Subject One is a researcher consumed by his own experiments. He’s the accidental product of his investigations. He’s the first Dreadgod, and the progenitor of the other four Dreadgods. Long ago, he delved too deeply into hunger aura and hunger madra. Now he’s a monstrously hungry and powerful beast of a man, nearly immortal, kept bound in the Labyrinth in the power-suppression field covering Sacred Valley.

His Name

He doesn’t recall his birth name — he’s been more beast than man for too long, a Dreadgod consumed by raw hunger. He goes by many names. The Devourer itself. The Slumbering Wraith. Subject One. “The Father of Hunger” (Reaper, ch 1)

Father of Hunger

Subject One was a researcher investigating hunger aura, which is not a naturally occurring substance or phenomenon. It is a by-product of overweening ambition, greed, lust. In the process of studying the nature of hunger aura, and its effect on dreadbeasts, he began to cycle it into his own core, creating a new kind of madra — hunger madra.

“We researched fusing hunger bindings into animals, whose power would be suppressed by the great formation.” He laughed quietly, until Lindon couldn’t tell the difference between laughs and sobs. “We thought we had it under control.” (Subject One, Reaper, ch 21)

They say he virtually brought hunger madra to life.

Why the Labyrinth

Subject One and his colleagues conducted their research in the Labyrinth under Sacred Valley. They needed a place big enough and secure enough to trap and contain all the free-roaming hunger aura in the world.

“He took a rattling breath. “We came to this Labyrinth as a secure location to perform our research. We were looking for a way to control the hunger aura. ...This site was old beyond memory, even to us. We used it as a trap to focus all the hunger aura in the world. Instead of running wild, it would be concentrated here, controlled by ancient seals.” (Subject One, Reaper, ch 21)
