'''Iyachtu Xvim '''was a tyrannical ruler who distrusts all but himself and his father [[Bane]]. He helped his father back to life when the opposing gods destroyed him. On his father's death, he lost all divine status, but used his massive mortal armies to break into his father's old quarters, elevating himself to the status of an [[Exarch]]. Eventually his father was revived by a obtrusive cult dedicated to Bane. They destroyed Iyachtu in the process of recreating Bane, but Bane restored Iyachtu as a lost [[soul]], bound to do nothing more than go forth in his father's place. | |||

Banites of certain sects followed Iyachtu Xvim himself, and many prayers were whispered to his name in hopes that he would lend deadly aid to their efforts.<blockquote>''Obey or die in pain and utter destruction. Enslave or slay the weak, and be sure that they know their suffering is in Xvim's name and by his will. Cause pain and fearful obedience in others whenever prudent. Be a cruel, heartless tyrant, and Xvim shall be pleased. Slay the priests of other gods whenever you can do so without being identified by others. Capture tyrants and take them to senior clergy members to be delivered unto Xvim. Capture all wizards and bring their magic to the church-or bring them to Xvim's most senior servants so that they can be transformed into creatures who will do service to Xvim as guardians. Spread fear of Xvim over all the lands. Destroy whatever and whoever bars his will and see that word of his power spreads but that no one survives to describe your deeds in detail except mortals who worship him. Destroy all witnesses to secret acts, but leave alive survivors to tell of Xvim's power when spreading casual destruction.

In the 460s [[PR]] (and perhaps even longer before that), Iyachtu spearheaded a clan of Banites operating out of [[Galik]] in an attempt to recover the [[Tools of the Primordial Ancients]]. Iyachtu himself never fought on the battle fields, but he would use a special aspect of himself: " | In the 460s [[PR]] (and perhaps even longer before that), Iyachtu spearheaded a clan of Banites operating out of [[Galik]] in an attempt to recover the [[Tools of the Primordial Ancients]].
