Maeltinet of Thurifuge

A powerful and ancient spirit of Thurifuge, Maeljin of Violence. Drawn by the bloodthirsty practices of the Tribe Unmourned, the Maeltinet settled in the Whispering Wood, corrupting the place into a Wound and the vampires into its service ages ago.

However, as with all spirits, the Maeltinet was never capable of thinking beyond its sphere. It soon drove its vampiric followers into unsustainable violence against their herd, causing their small civilization to collapse. For ages, the Maeltinet continued brooding in the Whispering Wood, watching over its sleeping vampires.

That all changed when the Californian cult founded Edwardtown next to the forest in the 1970s. Sensing an opportunity, the Maeltinet called to itself a pack of Bale Hounds, to serve as instruments of his will. The Bale Hounds awoke the Tribe Unmourned and began harvesting the residents of Edwardtown. This has led to decades of skirmishes.

In 2017, the Maeltinet became aware of the presence of Quint and Charlie, and desired to make them its servants to further spread violence among the Changing Breeds.
