By the time she was eighteen years old she was 6’2” and more heavily muscled then even the strongest of men in the guard. She was utilized primarily inside the palace of Baron Uttama. The giant of a woman was working as a guard while the Baron’s personal collection of artifacts was being moved into a newer vault when she came into contact with the thing that would change her life forever. As soon as she saw the Spear of Zenia something inside of her was awakened and she knew that she had to leave immediately. She gathered supplies and took off in the night.

DOMINION ABILITIES

Tier 1 - Manifest Nimbus: Creatures and objects touched with a divine spark (or who have divine shifts) manifest a nimbus. A nimbus is usually visible only to other creatures who also have a nimbus. Bethany's nimbus appears as powerful bursts of shattered light that explode around her. As she gains divine shifts, the bursts and explosions of light may grow in number and brightness. She can choose to make her nimbus visible to normal creatures, or extinguish that manifestation, as part of any other action. The nimbus can sometimes serve as an asset for various interaction tasks if she makes it visible to non-divine creatures, if the GM decides that is appropriate. However, non-believers may decide to string up the false god then and there. Enabler.
