Tharos is a cosmic and ancient African deity, a gate keeper between the celestial realm and earth, given the responsibility to keep the Orishas “Dark evil demigods” from entering the earth to prevent them from causing chaos and enslaving the entire human race to their evil will.
But every 100 years, the cosmic powers preventing these dark forces from entering the earth grows weak as Tharos requires a human host to be personified so as to be able to carry out this sacred mission from the earth.
Each 100 years, a rift is torn in the cosmic barrier and most Orishas penetrates the earth while a new host is been chosen by an oracle of the gods and the gods choose Stewart, a white teenage kid from the United States of America, who came to Africa with his father on a tourist trip.
Of course there are other dark forces who want the power of Tharos for their selfish means but were not happy with the decision made by the gods and so throughout the comic issues, Stewart had to find a way to drive back the Orishas that have already penetrated the earth while fending off other dark forces at war with him because of the power of Tharos, and at the same time trying to balance his life and protecting the lives of those close to him.
