=Backgrounds= ==Each Background== '''Automatic Infernal backgrounds:''' ===Cult 1 (Avatar of Yozi Glory)=== ===Backing 1 (Malfeas)=== ===Influence 1 (Malfeas)=== ===Infamy 5=== As one of the first and most visible of the Green Sun Princes, Kyrioch enjoys a great deal of attention from Second Circle citizens and the Unquestionable. But where many Slayers distinct themselves by the sheer atrocities they committed with the advent of their power, Kyrioch's reputation was cemented in a rather less martial form; during her initiatory Thing, her skill with the iron sanxian inspired the jouten of Malfeas himself to dance; a peerless honor for any musician of the Demon Realm, and one that had various high-ranking members of the aristocracy of Hell scrambling to court her favor. Her strident declaration that she would subjugate the West and then the rest of Creation only raised their expectations of her higher; it remains to be seen whether she can deliver on her promise. Leveraging her success, she has managed to requisition the sanxian (The Iron Butterfly) she charmed Malfeas with, as well as a Pectoral of Resplendent Speeches with which to drown out the noise of her thronging audience or to effortlessly quash the wheedling arguments of those who would resist her. ===Manse 4: the Brazen Fane of Ormagoden, producing a Stone of Transgressive Excellence (in Skin-Mount Setting) === Built into the side of an active volcano in the Wavecrest Archipelago, the Brazen Fane resembles nothing so much as a three-hundred meter tall horned skull with fires burning within its eye sockets and lava pouring to sea from its snarling maw. Clever Essence engineering ensures that the rooms within remain cool and comfortable despite the extreme environments surrounding it. The jungles surrounding the volcano are home to tribes of superstitious natives who worship the Fane and its god, and supply minions and sacrifices to its glory. The Fane was erected early in the Time of Glory and kept as a hidden base for a counterattack against the Exalted Host that never materialized. Still, the Manse and its supplicants endured through two Ages, until agents of the Yozis found the Fane once more and brought it to the ears of the Reclamation. Kyrioch swiftly brought the Manse under her control and her Primordial Essence soothed the wracked mind of Ormagoden, who thought that his patron had abandoned him all these years ago. With the help of Unity's PURE Corps, a naval base was swiftly fashioned in the shadow of the Fane, a berth for her mighty vessel from which she would begin her campaign against the West. The Brazen Fane is bound inextricably to the metal-skinned beast called Ormagoden, the god of the volcano and the beating heart of the Manse. His death will precede the Manse's own by only a few moments. Ormagoden sends dreams of enlightened madness to the wise men and women of the tribes below him, and those who receive these dreams join him as the Manse's caretakers. Though cut off from society, ancient tradition forbids the sacrifice of caretakers to the Caldera, earning them a small measure of safety. As a structure designed for war, the Brazen Fane is armored as a mighty fortress and incorporates various volcanic and lava-based weapons to destroy possible intruders. The screams of the dying reach Malfeas in Hell and bring a smile to his face. TO facilitate an influx of reinforcements, the Fane also contained a Host-Binding Circle, attuned to Infernal sorcery. The massive blazing eyes of the Fane hold mighty lightning ballistae which can annihilate targets out to a kilometer away and can be fired from the air-conditioned comfort of the Manse's central command chamber. Kyrioch can also trigger the Manse's self-destruct sequence when its termination would prove useful or in a fit of pique, though that would be a childish thing to do.

When asked to accoutre Kyrioch with appropriate arms and armor, Ligier produced this piece from his armories, stating that it would be the Slayer's sword and shield both while he labored on a real prize for her. The Mark V incorporates the miniaturized flight systems so common among late-First Age orichalcum battle armors. This example does not project wings of Essence, but rather, an elaborate mandala that floats in the air behind the armor like a surrogate anima banner and changes in response to environmental stimuli. Its advanced trauma management systems makes its wearer nigh-invulnerable to minor damage and can it even heal lethal wounds if given enough time. Finally, the armor incorporates an experimental (and extensive) set of Essence emitters throughout its full length. This intricate network of microscopic Essence conduits allows Kyrioch to charge the armor's gauntlets and vambraces up with deadly killing force, or to manifest small hard-light constructs around the hands and forearms. She can also use it to project energy beams, powerballs, and even a crude form of Essence lightning. All of these attack modes function similarly to a power mace in terms of range, power and mote consumption. ===Artifact 2: Skin-Mount Setting=== ===Artifact 1: DIT (Archery Specialty: Energy Weapons +3)=== This tattoo is crafted from the chalcanth of a tomescu who favored advanced First Age energy weaponry, and stole from a Second Circle citizen to replace the weapons in its limbs. It is now a graceful tattoo flowing down her left arm. ===Artifact 1: DIT (Melee Specialty: Power Attacks +3)=== Derived from the chalcanth of an erymanthus sentenced to rendering for a crime it did not commit, this tattoo runs down Kyrioch's right arm and aids her forceful blows. ===Allies 1: Tya Lim=== Both a Tya and a Dawn Caste Solar, Kyrioch and Lim first met in a Coral bar where the latter tried to pick the former up. The two of them were quite compatible, though Lim didn't quite seem to understand that her bedmate was a Green Sun Prince and the latter was not quite inclined to spell it out to her. Lim sails on a captured Lintha vessel and practically dares the demon pirates to take it back. Kyrioch finds the situation amusing and has no particular love for the Lintha, in any case.
