Barbatos

History
Barbatos is an alien, the first hunter-killer scout sent to Earth to make certain it was kept ripe for invasion. The Miagani once worshiped Barbatos until they realized it's true intent and sealed away, binding its seal with their blood. The high priest of Barbatos, a man know as Fire-That-Burns-Black, was exiles as he refused to denounce his master.

In 1627, a mercenary named Captain Jon Logerquist was led to the home of the Miagani, by one of their own, an exile, in fact, and together the exile and the mercenary oversaw the massacre. A massacre that nearly wiped the Miagani out in one swoop.
