Appearance:
A young, thin drow dressed in ragged clothes unto which he has stitched on icons of eyes and charms to the Moon goddess, marks of his faith. A colorful scarf poking out from being tucked into his pocket, a habit from being from up spire where the risk of light is more present then down closer to the heart. When he is in in any area where the authorities may be he is always sure to wear his pair of dark glasses, when down in the heart though he takes them off revealing his pitch black eyes, a sign of His Glorious Lady's favor. He is unable to ever be still, constantly moving even when he is sitting down. He periodically shaves his head and his hair is currently about two finger widths long. When he is preoccupied with thought he runs his hand through his hair.

CORE
Not Yet: our willpower, fuelled with guilt, is legendary. Once per session, activate this ability to avoid suffering negative effects from Blood or Mind fallout for the remainder of the situation.
Ministrations: You offer solace and calm in a world of chaos. Once per session, lead your allies in a service of praise to the Moon Beneath (how you practice your faith is up to you). All player characters who took part can remove one Minor Blood or Mind fallout, or downgrade one Major Blood or Mind fallout to Minor, at the end of the service. If you perform this service whilst on a delve, add +D4 to the delve’s resistance.
MAJOR
Oath of Sagacity You have learned one of the secret names of Three-Fold Damnou, and when you speak it aloud your enemies are struck senseless by its power. The name of the Goddess functions as the following weapon: (Kill D6, Spread, Debilitating, Maddening, One-Shot).
MINOR
Incandescent Communion In the tear between worlds, She blessed you with night-black eyes that resonate with Her Eternal Light. Gain the Cursed domain. You can see in total darkness as though the area was illuminated by candle-light.
Liar's Burden: The moon beneath does not tolerate the wicked words of sinners. Gain the Discern skill. If you suspect an NPC is lying to you, roll Discern+Religion. On a success, if they were lying, they mark D4 stress; their mouth streams with blood as though they had attempted to chew on broken glass
The Left Hand of the Goddess: The faithful are a bountiful garden, and it is your task to excise disease and corruption at the root. Gain the Kill skill and +1 Blood Protection.
