Thread

Threads are senior members of The House of Sinew. Their main purpose is to guide initiates through their training and exposure to The Far Realm. Each Thread specialises in one aspect of psionic combat, such as telekinesis, psionic shielding and mental domination.
The House of Sinew is structured around seven key Threads, each representing a critical aspect of the order’s function. Together, the Threads form the weave that holds the House together, ensuring its continued survival against the Far Realm’s influence. Each Thread oversees a specific role and branch of the House, with their domains intertwined to form a cohesive whole.

1. The Cortex Keeper. The First Thread is the second in command of the House of Sinew, under only The Corpus Callosuem, tasked with maintaining unity among the Threads and ensuring the House remains true to its purpose. The Cortex Keeper operates from The Stronghold Sinew, the House’s central sanctuary, where the Shard of Ysradix is safeguarded.
2. The Mindblade. The Second Thread is responsible for training and preparing the House’s warriors, specializing in psionic combat techniques and physical conditioning.
3. The Shieldmind. The Shieldmind leads the House’s defensive efforts, protecting their sanctuaries, allies, and the material plane from Far Realm incursions.
4. The Soulbinder. The Soulbinder focuses on the health and well-being of House members, both physically and mentally.
5. The Eye of the Abyss. The Eye of the Abyss leads the House’s intellectual pursuits, seeking to understand the Far Realm and develop tools to combat its influence.
6. The Veilweaver. The Veilweaver ensures that House members are mentally prepared to face the horrors of the Far Realm.
7. The Voidseeker. The Voidseeker leads efforts to gather intelligence on Far Realm incursions, aberrations, and otherworldly phenomena.

The Threads are deeply interwoven, each dependent on the others to fulfill the House’s mission:

• The Weavekeeper (First Thread) ensures that the others work harmoniously and maintains the vision of the House.
• The Mindblade (Second Thread) provides the warriors, trained with clarity from the Veilweaver and equipped with knowledge from the Eye of the Abyss.
• The Shieldmind (Third Thread) protects the House’s territory and coordinates defense with information from the Voidseeker and tactics from the Mindblade.
• The Soulbinder (Fourth Thread) heals those wounded in battle or corrupted by the Far Realm, drawing on research from the Eye of the Abyss.
• The Eye of the Abyss (Fifth Thread) ensures that all branches have the knowledge and tools they need to fight the Far Realm effectively.
• The Veilweaver (Sixth Thread) keeps members mentally stable and ensures clarity under pressure, a necessity for all branches.
• The Voidseeker (Seventh Thread) acts as the House’s eyes and ears, providing intelligence to every other Thread.
