Formation
Xanemus, the founder of the Heralds, was one of the three ancient Prophaniti that were placed to watch over the planet by the Elden Ones. During that time, he was essentially in charge of keeping the planet safe and probably helped with their expansion alongside his personal squad of talented warriors. As a reward for his duty, the Elden Ones crafted tools for him that would later come to be known as The Eighteen Artifacts of Xanemus. Every herald, aside from Reginald, possesses one of these artifacts, as does Xanemus himself. The Order of the Red Shades possesses a few more, and a couple were lost in ancient times or destroyed later in history. Alad Zhenu’s adventures during Season 1 had a few examples of this.

After no more artifacts could satisfy him, Xanemus was granted something known as Perfect Metamorphosis, a transformation of sorts that aside from giving him a massive increase of power also granted him eternal life.

Eventually, he realized that the Elden Ones were tyrants rather than gods and decided to rebel against them with members of his squad. He is essentially the person responsible for the Elden Ones’ disappearance from the planet. The Prophaniti heralds are all members of Xanemus’ squad who were also granted perfect metamorphosis.
