What Makes Immortalis Characters Unique?
The Immortalis stand apart in Morrigan Deep, neither thesapien nor vampire, but a class unto themselves, born of divine fracture and primal excess. Primus, the first being, sired Theaten with Lilith, and inscribed the term into Irkalla’s ledger, marking the birth of something unprecedented. Theaten gorged on blood and flesh, his sadism unresting, his urges insatiable, until Primus cleaved him into two forms: the Vero, true self, and the Evro, bearer of base appetites. This duality defines them, two bodies from one soul, capable of merging for fleeting wholeness.
Nicolas, son of Primus and Boaca Baer, embodies the same split. His Vero form, garish and theatrical, clashes with the refined Webster in the mirror, spectacles perched, rationality incarnate. Yet both are unpleasant, their high sexual drives and cruelty unrelenting. Behmor, lesser Immortalis, king of Irkalla, owes his Evro Tanis to surgical artifice, stitched from soldiers on The Erebus amid lightning’s fury. Immortalis crave beyond measure, their sadism a renowned blight, prompting checks like the Darkbadb Brotherhood and the Electi’s futile Immolesses.
Unlike thesapiens, fleeting and mob-prone, or vampires, bound by blood alone, Immortalis wield Irkalla’s contracts, mirrors watching their every move. They govern through ledgers and ledges, eternal dusk their domain, splitting existence to balance chaos within. Primus’s design ensures unrest, for what is Immortalis without the fracture, the urge, the dominion that sets them against all others in The Deep?
