Editing Mahtmasi (section)

=History=
When [[Queen Neferata]] perfected the eternal life experiments of [[Nagash]] by inventing Vampirism using her Elixer, she invited her most trusted servants of the court to join her.
Among those was her Vizier and Grand Chancellor Maatmeses. Despite his job being to maintain her household and treasury, he instead spent his time indulging himself in earthly pleasures and even as a Vampire spent his time screwing every woman he could. He refused to kill any women as victims, or harm them in any way. He spent Neferata's money like it was his own and bedded every servant he could. 
Eventually Neferata's husband [[Vlad von Carstein|Vashanesh]] caught wind of what he was doing, and the fat Vampire chose to immediately flee rather than fight or try to explain himself. Knowing she had spies everywhere and her army was on his heels, he fled into the same Great Desert where Nagash had been stripped to the bone. He ran as long as he could in a state of fear, losing his mind to the paranoia and eventually collapsed on the sand with no strength left in him. The insects of the desert swarmed on his body while the wind and sand dried and tore from him until despite his well-fed flesh repairing itself around the invaders he was little more than an emaciated corpse made up more of insect and sand bound to his very being than skin. 

He eventually got up and began to travel again, his madness continuing until he found and slaughtered a tribe of [[Araby|Arabyans]]. He made their greatest warriors into Vampires, unintentionally creating a new Bloodline. 

His Vampires continued to spread, consuming/turning entire nomadic tribes while his more intelligent minions carried out assassinations of officials throughout Araby. All accumulate immense wealth, which they keep for their amusement or for bribes to worm their way into another Arabyan city. 

Maatmeses, now known as Maht-masa in the Arabyan tongue which means "child of death", lives in a cave in the desert becoming more and more insect as he maintains the order of his Bloodline.
