and having fled from the Wizard Achamian the Thing called Soma called in shrill tones so low that even the dogs could not hear. After leaving the Mop and arriving at the ruins of Kelmeöl the Skin-Spy closely followed the Scalpers arriving at the abandoned campsites tracking the stench of the stool of Mimara. The Skin-Spy preparing to call back on his silent note was interrupted by the arrival of a Synthese , he had been calling to his masters of the Consult , a vessel of the Old Fathers. This Synthese told him that his job was to keep an eye on the Nonman Cleric but Tsuör (the name of the Skin-Spy) told the bird that some things had changed, the Mage was looking for the Coffers and the girl Mimara was pregnant. The Synthese told him that she was not to be harmed and to protect her, apparently her pregnancy were part of some ancient prophecies. Since the Synthese is a vessel of the Old Fathers, the identity of the Inchoroi who spoke to Tsuör is unknown. Later the Skin-Spy Tsuör died defending Mimara from the mad lust of the remaining Skin Eaters . During one of his dreams of the past Achamian saw that he was Anasûrimbor Nau-Cayûti and he was inside a stone sarcophagus, then the sarcophagus tilted and fell down a slope and suddenly Nau-Cayûti found himself in the middle of a commotion of rock fragments, he was on a cemetery. Then he fixed his gaze on his assailant who loomed over him in all his monstrosity, the Inchoroi Aurang . This creature lifted Nau-Cayûti up to his eyes and told him that no one escaped Golgotterath … More visions suggested that the poison merely paralyzed Nau-Cayûti. Iëva was in reality working for the Consult, and made sure to bury her husband alive rather than burning him. When the Wizard Achamian and the Nonman Nil’giccas confront the Wracu in the ruins of the Library of Sauglish , Cleric recognizes the dragon as Wutteät , the Father of Dragons, who after the Apocalypse had made the ruins of Sauglish his den, practically half dead and blind the dragon waited in that place for the world to die, Wutteät told them that he was the first dragon and his bones were made of iron and his skin of bronze, desolation being his birthright the dragon remembered writhing in the void for ages of sailing, having seen his creators descend upon the worlds and reduce the inhabitants of each to one hundred and forty-four thousand, but finding themselves nevertheless still damned. But they had finally reached that one, the promised world , it was he himself, Wutteät with the King Inchoroi Sil on his shoulders the first ones leaving the Ark.

In The False Sun

Cet’ingira was sent on an expedition together with two Ishroi into the depths of the Incû-Holoinas by Nil’giccas following the end of the Cûno-Inchoroi Wars. They beheld the Inverse Fire . The two Ishroi, Misariccas and Runidil , were driven to madness by the sight of it, while Cet’ingira appeared able to keep his wits. Upon returning, Cet’ingira advised the King to have the other two killed. Unknown to the others, Cet'ingira had also been affected, and was now wholly convinced of Damnation and the mission of the Inchoroi to shut down the world to the Outside. (Information needed)

Purposes

During small truces with the Nonmen the Inchoroi claimed to have descended from the Void in the Incû-Holoinas, victims of a cataclysm that had wrecked them in the World, although it was soon revealed that they had actually come to exterminate all life, destroying all souls so they could close the world against the Outside thus saving the obscenities they called their souls from damnation if they died. Wutteät himself, the Father of Dragons claimed to have traveled, writhing in the void for ages alongside the Ark, to have seen his creators descend upon the worlds like a plague and reduce the inhabitants of each one of them to one hundred and forty-four thousand. However, each time they succeeded in their task (wielding murder as their means of salvation), they still found themselves damned. But they had finally arrived broken and exhausted in that world, [Eärwa], the promised world [Ground ], the land of their redemption. See also: Speculations about the possibility of Eärwa being the promised world

Creations

The Tekne (also known as the Old Science ) was the non- sorcerous craft of the Inchoroi, used to mould abominations out of living flesh. According to various Nonman sources, the Tekne proceeds on the presumption that everything in nature, including life, is fundamentally mechanical. Despite the absurdity of this claim, few dispute the efficacy of the Tekne, as the Inchoroi and the Consult after them have time and again demonstrated the ability to “manufacture flesh.” Mandate scholars claim that the fundamental principles of the Tekne have been long lost, and that the Consult can only proceed in a trial-and-error fashion, on the basis of an incomplete understanding, and using ancient and ill-understood instruments. This ignorance, they claim, is all that preserves the world from the No-God ’s return. Mandate scholars speculate that it was the Inchoroi Aurax who first taught the Tekne to the Mangaecca . - Bashrag

- Sranc
- Synthese
- Ursranc
- Wracu
- Chorae , with the help of the seduced Nonmen and native Men of Eärwa who studied and master the Aporos .
- The No-God system

Origins

All of the Inchoroi are the products of successive Graftings, species-wide rewrites of their genotype, meant to enhance various abilities and capacities, such as the ability to elicit certain sexual responses from their victims (via pheromone locks), or the capacity to ‘tune sensations’ and so explore the vagaries and vicissitudes of carnal pleasure. The addition of anthropomorphic vocal apparatuses is perhaps the most famous of these enhancements. (Information needed)

Arrival

Wars

Renewal

Centuries passed and the migratory invasions of Men soon resulted in large settlements and the founding of kingdoms and empires. See also: Timeline for more details about the Men rising power A corrupted element from the past prevailed, the explorer Cet’ingira who was sent on an expedition together with two Ishroi into the depths of the Incû-Holoinas by Nil’giccas following the end of the Cûno-Inchoroi Wars. There they beheld the Inverse Fire . The two Ishroi, Misariccas and Runidil , were driven to madness by the sight of it, while Cet’ingira appeared able to keep his wits. Upon returning, Cet’ingira advised the King to have the other two killed. Unknown to the others, Cet'ingira had also been affected, and was now wholly convinced of Damnation and the mission of the Inchoroi to shut down the world to the Outside. Sometime in the fourth century, Cûnwerishau , the God-King of Trysë and Nil’giccas, the Nonman King of Ishoriöl (Ishterebinth), make a treaty between their two peoples, the Nonman Tutelage, the first between Nonmen and Men. As part of the treaty, Cûnwerishau is given a copy of the Isûphiryas , the great work chronicling the history of the Nonmen prior to the Breaking of the Gates. Although unknowingly, and probably by the cunning work of Cet’ingira, all mention of the Golden Room and the Inverse Fire was excised from the Isûphiryas . In the words of Cet’ingira himself "the Inverse Fire cannot be told … It must be seen ." Over the following time, Cet'ingira disguised his true intentions. It was he who advised Nil'giccas to begin the Nonman Tutelage (the first treaty between Nonmen and Men) of the Men - ostensibly to teach the knowledge of the Nonmen to the younger race, but in reality so that he could secretly pass on the revelation of the Inchoroi. [ citation needed ] The Nonman Tutelage ended in any case with the Expulsion of all Nonmen from the Ûmeri Empire following the famed rape of Omindalea by the Nonman Jiricet . Cet’ingira convinced of the mission of the Inchoroi began stealing the Heron Spear (Suörgil, the weapon of the Inchoroi King Sil) from Ishterebinth and delivered to Golgotterath, as the spear was said to reside there for "millennia" since the times after the Battle of Pir Pahal. A few years later Cet’ingira, reveals to the School of Mangaecca the Incû-Holoinas, or Min-Uroikas [the "Pit of Obscenities" ], the long forgotten and unknown location to the now ruling Men, and thus they began to fortify the sorroundings of the ark. The Mangaecca Grandmasters continued their excavations of the Ark and their investigations of the Tekne. However, their repeated attempts to break into the Ark were met with failure. More years later the sorcerer Shaeönanra became Grandvizier of the Mangaecca and with the help of Cet'ingira both succeed overcome the glamour around Golgotterath, and Shaeönanra behold the Inverse Fire, the damnation that awaits and he embrace the Inchoroi mission. At some point in the next seven or eight years they discovered in the labyrinthine recesses of the Ark the Last two Inchoroi and awake them, the twin brothers Aurang and Aurax . Cet’ingira, the "founding soul", resigned as Siqu and Shaeönanra ceased to be Grandmaster of the Mangaecca, and so the pact or alliance between the Halaroi ( Men ), Cûnuroi ( Nonmen ), and Inchoroi was born: The Consult or the Unholy Triumvirate . A pact between the most brilliant and fearsome souls of all three races, an oath to destroy the World, upon exterminating all souls in a bid to save their own souls from eternal damnation. A renewal of the almost exterminated Inchoroi and their mission. Their first act in this alliance was to kill Titirga , the head of the Sohonc and the greatest threat to them. Titirga fell into a trap and was buried alive under the rubble and rocks in the deep heart of an old and abandoned Nonmen mansion at the hands of Shaeönanra and Aurang. See also: The Consult Years later rumours began spreading that Shaeönanra, the Grandmaster of the Mangaecca, had finally entered the Ark and discovered a catastrophic means to undo the scriptural damnation of sorcerers . The School was promptly outlawed, and the remainder of the School fled to Golgotterath, abandoning the city of Sauglish forever. They were already known as the Consult. A little over a hundred years later Akksersia , one of the largest Norsirai cities in the north recorded the first Great Sranc War. The first great Sranc incursion to the south since the end of the Cûno-Inchoroi wars. And almost two centuries more later the northwesternmost province of Kûniüri , Far Wuor , was gradually abandoned due to the constant incursions of Sranc through the Leash . And it ended up being totally abandoned by the inhabitants of the place who retreated to the south-east. Into the depths of the wicked Golgotterath and at their hoary knees the outlaw Schoolmen learned that damnation, the burden all sorcerers bore, need not be inevitable. They learned that the world could be shut against the judgment of Heaven, and bent their cunning to the aborted designs of the Inchoroi. They relearned the principles of the material, the Tekne. They mastered the manipulations of the flesh. And after generations of study and searching, after filling the pits of Min-Uroikas with innumerable corpses, they realized the most catastrophic of the untold depravities of the Inchoroi: Mog-Pharau , the No-God . See also: No-God The presence of a greater threat is barely noticed by the kingdoms and empires of men, whose encounters with the Sranc are barely recorded. Something that will change radically almost five hundred years later. See also: Timeline for more details about the Second Age

First Apocalypse

Plot between

The No-God was dead, but his slaves and his stronghold remained. Golgotterath had not fallen, and the Consult, blasted by ages of unnatural life, continued to plot their salvation. The years passed, and the Men of the Three Seas forgot, as Men inevitably do, the horrors endured by their fathers. Empires rose and empires fell. Nothing is known about what the Inchoroi were doing during the time between the end of the first Apocalypse and the start of the Holy War.

Timeline contradictions

There is a contradiction in the timeline concerning the Barricades uprising and the presence of Inchoroi in Eänna. Since the entrance and exit of the Ark was sealed for approximately two thousand years (and potentially more) until they were destroyed in circa 1100 Year-of-the-Tusk, but Cet'ingira claimed to have returned the Heron Spear to the Ark in 750 when supposedly the Barricades were still standing. It is known that the Inchoroi were hunted down and imprisoned in the depths of the earth, where presumably most of them perished, with Aurang and Aurax being the only two Inchoroi who survived and hid inside the ark until they were found and freed, something that is in clear contradiction with Aurang himself who suggests to have been driven away from the Incû-Holoinas and being hunted. There are three outcomes concerning this contradictions about the presence of Inchoroi in the world after the Barricades uprising ( purely speculative ): - Aurang was the one who gave the Tusk to the Men of Eänna, he had a way out of the Ark. Although this in itself is also a contradiction since besides deceiving the Tribes of Eänna, he does not seem to have done more than that, neither having approached Shaeönanra or Cet'ingira nor is it suggested that he even tried to take down the Barricades.
- Since the Inchoroi were scattered to the four corners of the world, It is possible that there were more free Inchoroi out there, or perhaps only one, this was the one who gave the Tusk to the Men of Eänna. And later died or was killed.
- The approach of the Inchoroi to the Men of Eänna was long before the end of the Cûno-Inchoroi wars, from the moment they created the Chorae before the Battle of Pir Minginnial. This may be the most viable option, if it is taken into account that the plans of the Inchoroi with the Men of Eänna fructified too late, centuries later when the Breaking of the Gates happened when the Inchoroi were already defeated and imprisoned in the Ark.
See also: Timeline for some initial clarifications

Speculations

- It is possible that the Inchoroi call Eärwa the promised world, because it was the first world they descended upon where they found Magic. Since the homeworld where the Inchoroi come from is completely "anarcane ground".

Trivia

- Inchoroi is not the real name of this alien race, the Nonmen give them that name. The Inchoroi called themselves " Iyiskû ", a term whose meaning is unknown.
- The number of 144,000 has significance in various religious movements and ancient prophetic belief systems around the real life world.

Incissal
Incissal is a Nonman Mansion , founded in the second wave of Nonman expansion from Siöl . It was located in the far west of Eärwa in what is now Zeüm , in or under hill ranges close to the modern city of Domyot . Incissal was destroyed in the Cûno-Halaroi Wars following the Breaking of the Gates . Based on its distance from the Gates, it may have been one of the last Mansions to fall. It was likely sacked by the Satyothi as they established Angkha, the forerunner to Zeüm. Unlike every other Mansion, Incissal was actually captured and inhabited after its fall, becoming an outpost of Zeüm. Four millennia later, the Mansion of Illisserû was likewise repurposed and settled, becoming the stronghold of the Swayal Compact .

Incû-Holoinas
The Incû-Holoinas (“Ark-of-the-Skies” in Ihrimsû ) is the great space-faring vessel that brought the Inchoroi from the void and became the golden heart of Golgotterath . The Ark's most famed feature are the two massive Golden Horns - or the "Oars of the Ark" - that protrude above the ground. It is assumed that the Horns were located at the rear of the vessel when it was in flight. The Ark's crash-landing, in the event known as Arkfall was violent enough to damage one of the two horns, leaving one upright and the other slightly canted. Some speculate that the Ark itself once lived; the Inchoroi call themselves “Children of the Ark” and the most ancient Nonmen songs refer to them as “the Orphans.”

Size

The size of the Ark is heavily disputed by scholars, even in Far Antiquity , with accounts varying tremendously. According to one source, the Ark in totality is three thousand cubits in length, five hundred in width, and three hundred in depth. However, ancient Nonman records and the Isûphiryas place the size of the Upright Horn alone at over ten thousand Nonman cubits in length. Sohonc measurements, rooted in mathematics and the measurement of the Horn's shadow, give an allegedly far more accurate reading of 9,724 Umeritic cubits in length. This suggests that the Upright Horn alone may exceed 13,700 feet (or 2.6 miles) in height. The Nonman measurements would be double this. This could also suggest that the Ark is slowly sinking deeper into Eärwa during the millenia.

Indara-Kishauri
The Indara-Kishauri are the “tribe” of the Cishaurim . The “Indara” refer, in the Kianene tradition, to the “tribe of water-bearers,” a legendary band that supposedly wandered the dunes dispensing water and mercy to the faithful. The designation is critical (according to the kipfa’aifan , it saved Fane ’s life), given the importance of tribal affiliation in desert Kianene society. The pastoralists of the Carathay desert are unique in possessing a grammatical distinction between us and them, self and other, one which can only be captured in Sheyic as “us-them.” The stories of the Indara-Kishauri ranging from their mythical home of Udavant hidden somewhere in the lifeless heart of the Great Salt personify this distinction for the Kianene in particular, who referred to their shamanistic Kiunnat priests as such. These formed the trans-tribal basis for the spread of Fanimry, as well as the sudden transformation of a fractious, internecine tribal people into a cohesive, empire-building nation. By characterizing his miraculous powers as “water” and himself as a divine “water-bearer,” Fane managed to seize high ground built into the very structure of Kianene language.

Indigo
"Indigo Plague" The Indigo Plague, also known as the Great Pestilence, is the devastating pandemic that swept across Eärwa in 2157 following the death of the No-God . According to legend, the pestilence swept up from the No-God’s ashes after his destruction at the hands of Anaxophus V in 2155. Mandate scholars dispute this, claiming that the No-God’s body was recovered by the Consult and interred in Golgotterath . Whatever the cause, the Indigo Plague ranks as among the worst in recorded history.

Initiation
The Initiation was an event that took place during the First Apocalypse , in 2142. The nature of the event is still fiercely debated by scholars and sorcerers of the Mandate . The event took place during the Second Investiture , when the armies of Kûniüri and allied states under the command of General Sag-Marmau besieged Golgotterath . Agents of the Consult had allegedly murdered Anasûrimbor Nau-Cayûti and hoped this would throw the armies of Kûniüri into dismay; instead, they rallied and inflicted crippling defeats on the Consult and were able to throw them back to the Golden Horns themselves. The forces of Sag-Marmau were preparing for a final offensive when the Consult triggered the creation of a destructive force of devastating power. Initiation refers to the birth of the No-God . Exactly what the Consult did to create or unleash such an entity is unknown, save that the No-God's very presence on the World was anathema to life. The Years of the Crib began and the Apocalypse got underway in earnest. The carnage was not halted until Anaxophus V deployed the Heron Spear against the No-God at the Second Battle of Mengedda thirteen years later.

Inoculation
The Inoculation was a medical treatment given to the Nonmen by the Inchoroi , granting them immortality. The term is also sometimes used to refer to the period exceeding one hundred years when the Nonmen and Inchoroi were at peace. This period abruptly and violently ended in the Womb Plague .

Prelude

Following Arkfall , the Mansion of Viri was nearly destroyed. King Nin’janjin begged King Cû’jara-Cinmoi of Siöl for aid. Instead, Siöl invaded and occupied Viri. The Inchoroi won the allegiance of Nin'janjin by promising him vengeance against Cû’jara-Cinmoi. The Inchoroi and Nonmen of Viri marched to war together at the Battle of Pir Pahal , but many of Nin'janjin's followers turned against the Inchoroi, horrified at their appearance and carnal nature. Only the arrival of Cû’jara-Cinmoi and his host saved the Nonmen of Viri from destruction. The Inchoroi were defeated, their King, Sil , slain and their greatest weapon, the Heron Spear , lost. Aurang rallied the Inchoroi and led them, and Nin'janjin, from the field. The Inchoroi were forced to endure a long period - certainly decades and possibly more than a century - of siege within the Ark, under the vigilant eye of the Second Watch . Eventually they sent Nin'janjin to treat with Cû’jara-Cinmoi. To the latter's astonishment, Nin'janjin had not aged a day since Pir Pahal. Nin'janjin related that the Inchoroi were dwelling in horror and fear within the Ark and wished to sue for peace. He asked Cû’jara-Cinmoi what they might do to make amends. Cû’jara-Cinmoi replied that he would have death banished from his race.

The Inoculation

Cû’jara-Cinmoi agreed to suspend his war against the Inchoroi in return for immortality, to the dismay of many of his counsellors. Unwilling to risk any of their lives before his own - or believing that he could only lead by example - Cû’jara-Cinmoi was the first of his race after Nin'janjin to be Inoculated, a painful process involving hollow pins being inserted into every tissue of his body and an age-killing nostrum to be poured through them. Sarpanur of the Inchoroi - the King-Healer and Killer-of-Hells, but in reality Aurang - carried out the process. Cû’jara-Cinmoi soon regained his vigour and athleticism, and soon other Nonmen followed him. His wife Hanalinqû was the first Nonmen woman to accept the treatment. The Inoculation was a gradual process, but within a century every Nonman Mansion had gone through the treatment and every High King and leader of note save only Sin’niroiha had endured it. The first problems did not emerge until those Nonmen women already advanced in years began to die. It may be that such deaths did not arouse suspicion, as the treatment's effectiveness was not immediate and its effectiveness on Nonmen of advanced age was doubtful. Only Morimhira of the aged Nonmen became truly immortal. It was only when Hanalinqû perished, despite the ministrations of her Inchoroi surgeons, that suspicions were aroused. Soon the Womb Plague spread through the Nonman race, killing every female of the species. Cû’jara-Cinmoi realised that the deaths were taking place in the same order the women had been Inoculated. He also received intelligence that the Inchoroi were evacuating Eärwa and falling back on the Ark. Driven to utter fury by the betrayal, Cû’jara-Cinmoi forged an alliance between the High Mansions and led the greatest army in Nonman history to confront the Inchoroi at the Battle of Pir Minginnial and make them pay for their actions. Thus began the disaster that would be the doom of the Nonmen, and the woe that would drive so many Ishroi mad for grief and loss. The “death of death” promised by Nin-janjin and Aurang became the death of birth (Nasamorgas) as well.

Inrau
"Paro Inrau" Paro Inrau is a former student of Drusas Achamian , slain in Sumna .

Appearance

Inrau is dark-haired, slender, and clean-shaven. He has large brown eyes and feminine lips.

What Came Before

Achamian took on Inrau as a student, training him to become a member of the Mandate ; however, Inrau decided not to join the Mandate and to become a Shrial Priest of the Thousand Temples instead. Defection from the Mandate is normally punished by death, but Achamian arranged for Inrau’s escape.

The Darkness That Comes Before

Achamian is instructed by his superiors to use Inrau as an informant to learn more about Maithanet and his Holy War . Shortly after agreeing to help Achamian, Inrau is confronted by two skin-spies , Mujonish and Cutias Sarcellus , and a Consult Synthese . Inrau destroys Mujonish, but realizes he is outmatched by the Synthese, and jumps to his death rather than risk giving up valuable information when it threatens him with the Agonies .

Inrilatas
"Anasûrimbor Inrilatas" Anasûrimbor Inrilatas was the second son and fifth child of Kellhus and Esmenet , insane and imprisoned on the Andiamine Heights . He inherited more of his father's traits than any his siblings.

Appearance

Inrilatas has a long face, blue eyes, and a mane of golden hair . He has stubble covering his chin and the line of his jaw, but not reaching his cheeks . He possesses a muscular body .

What Came Before

Inrilatas matured rapidly even by the standards of Kellhus' children, something that deeply unnerved his half-sister Mimara, who Esmenet tried to actively involve in his upbringing. He supposedly possessed the full measure of his father's intellect and his mother's emotions, which inevitably drove him insane. As a young child, he told her that the reason she mistreated their mother was not to avenge her slavery but because she was broken inside, and could not tolerate kindness like a whipped dog that sees only the raised hand. At some point he underwent training under his father in hopes that learning to read the thoughts of others through their faces would help him master his own passions. Instead, he used his natural gifts and this training to better control those around him, seeing completely through them and seeing them as little more than toys - by becoming so familiar with the 'soul' or consciousnesses of others, they lost all meaning to him. One of these toys was his sister Theliopa, who he 'seduced' - when asked if it was seduction or rape, she merely answered 'we are Dunyain,' effectively saying the distinction was moot for one such as him - and deliberately psychologically broke as a child, having sex with her until he was locked away. He (and later his mere memory) was the only one ever able to make Theliopa cry, which he did via his nickname for her 'Srancy' - a reference to this violation and the famous lusts of the sranc. From this point until his death, he spent most of his time screaming and raving in his locked room.

Inrithi
Inrithism is the faith founded upon the revelations of Inri Sejenus , the Latter Prophet, which synthesizes elements of both monotheism and polytheism. The central tenents of Inrithism deal with the immanence of the God in historical events, the unity of the individual deities of the Cults as Aspects of the God , and the role of the Thousand Temples as the very expression of the God in the world. Following the alleged ascension of Inri Sejenus, Inrithism slowly established itself throughout the Ceneian Empire as an organized hierarchy independent of the state—what came to be called the Thousand Temples. Initially, the existing traditionalist Kiünnat sects simply dismissed the new religion, but as it continued to grow, a number of attempts were made to circumscribe its powers and prevent its further spread, none of them particularly effective. Escalating tensions eventually culminated in the Zealot Wars (c. 2390-2478), which, although technically a civil war, saw battles fought far outside the boundaries of what then constituted the Ceneian Empire. In 2469, Sumna capitulated to Shrial forces, but hostilities continued until Triamis the Great was anointed Emperor in 2478. Though himself Inrithi (converted by Ekyannus III ), and despite enacting the constitution governing the division of powers between the Imperium and the Thousand Temples, he refrained from declaring Inrithism the official state religion until 2505. From that point the ascendancy of the Thousand Temples was assured, and over the ensuing centuries the remaining Kiünnat “heresies” of the Three Seas would either wither away or be forcibly stamped out.

Parallels

Inrithism is inspired by real-world Christianity. One hint to this is that INRI is frequently inscribed on Christian crucifixes. In this context, it is an acronym for the Latin phrase IESVS NAZARENVS REX IVDÆORVM (Jesus the Nazarene, King of the Jews).

Insarum
The Citadel of the Dog is the great redoubt of Caraskand as named by the Men of the Tusk . Raised by Surmante Xatantius I in 3684, it was originally called “Insarum,” until it fell to the Fanim in 3839, who called it Il’huda, “the Bulwark.” The fortress has round towers, massive barbicans, and offset inner and outer gates. The defenses are tiered, so that each concentric ring overshadows the next. The outer walls are shelled in glossy black basalt. It gained the nickname “Citadel of the Dog” because the towering central keep vaguely resembles a dog curled about his master’s leg.
