Mictlantecuhtli/History

History
Mictlantecuhtli started out as a young son of a fisherman, but at a young age realised he was above such things. He took control of a small group of youths in the hamlet and honed his natural charisma on them, turning them into the first members of his cult religion. He had them forget his true name, becoming Mictlantecuhlti their high priest. From there the religion grew and grew, drawing in all the people of the town. Once he had everyone under his sway he began the sacrifices killing off his own parents first and ordering them to be forgotten by all his followers.

After a few years, he had the cult firmly under his control with them believing that he was the human incarnation of the god of death.
