The Minâth are one of the races that comprise the Khazarkar people. They possess a light purple skin, and their large eyes range in color from emerald to azure to purple, rendering them exceptionally comely even by the standards of the Kriavfahliil. The Minâth have a saying, "born with a crown, bred for advancement," which alludes to the purpose of their creation. During the God Era, the Minâth, a Nidurrâb word for "leader," along with the two other Khazarkar castes, were secretly brought into existence by the deity Set through the use of a stolen relic known as the Danzar-Khâl's Surveyor. This legendary item held the power to create life, akin to that of a Tier 3 Creationist. Set designed the Minâth to serve as the thinkers, proselytizers, and leaders of Khazarkar civilization. While residing in the depths of Maenedhel, they governed the people and educated the masses. They led the warrior caste, the Terrant, in battle and handled diplomacy with other peoples, being served by both the Terrant and the Corralum, the latter a worker caste.

In the Otriring Rebalancing, the Khazarkar were forced to the surface with only their most essential belongings. This temporary setback slowed their cultural progress and led them to revert to more primitive, tribal lifestyles. While some Corrallum attempted to break away and establish their own homogeneous communities, the Minâth (supported by the Terrant) recognized their talents were vital for the ongoing advancement of Khazarkar civilization, and thus compelled them to rejoin the fold.

Since their creation, the Minâth have occupied prominent roles in Khazarkar society, serving as administrators, scientists, and practitioners of magic and psionics. They also hold the highest positions within the Church of Set, and are regarded as the intellectual elite of the Khazarkar Empire. The majority of the Minâth belong to one of the noble houses of the Minâth-Nôrî.

Minâth are typically lithe in build, and from afar could be easily mistaken for an elf. They range in height from 5'6" to 6'6". They possess a heightened intelligence and charisma, along with other racial traits that are ascribed to Set's abuse of the powers of creation when he utilized Danzar-Khâl's Surveyor.
