== Merits ==

<br />Languages 3: Riverspeak(n), Low Realm, Old Realm, Skytongue.
<br />Artifact 3: '''A Leaf of Szoreny''' (3-dot Starmetal, Chalcanth, and Vitriol Skycutter)
*This hard-to-observe skycutter is a jagged, mirror-shined blade with handles of eerily clear leather, that drips a vitriol which seems to gather and stifle color.  Barely perceptible on the flat of the blades, except in guttering twilight, the harsh light of Ligier, or certain alchemical preparations, sutras are engraved from the Broken-Winged Crane.  Until recently, it was a sacred (and useless) relic to a hidden cult of Ca'ar-Iqqesh, The Harvest of Twisted Seed, a second-circle soul of Szoreny.  A slave to one of the Patrician mistresses of the cult (technically slave to a Dragon-blooded Dynast and rented, this being the Realm) used guile and well-placed whispers to ensure that Immaculate attention fell on the cult, and absconded with the Leaf.
*Uses Spring Razor's evocations and stats other than being a Skycutter instead of a Daiklave. A Solar, Infernal, or any sort of Akuma who attunes to A Leaf of Szoreny gains Howling Lotus Strike at no cost. The Leaf of Szoreny boasts two hearthstone sockets hidden by illusion among its mirrored facets.
*'''Evocations'''
**>Howling Lotus Strike (Spring Razor 620)
**>Venom-Intensifying Stroke (Spring Razor 620)
<br />Artifact 3: '''Belt of Shadow Walking''' (page 602)
*All stealth rolls at +3
*10m to turn into living shadow for 1 scene
**Pass through tiny cracks
**Diff 2 to notice in direct light, otherwise invisible
**Standard immaterial advantages and disadvantages while in shadow form
**Can transform worn/carried items but not other beings
<br />Familiar 1: '''Piq''' the albino mink
<br />Contacts 3: '''Immaculate Order''' - monks, missionaries, etc

! Intimacy
! Intensity
! Details
|-
| Demon-Worshippers
| Defining Negative Tie
| She has a very proximate grudge
|-
| Never a slave again
| Defining Principle
| Anything that looks like it might end up with her in bondage or servitude to another again will rouse her anger and the full measure of her resistance
|-
| The powerful should be wary - of me
| Major Principle
| She doesn't have a problem with authority per se, just authority figures doing things she doesn't like, and she's likely to take an opportunity to 'keep them honest'
|-
| Abolish Slavery
| Major Principle
| As an ex-slave she has ''some opinions'' on this.  ...explaining the implications of demon-binding to her might not be the best idea.
|-
| Immaculate Order
| Major Tie
| They destroyed the cult she used to be a slave of, after all
|-
| Anathema are awful demon-things
| Minor Negative principle
| More than a bit congitively dissonant - she needs to deal with this
|-
| Demons
| Minor Negative Tie
| She has a bit of a grudge, but it wasn't demons that held her in thrall
|-
| The Guild
| Minor Negative Tie
| They trained and sold her, but a lot of her early life was kind of a blur so she's not sure
|-
| Order is good
| Minor Principle
| Obviously, she's a lawbreaker of many kinds, but she appreciates that society needs to function and there are lines not to cross
|-
| What I want, I take
| Minor Principle
| Now that she has power, she has the power to take the things she wants, even if they're not really hers
|-
| Wheat
| Minor Tie
| She appreciates being able to eat and stuff on their journey
|-
| 108
| Minor Tie
| Oooooh, pretty
