Little is known about the worship of the Unseen One; he charges his followers to live only at night, never revealing their true purposes or aims. It is presumed that most of his direct followers are assassins, though a periodic conjuror, attempting to discern the forbidden secrets of planar travel, has also been uncovered. Thanatos begat Zephyrus, god of nightmares, on Mania, goddess of madness, though he is more closely associated with his offspring (when he is associated with any deity at all) than his former mate.
