In the year 454 after the Coming of Estarra, Thax returned to the [[Basin of Life]] to reunite once more with His kindred among the [[Twelve Traitors|Twelve]]. The will of Thax is as immutable as the armour in which He is contained, cowards and the weak-minded represent everything which He despises. Little is known about the machinations which He has in store for the Basin, His emotionless shell doing little to divulge whatever is whirring around the gears contained within. | In the year 454 after the Coming of Estarra, Thax returned to the [[Basin of Life]] to reunite once more with His kindred among the [[Twelve Traitors|Twelve]].

He is a radiant immortal and seethes with an aura of pure viciousness, His indomitable form wreathed in clouds of acrid smoke shot through with lines of malevolent green energy. Flaming crimson eyes glare out from beneath the eyeslit of His grotesque visor, emanating utter derision and casting an unearthly red pall upon their surroundings. The screeching sounds of metal grinding on metal envelop Him as gears twist and shift within His blackened zingavium armour, the twisted metal encasing the unfathomable immanidivinus energies contained within. Valves upon the joints of His twisted armour hiss riotously as fierce jets of steam rage into the air with every movement, surrounding His body with an immense heat which causes the air to distort. Jagged spikes splay out in all directions from His broad shoulders, each honed to a needle-like tip. Knife-edged protrusions line the metallic frame about His arms and legs, their serrated edges stained a vivid, sanguine red. | |||

The [[Elder God]] Thax was a member of the Second Circle of the Divine. Before His transformation, He was a member of [[Loboshi]]'s cadre, the Grey Furies, with [[Gruenella]] and [[Clangorum]]. His physical form and divine essence was shredded by the Soulless [[Zenos]], and in the hopes to keep Him alive, [[Fain]] gave what was left to the care of [[Malmydia]], one of the [[Twelve Traitors]] who used questionable methods of healing on the other Elder Gods. With the aid of [[Clangorum]] and [[Agnomenon]], Malmydia was able to stabilize the remains of the Machine's essence within a suit of articulated steamwork armour made from [[zingavium]]. | The [[Elder God]] Thax was a member of the Second Circle of the Divine.
