Magna Tharn was an Imperial member of the royal House Tharn of Cheydinhal, and a member of the Worm Cult active in the Valenwood, who attempted to resurrect the ancient Ayleid warlord Ceyran.[1][2]
Little is known of Magna's past, except that she originated from the prestigious Tharn family. At some point, before 2E 582 she joined the Worm Cult.[1]
In 2E 582, the Worm Cult invaded the ruins of Rulanyil's Fall,[2] Magna among their ranks.[1] As of then, the area was occupied by the Merethic Society, a loose group of adventurers devoted to hoarding antiques. It was repurposed as "Endarwe's Museum of Wonder and Antiquities", where the society displayed various historical relics to the general public. The centerpiece of the collection was the alleged corpse of Warlord Ceyran,[3] a fearsome Ayleid leader and Daedraphile who had been entombed in Rulanyil's Fall.[4] In fact, however, the corpse belonged to an Altmer member of the Merethic Society who had died in a cave-in while repurposing the ruins.[5][3]
The goal of the Worm Cult was to resurrect Ceyran as a powerful undead servant. The cultists destroyed many of the exhibits, raising the dead to fortify the ruins while they prepared the ritual. Fearing that his secret would be discovered, Endarwe sent an adventurer into the ruins to fight back against the cultists, rescue the surviving relics, and prevent Nanwen from being resurrected. Many of the items were retrieved, and the Worm Cult only succeeded in binding Nanwen's awakened spirit to a sword, which Endarwe agreed to part with in order to continue displaying the corpse as Ceyran. A resurrected Ayleid named Hergor the Fallen was also banished when he attempted to raise his own army of undead.[3][2][6]
Magna Tharn was among the cultists slain by an adventurer on this fateful day.[1][2]
