(The Ithorian Home World of Daemala)
In the vast expanse of the cosmos, the Ithorian Dominion stands as a beacon of unity, wisdom, and innovation . From the sprawling jungles of their home world, Daemala, to the far reaches of interstellar space, the Ithorians have forged a remarkable civilization under the immortal leadership of their enigmatic ruler, the God Emperor Morhasar.

The God Emperor of Ithoria
At the heart of the Ithorian Dominion sits the towering figure of Morhasar, the God Emperor. Morhasar's reign has spanned an astonishing 25,000 years. His journey is shrouded in legend and mystery. Morhasar emerged from primordial times with extraordinary strength, speed, and endurance. This increased set of skills allowed for him to conquer the warring tribes of the initial Ithorian people and eventually would give them the capacity to traverse the stars. His rule is marked by his wisdom, his mastery of cosmic philosophy, and his unwavering dedication to the prosperity of his people. While many revere him as the savior and celestial ruler of the Dominion, there are those in the shadows who question not only his supremacy but also the very foundations of his divinity.

The Great Houses of the Dominion
The Great Houses form the political and societal backbone of the Ithorian Dominion. Thal'Veloran, Keth'Marandor, and Sol'Rithara, these ancient houses hold immense influence and responsibility. Governed by their patriarchs and matriarchs, the Great Houses engage in a delicate dance of diplomacy, trade, and resource management. Each house oversees a particular sector of the Dominion's vast territory, ensuring the well-being of its inhabitants and contributing to the empire's overall strength.
Yet, while the Great Houses are the hands that guide, the heart of governance lies within the Grand Vizier, the chief advisor to the God Emperor. This councilor orchestrates the workings of the imperial bureaucracy, overseeing sectors such as commerce, diplomacy, and military affairs. The Grand Vizier acts as the bridge between the God Emperor's divine will and the practical matters of governance.

Religion of the Dominion
The spiritual foundation of the Ithorian Dominion is Thalun'ethir, a belief system that celebrates Celestial Harmony. Thalun'ethir is upheld by the Ta'lukayya, a deeply hierarchical religious order and the central priesthood of the Dominion that weaves its tenets into the fabric of Ithorian life. The Ta'lukayya, under the guidance of the Lukayyama (High Priest or Priestess), orchestrates elaborate rituals and practices that honor the interconnectedness of all things. From the sacred pools of communion to the Ae'laraya, the pinnacle of devotion, the Ta'lukayya binds the people to the cosmic tapestry.
The sacred guardians known as the Mariansya watch over the Ae'laraya, ensuring its sanctity and guiding the faithful. Within the intricate hierarchy, various temple orders, such as the Order of Celestial Vigil and the Order of Verdant Harmony, oversee different aspects of Ithorian spirituality. These orders reflect the multifaceted nature of Thalun'ethir, uniting philosophy, reverence, and mysticism.
The Eternal Guard of the God Emperor
The Eternal Guard, a name whispered in awe and fear, forms the personal guard of the God Emperor. Shrouded in mystery, these elite warriors possess augmented strength, speed, and intelligence. Masked beneath their armor, they epitomize devotion, unwaveringly loyal to Morhasar's every command. They are the embodiment of his will and his strength, ensuring his rule is preserved across the cosmos. These secretive fighters are skilled in every facet of warfare and martial arts, coupled with their mastery of the arts of subterfuge and deception. Whenever one sees a member of the Eternal Guard, it is best to flee for no good can come out of the situation.

The Ithorian Dominion is not only a realm of tradition but a bastion of innovation. The Dominion's Guilds and Trade Organizations oversee scientific research, cultural preservation, and knowledge dissemination. From the Guild of Stellar Cartography to the Institute of Celestial Artistry, these institutions push the boundaries of knowledge while preserving the Dominion's heritage.Exploration is another cornerstone of Ithorian ambition. The stars beckon, and the Dominion responds with pioneering expeditions to uncharted territories, colonization efforts, and diplomatic missions to interstellar neighbors. This spirit of adventure is driven by the Dominion's thirst for cosmic understanding.
Conclusion
In the tapestry of the Ithorian Dominion, the threads of tradition, spirituality, and progress are interwoven to create a civilization that spans both the physical and metaphysical realms. Under the gaze of the God Emperor, guided by the Grand Vizier, and nurtured by the Great Houses, the Dominion thrives. The spiritual resonance of Thalun'ethir infuses every aspect of life, from the rituals of the Ta'lukayya to the eternal vigilance of the Mariansya.
As the Ithorian Dominion continues to extend its influence, exploring the far reaches of the galaxy and forging alliances, it remains a beacon of hope, wisdom, and cosmic harmony. The legacy of Morhasar, the God Emperor, is etched in the stars, a testament to the power of unity, enlightenment, and the indomitable Ithorian spirit.
