Thenosian People

Appearances/Beliefs
Nearly all Thenosian people were purple or on the verge of turning purple. They were extremely devoted followers of Thanos, a god like figure they predicted would be born within the next milenia to lead them to victory. All of them believed the philosophy that "being balanced is how all things should be". Because the religion had exactly one half of the entire universe's population as its followers, it was believed that all other religions should be exterminated. However, this plan was never carried out in full because of the evil Ironmanian people who wiped out the entire race with their superior technology. This was how Thanos was born, with his people dying all around him.

History/Creation
Long ago, right after the Yuge Bang and the creation of the Infinity Stones, the concept of Thanos and his philosophy was born. The beings that began to emerge each had a 50% chance of becoming a follower of Thanos or not. Thus, exactly half of the universe were Thenosian.

The corpses of the dead Thenosians make up the dark matter of the universe.
