The '''Tsol'teth''' are the descendants of the [[Tsol'aa]] warriors, known as [[Qui'anar]], who fought during the battle at [[Nishnatoba]]. Upon returning home, these Tsol'aa began to disagree with others of their race in regards to how to treat other races, (considering these races inferior, and worthy only of enslavement.) While it is possible the effects of battle may have hardened the Qui'anar, other factors may have been at work, though no solid evidence has been found for any current theories as to what may have caused this change. | The '''Tsol'teth''' are the descendants of the [[Tsol'aa]] warriors, known as [[Qui'anar]], who fought during the battle at [[Nishnatoba]].

There, they enslaved other races - [[goblin]]s, [[hobgoblin]]s, [[ogres]], and an insect-like race that may have been [[horkval]]i - to serve them and worship them as gods. During the travels of [[Nicator]], in his search for [[Seleucar]], the Tsol'teth took an interest in the surface world once more. Three Tsol'teth in particular were involved in the war to come: [[Agith'maal]], [[Terrin'ukia]], and [[Gattan'lier]], the strongest amongst them being Agith'maal. These Tsol'teth summoned forth the demon prince [[Pazuzu]] in hopes of learning how they might better achieve their new goal, the destruction of all mortals who roamed the surface world, though the demon lord's simple answer, "Seleucar," frustrated them. | ||
The Tsol'teth were eventually able to divine the meaning of this word, but were unable to travel to the surface world with their army of slaves, as the sunlight burned them. They prepared for some time, and sent curses and plagues to weaken Nicator and his followers, while amassing a great army and training them to better understand the surface world. Eventually the Tsol'teth slew their [[goblinoid]] and [[horkval]] slaves in a great ritual. From their corpses, the Tsol'teth took "[[spiral ribbons of future creation]]" and used these objects to give life to fiercer, more heartless slaves with an insatiable bloodlust and an immunity to the sun. Only their hobgoblin captain, Blademaster [[Matic Ridley]], was spared, trained in the ways of the surface world and used by his masters to help prepare the new army for battle. Matic Ridley became vengeful, however, feeling the true soul of his people had been lost. | The Tsol'teth were eventually able to divine the meaning of this word, but were unable to travel to the surface world with their army of slaves, as the sunlight burned them.
