Once in a while the apparent ruler would die in battle and the magic would fade to reveal the corpse of a serpent man.
Serpent-Men, the unseen priests of the Serpent God, have at times secretly assassinated various kings of Valusia and ruled in their place, using sorcery to take on the outward form of the dead king. īy the time of Kull's reign, Valusia and the Picts had become allies despite the hereditary hatred between the Picts and Kull's native Atlantean people. It was even earlier that the Elder Race themselves had come out of the wasteland regions and displaced the peoples and tribes they encountered. The nation was first established when the early Thurians arrived from the East and conquered those of the Elder Race that inhabited the region that became Valusia. Kull ruled his kingdom from the Topaz Throne in the golden-spired royal palace known as the Tower of Splendor.
Valusia was a kingdom of Thuria ruled by King Kull during the Pre-Cataclysmic Age and was the most powerful of the Seven Empires.
