Sol'agath

The Sol'agath is a magical clan that appears in the novel Dark Vengeance.

History
There once were two magical clans, the Sol'agath and the Dor'chacht, that coexisted on earth until the Dor'chacht challenged the Sol'agath for magical supremacy in the mortal realm 3000 years ago. The Sol'agaths won and their descendants have lived among humans using magic to do good ever since.

If they had lost, they could have chosen between ascending to a higher plane of benevolent existence or becoming mortal.

The Dor'chacht were empowered by evil. They forfeited human form and been banished to the underworld. However some had survived. The rest of the Dor'chacht has been suspended in time and space waiting for their ultimate fate to be decided.

Shen'arch
Shen'arch was the chief sorcerer of the Dor'chacht clan. Before the Sol'agath struck the winning blow, he transferred the powers of the Dor'chacht's best warriors into objects, so the Higher Powers couldn't find them.

As long as this magic is not released until the battle is rejoined, the Higher Powers cannot touch the Dor'chacht.

The warrior essences were transferred into three humans at the instant of conception, 26 years ago.

By touching the Charmed Ones, the warriors drain their powers, making their magic ineffectual so the Dor'chacht can challenge the Charmed Ones to combat under the ancient rules of engagement without fear of reprisal.

If the Charmed Ones lose, they and all who have Sol'agath blood will lose their powers forever.
