- Therion is a Symphonic Metal band from Sweden. They are considered the Trope Maker and Trope Codifier for the genre. Originally formed in 1987 by bassist/vocalist Christofer Johnsson as a Death Metal band named Blitzkrieg, they split up after only two shows but were soon reformed under the name Megatherion, after the album To Mega Therion by Celtic Frost. Johnsson switched from bass to guitar and the band went through some lineup changes, and the name was shortened to Therion. The band recorded two demos, an EP, and three albums in the Death Metal style, with their second and third albums showing some experimental tendencies, such as the inclusion of keyboards and classically-trained singers. Their fourth album, Lepaca Kliffoth, switched to a more Thrash Metal-influenced style with Johnsson changing his vocal style from death growls to a higher-pitched shout. The album also featured classical singers once again and had more prominent keyboards. Therion's fifth album, Theli, is the point at which the band became full-blown Symphonic Metal, with two choirs providing most of the vocals and complex keyboard parts used to simulate an orchestra. The band has continued refining this sound throughout the years, using live orchestras on most subsequent albums. Most of Therion's lyrics deal with occultism, religion, and mythology, and are written by Thomas Karlsson, head of the occult order Dragon Rouge, of which Johnsson is a member. However, Karlsson has never been an official band member. The band's discography is as follows:
* Paroxysmal Holocaust (demo, 1989)

- Therion is a Swedish symphonic metal band founded by Christofer Johnsson in 1989. It takes its name from the Greek word therion (θηρίον), which means beast, in reference to the "beast" of the Christian Book of Revelation. However, the band's name itself originates from the Celtic Frost album To Mega Therion. Beginning as a death metal band, they later turned to combining orchestral elements with their metal music, employing heavy use of choirs and classical musicians, not only as additions to but also as integral parts of the composition. The band is one of the first both commercial and audience successful heavy metal with fully live orchestra featured. It is also one of the bands which originated, popularised and highly influenced the symphonic metal genre, cited as "the most adventurous metal band at present". Therion's music takes its themes from different mythologies and is based on concepts ranging from occultism, magic and ancient traditions and writings. The majority of their lyrics are written by Thomas Karlsson, head and founder of the magical order Dragon Rouge, of which Johnsson is a member. The band has seen many changes in line-up and style throughout its history.

The highest-ranked members of the Abbey are fully aware of this fact and make it their mission to imprison innocent people, and sometimes animals, in certain earthpulse points in order to feed Innominat and awaken him. These therions serve as the mouths to Innominat, and he requires eight different types of malevolence from these mouths in order to fully awaken: hatred, despair, greed, conceit, obsession, lust, cowardice, and selfishness. Throughout the story, the protagonists encounter and retrieve the Abbey's imprisoned therions in order to prevent Innominat from awakening. When transformed into a therion, a person submits to the malevolence corrupting them, identically to that of a daemon. In addition, they feel an insatiable hunger that prompts them to feed off daemons, often unaware of their actions. The protagonist Velvet Crowe is a therion, having been corrupted during the Advent three years prior to the story, and although she retains much of herself, the two types of malevolence she possesses, hatred and despair, are amplified and bred as the story progresses. Other therions, such as Kamoana and Medissa, act in a blind rage before being subdued through battle. In their cases, a full body mutation is evident, while Velvet's mutation is restricted to that of her daemonic left arm.
