Principles & Philosophy
- For the advancement of Isparian power and control of Dereth.
- Wishes to harness the power of the Ley Lines to:
- Unspecified.
- Openly against the Empyrean Race and Asheron and views the possibility of the return of the Yalain as especially threatening to the safety of the Isparian.
- Openly against the monarch of New Aluvia, Elysa Strathelar.
- Not in support of New Viamont or Varicci di Corcosi II.
Criticisms
- The Tenets of the Radiant Blood State, "One must be willing to sacrifice anything and everything, including one's own life or soul, in advancement of the greater good."
- The Blood's leader Nuhmudira is a divisive character.
- Openly practices Blood Magic, and has sacrificed her own loyal followers in Blood Rites.
- Seen as self-centered and power hungry by some.
- Mental state is still unclear after her mind link with the Ancient Olthoi Queen.
- Conspiracy theories involving Nuhmudira forming the Radiant Blood only for personal gain, or to gain willing sacrifices for her Blood Magic.
