	A vampire so powerful that he once threatened the cosmos, now T'Laan cannot get the most simplistic magic devices to work properly in his [[domain]]. Stuck in a prison that threatens to eat itself out of existence, T'Laan must protect its ecology and his blood supply. Because spells and technology seem to break down all the time, he was unable to fix the spelljamming vessel that he believed can take him away from this land. Werewolves and feral vampires keep attempting to break into the complex, which forces T'Laan away from his projects to defend it. He tried to find reliable help, but his assistants seem to have a habit of disappearing or being found dead, likely by his own hands.<ref>[[~~QtR22~~]] p.154</ref>		A vampire so powerful that he once threatened the cosmos, now T'Laan cannot get the most simplistic magic devices to work properly in his [[domain]].

	Scant months after his arrival on the planet [[Thesalys]], T'Laan was asked to perform for the court of [[House Shambrath]] and he did so. T'Laan was immediately offered the lucrative position of court bard. He accepted. Over course of a few years, T'Laan made himself increasingly valuable to the court by constantly offering sound and useful advice. Just four years after arriving in Greatspace as an unknown bard - T'Laan became the advisor to the king in House Shambrath, his position secured! Unknown to the [[Thesalians]], T'Laan was a vampire of great skill and power. Using his ''charm''-ability and the natural skills of the potent undead lords, T'Laan hid his true identity flawlessly. No one, in all the time he has been on Thesalys, has ever questioned the oddities of T'Laan. Why did he never show himself except at night? Why did no one ever see him eat? His disguise was complete.		Scant months after his arrival on the planet [[Thesalys]], T'Laan was asked to perform for the court of [[House Shambrath]] and he did so.

His disguise was complete.

	Eventually, T'Laan decided that the time for waiting was over and the time for action had arrived. He began to initiate his plan, which began with the direct control of Gorath Shambrath and ultimately ended in the king's death. Now all of House Shambrath believed that Bruin, the only heir to the throne, lead a rebel group that opposed the current government and was responsible for the "assassination" of [[Gorath]]. Bruin has become a hunted criminal in Greatspace. The fact that the Thesalians, who have held great love and loyalty for House Shambrath for years, could be deceived at such great magnitude is a testament to T'~~Lann~~'s vast power. T'Laan's artifact, which casts a large-scale continual darkness spell on the sun, shrouded Greatspace in darkness. T'Laan began exporting inhabitants of Greatspace to his home sphere for feeding stock.		Eventually, T'Laan decided that the time for waiting was over and the time for action had arrived.

	The humans were told that they were being transported to support a war effort that Greatspace was involved in. T'Laan had secretly ''charm''ed the pilot to crash their ship on landing. The craft was irreparably damaged and the survivors were stranded at the living complex they were supposed to occupy for this so-called war effort.
