The Unmakers were a Second Era cult devoted to Sithis the Unmaker. They were led by the self-proclaimed Daughter of Sithis, an Imperial woman named Lalais.[1][2] Originally a noblewoman from Leyawiin, Lalais dabbled in dark lore, and surrendered herself eagerly to the darkness she found within Deepscorn Hollow.[3]
The Unmakers established themselves within the ancient halls of Deepscorn Hollow, believed to have been a site sacred to Sithis for untold ages. The cult emerged in Blackwood during the chaos of the Three Banners War, and many wealthy socialites were attracted to its cause.[2][4][3] The cultists believed that the world would be reborn once all was consumed by the jaws of the Void. For this purpose, the cult began to kidnap captives to undergo "Death of the Crystal Fangs": ritualistic sacrifice through the use of life-draining red crystals.[2] In truth, the cult served nothing but Lalais's own avarice and lust, and those foolish enough to join her were bewitched into believing her to be the embodiment of Sithis's dark will.[3]
Circa 2E 582, mercenaries descended upon Deepscorn Hollow in search of Quistley Silvelle, a Breton nobleman who had recently fallen in with the cult. With the aid of the Vestige, Quistley was located and rescued from the cult before he could be sacrificed. The Vestige confronted Lalais and her "brother" (a giant flesh colossus) within the Fane of Scorn and defeated them, ending the threat of the cult.[5]
