Description
The Khthones are not one race but many, a myriad of reptilian anthropomorphs created by the Atalantes to be their servants & their menials, vassals to die in battle for them & thralls to bend to their every will, whim or desire. For thousands of years the Khthones suffered this cruel slavery, years of pain & mutilation & barbarity, until their endurance was finally exhausted & the chains that bound them could be borne no more. Led by the Gorgon known as Ophios, the Gorgonares turned on their progenitors & slaughtered them, rousing Krokodar, Lskar, Hydrar & many others of the earth to unite & win freedom; yet the struggle to break free from Atalantia is not so simple, as vengeance must be served & the Atalantes are warriors still.
Svrill has wielded the power of Khthon through all of his long life for, once transformed, his inchoate mind could do little else; his masters, sometimes callous, sometimes malevolent, mostly indifferent, cared little for such talent, for their attentions were upon the very future of Atalantia & by extension their race. Yet Svrill, forced into a life of slaughter & pain like all of his kin, still developed the skills to use the incredible power within the earth regardless, for once awoken, it could not be forsaken, & if the Gorgonares were ever to free themselves from the shackles of slavery he knew he would have a part to play. Svrill's strength matured to incredible proportions during his slavery & when it became apparent to the Atalantes - who, more than any other humans, understand the power of the earth - they realised their mistake & hated him for it, for many believe that he has accelerated the decline of their lands. Whether he can indeed wield such power remains to be seen, but all know that with Svrill by his side Ophios will destroy accursed Atalantia, one way or another.
