The last surviving member of Nosgoth's original Vampire race, Janos was
hunted down and murdered by the Sarafan at the height of the vampire purge. They tore the heart from his living body,
and bore it away as a trophy, christening it the "Heart of Darkness." The Heart became a legendary relic, reputedly imbued
with the power to restore vampiric unlife.
As the Reaver Guardian, Janos alone knew the truth behind Raziel's terrible
destiny, charted for him when the Reaver was forged. When he was murdered, his secrets died with him.

Moebius is one of the most ancient members of the Circle
of Nine, the council of sorcerers sworn to serve and protect the Pillars of Nosgoth. Moebius - also known as the Time
Streamer - serves as Guardian of the Pillar of Time, a role which grants him the power to bend time and manipulate history.

One of the most ancient members of the Guardian Circle,
the necromancer Mortanius represents the Pillar of Death. Seduced by dark influences, Mortanius became possessed by
a sinister entity bent on overthrowing the Circle and toppling the Pillars. While in the thrall of this dark entity,
Mortanius murdered the Balance Guardian, Ariel - an event calculated to become the catalyst of the Pillars' destruction.
Struggling to exert his own shattered will, Mortanius
used his powers to create a champion capable of defeating the Circle's dark enemy. He tracked down the nobleman Kain, still
ignorant of his pivotal destiny, and had him cruelly assassinated. With an offer of vengeance, Mortanius then liberated
Kain from the purgatorial agony of the underworld - resurrecting him as a vampire; Mortanius unleashed Kain upon the corrupted
Circle in a last desperate bid to restore the Pillars.

With its sprawling, tentacled mass and innumerable eyes,
the Elder God lies unseen in the deep places of the world. He thrives on the dead, spinning their souls in the Wheel
of Fate: the purifying cycle of death, birth and rebirth to which all spirits are inexorably drawn. The Elder God is
bent on the extinction of the vampire race, whose immortal souls are denied to him.
