The Vritra is a clan that was once part of The Great Eight before being exiled by the rest of the Asuras and moving to Alacrya, where they experiment on and breed with the humans. They are of the Basilisk race and are lizard-like in appearance with black horns and wings in their transformed state.

So far, only sovereigns and scythes have been shown to officially bear the name Vritra.

Background

The Vritra Clan was once one of the great clans of Epheotus and respesented the entire Basilisk race at the council of the Great Eight. At one point, Agrona Vritra was exiled from Epheotus and the Vritra Clan were removed from the council with the motivation that Agrona had been interfering with and breeding with the lessers. The Vritra had also abandoned their duty to protect and watch over the lesser races, as such is the duty of all asuran clans. Kezess had ceded Alacrya to Agrona long before his banishment, as long the Vritra were kept out of Dicathen.

The Vritra Clan with the three other clans under their command conducted human experiments and have interbred with the lesser races to form an army with the powers of asura. Nevertheless, it was later revealed that Agrona was actually exiled because he threatened to expose the Indrath Clan’s secret of exterminating the Dijnn race, which drove him mad and made him experiment with the people of Alacrya to get revenge on all of Epheotus. The results of these experiments are the vritra-blooded humans and the Wraiths (vritra half-bloods), both of which can utilize the powers of the Vritra Clan to certain extent.

When the Vritra left Epheotus, there were hundreds of asura among their numbers, but they have gradually dwindled since then. Some attempted to return to Epheotus, full of regret, and others were hunted down as traitiors. Many died fighting Kezess' forces and some were even sacrificed in the Relictombs when Agrona was experimenting and trying to obtain the lost Djinn arts. During the span of a century, more than half of the asura in Alacrya had vanished. As it turns out, Agrona had, from studying the Legacy, who at the time had only been recorded once in the lifetime of asuran civilization, learned how to absorb mana directly from is own people, greatly increasing his own power and explaining the dwindling number of the Vritra.
