In 923 HE, three years after the First Merioss Crusade (911 HE - 920 HE), Grisapho Vu'tira - the first of the Blood Cults of Kezgihr, was founded deep in the ruins of Drachlaz.
Grisapho Vu'tira was a vampire society of self-preservation, looking to reverse the dwindling vampire population of the Blood Triangle. Blamed on the ferals and poor resource management, this organization worked on ways to integrate themselves into the local populations, keeping their numbers up, while keeping the natives dumb to their presence.
Go silent with the night, feed unnoticed.
- Kezgihr, from his book Kurthac Taloraz - "Third Rule of Survival"
Members of the Blood Cults of Kezgihr have access to extensive libraries and schooling. They are trained in local history, conversation, fashion, and how to meld with a population they feed upon. Each cell of the Blood Cults of Kezgihr has a specialized group of clandestine rogue types. Their methods are a training guide for the Sanguine Whispers, albeit not in a prey tone, inscribed in the Beld Roze for how to undertake clandestine services, supplying all sides in times of conflict, treating operations as business and staying out of the politics.
Kezgihr, the organization's founder, established doctrines for vampire survival. In the beginning these were militant in nature, organizing vampires and using their collective might to take out foes like the Night Vigil, Radiant Cross, and elite vampire hunting units out of Smizerak. Some of these groups had been hunting their kind since the First Merioss Crusade (911 HE - 920 HE), so numbers and organization were needed to combat enemies trained in vampire killing. Kezgihr had a number of close calls with permanent rest by the holy assassins of the Radiant Cross. Fearing for his safety, he left Ma'Ohari and then Karterus, sailing far south to a continent named Hezmort. On the southern coasts of this faraway land he founded his second blood cult, the Hlotho Zîn.
Leave a vampire in a cell for several months, starving it of blood, makes it go feral, bestial. Even the smartest ones lose their wit during this blood starvation. When Hezmort's blood cults wiped out the humanoids of the southern expanse, they went bestial. They suffered the burned wastes of Barba'gom, less than a hundred from thousands reaching the bountiful lands north, starting the Feeding of Kezgihr.
