Introduction
The Bloodspeakers born with the subtle end of the last Great Invasion. When the Mist covered the lands with darkness to hide the terrible bestial enemies, the people was lost and afraid. They needed to return to the very beginnings of their faith: The Old Gods. Discipline and sacrifice. The blood that forged their nations. With impressive temples to pray and protect them against the monsters out there. The doctrine spread very fast among the common people and they returned to the old traditions. With their blood they would prevail.
Without a single God, the followers and Priests gather around local deities with their own peculiarities and traditions. Discipline and blood oaths unite them in a common interest even with such a great diversity of worship and culture. The religion that was born mainly in rural regions among the common people reached Agyr with a magnificent temple, probably the greatest of Beluaterra.

From the dreams, nightmares, visions and preaching of The Great Maharshi
I am a pilgrim of this world and beyond. I saw the face of the Great Serpent in the Sacred Lake. I have known wild villages and met prohibited idols where the people worshiped the Red Stars aligned in the sky. In their strange language and beastly habits, they worshiped a spark of the true essence. I sought the truth. And in my troubled dreams They whispered in my ear. A truth so shockingly cruel that a man would cry in terror. I, Master of Summoning and Grand Druid, trembled at the ancient truth that I awakened in my experiments. And in the darkest night they come and whispered to my soul.
In a time before the known time, They arrived. As shooting stars and celestial bodies that have slipped away from the ethereal darkness and from the immensity of the universe that our eyes can only dream. A terrible nightmare from which you would not wake up. I saw before my eyes, in my dreams, in a splendor of sacred and profane. A startling vision to which I awoke from fugacious illusions to a terrible truth. They were among us as they always were. They built an empire and the ruins of this world is still beneath our feet. We walked over this world. A world They created and claimed before us. In their rise and fall they forged in the beauty and horror of chaos the world we know today.
Travelers of both time and space. Harmoniously or chaotically, Their clashes shaped the world we know. And then, in a whisper, They fell asleep in the rest of ages. Quietly, in the depths of the ocean, in the dark bowels of a mountain or wavering in the heaven clouds. They slept and dreamed. They slept and dreamed. They witnessed the birth of transfigured beasts, images of chaos. And from the primordial mud and sludge, the frail humanity crawling in search of the first glimpse of light. The asleep ancestors dreamed. And in their dreams, the poor mankind trembled with fear, lost on the primordial darkness. Shivering and starving. Feeding hungry monsters. Walking on the ruins of a world that had been claimed before their blurred ascension.
Humanity found its way into the ruins of a glorious and strange world of the past. The first worships found the great monoliths and tried to understand its strange hieroglyphics. The language of the ancient gods, rulers of the past. The mankind danced with madness around these black immemorial stones. They saw with amazement the power of the sea and the fire in the sky. They worshiped it. And this worship, fear of the unknown power of the first cults around the new world awakened the ancient creatures of a millennial slumber. Imprisoned, the Old Gods dreamed. And these dreams were the dream of humankind's first era. The era of wonders.
And today after centuries of oblivion, the Old Traditions are awakening again. The Old Gods sleeping and forgotten in mausoleums of the past will return. Awakened in our dreams or materialized in essence and spirit. The world trembled once again and they reawakened from its torpor. Know Their names, because the time of worship began once again. The time of blood sacrifices and blood oaths. The time of glory and awakening. Beware.
Rituals & Sorcery
The Path of the Scholar
From the notes of Angelo Invictus - There is something on the humours that make us more susceptible to some enchants more than the others. For example, those who tend to the sanguine humour are more capable to become a Maho-Tsukai. More, they will be suscetible for the arts that attack the heart. You can summon them, with the correct subjetc of love, after death. Sometimes, they decide to do this by themselves, rising their bodies from the grave, pursuing what they believe is their way to their lovers. When this type of person become undead, the right way to adjure this undead is try to make them think that their lovers are dead, and can't be evoked.
Of course, you can try, but I must say, the undead tend to do not listen.
