The Thorian factions faction's core ideology, the resurrection of the [[Emperor]], in fact dates back to the very end of the [[Horus Heresy]], long before the Thorians ' namesake [[Sebastian Thor]] lived. Two of the original founders of the [[Inquisition]], [[Promeus]] and [[Moriana]], looked into means by which the ruler of mankind might be resurrected. However after Moriana began to look to [[Chaos|Dark Powers]] in her quest, Promeus and his followers banished the Inquisitor to the [[Eye of Terror]]. The disciples of Promeus, the Promeans, began a quest over many centuries to restore the Emperor to a mortal body.{{Fn|1}}
Eventually, a splinter faction of the Promeans, the [[Horusians]], began to form. These disciples were continuing the work of Moriana, collecting texts on the nature of [[Horus]] and his possession by Chaos. These tomes, considered heretical, brought Promeans and the Horusians into conflict. In the end however the Horusians prevailed, and few true Promeans remained by [[M34]]. Eventually, [[Stalia von Dressen]] was able to organize anti-Horusian cells across the Imperium. Eventually her crusade led her to research the nature of the Emperor's resurrection and the founding of the Inquisition for two decades on [[Terra]], leading her to believe that resurrection was a hopeless cause. This led her to lead an anti-resurrectionist purge within the Inquisition. My [[M35]] resurrectionism was once again all but eliminated from the Inquisition's goals.{{Fn|1}}
