Aspirant of the Candescent Creed
Tyranny has recently become an Aspirant of the Candescent Creed. The exact circumstances of her arrival and recruitment have not yet been explained.
Overview
Introduction
Tyranny is a demon with bubblegum-coloured skin, white hair, blunt bangs and yellow goat-like eyes. She has soft goat ears, one pierced by a silver arrow, as well as a forked tongue, horns, hooves and a visible tail. She smells faintly of warm sweetness mixed with sulfur. Her elaborate ruffled clothing marks her as an Aspirant of the Candescent Creed associated with House Halovar. Tyranny describes herself as new and appears unfamiliar with many of the social expectations surrounding Dol-Makjar’s nobility and funerary customs.
