Five hundred years ago, long before the Vorn family consolidated their grip on the Thirteen Worlds, before the Dravens established their martial dynasty, before any of the current great families held power, there existed a clan that struck terror into the heart of every living civilization.
The Devouring Spirit Clan.
Their bloodline was designated as a curse—a genetic anomaly that allowed them to devour people's abilities and special traits of beasts and demons alike to make themselves stronger. They didn't simply learn techniques or mimic powers. They consumed them, integrated them and made them permanently their own. A Devouring Spirit Clan member who killed a fire cultivator would gain their fire affinity. One who slaughtered a dragon could manifest dragon scales. Their potential was limitless, and their hunger was insatiable.
