Lady Illugas is the first demizen. She has lived so long that she has the capability to layer the abilities she claims from the undead. She revels in the fun of torture, finding pleasure in the pain of others. Her voice is wispy and echoes or can become as loud as a dragons roar to the point of ear splitting pain. Her mere presence is able to age people to dust. Her gaze is strong enough to kill. Her breath is able to make the dead rise as undead monstrosities of there former selves. Her touch is so deadly it drives the spirit of the fallen to become a vile spirit of violence abiding her every whim. Her body becomes translucent and as she floats to her enemies she can take control and becomes them. Her home plane is that of never ending shadows, she travels back and forth as she desires. She is the Scourge of Pain, be afraid...very afraid. |
