Name: Sister Margaux
Age: 20
Gender: Female

Appearance:

Curse: Coldhearted
Sister Margaux is a coldhearted beauty. Whenever she exhales, her breath is freezing. If she were to breathe upon a flower, the petals would wither and form ice on the edges. If she embraces something, the entity will gradually become partly frozen.

Her skin is ice cold, yet does not appear frozen. In direct sunlight, her skin would appear crystallized, similarly to how light reflects off a sheet of ice. Quick to become frozen, Margaux does not die from freezing. She does not have much feelings, and there is something sinister about her.

History: Sister Margaux was a nun of her village abbey, and was known for her piety and fervour. Her family comes from a lineage of executioners and torturers, who had to know martial arts to constrain criminals awaiting their doom. Rather than be paid for such work, Margaux vowed a life of poverty.

One of her ancestors, Mercadier, intended to execute Mirvina via his favorite manner: hanged, drawn and quartered. However, the flames got to the witch first, much to Mercadier’s disappointment and anger. If there is a reason why the descendents of Morvina’s killers are so few, well, it may be because of Mercadier, who had then turned his attention on his own comrades. The very scythes he used, what has been part of his family for countless generations, now belong to Margaux.

Anything else: Despite her spiritual, religious lifestyle, Sister Margaux is a trained (and experienced) executioner, torturer and martial artist, involved in these crafts since childhood, which she treated as a religion with relentless ecstasy. Her tools consist of scythes: blades as elegant as they are frightening, suitable for her work.

Margaux’s robes hide an unnerving sight of her: everywhere underneath her attire, her skin is covered with self-inflicted scars, the scarification arranged in intricate designs, shapes she has been playing with for as long as she can remember. She is, undoubtedly, artistically sadomasochistic.

Village name: Oradour-sur-Glane

Description: A village and abbey are present in-between a forest and river, with meadows elsewhere. Like Delrig, Oradour-sur-Glane is abandoned. However, unlike Delrig, Oradour-sur-Glane has constant winter: there is always snow, ice, and chilling winds. Several years ago, the village was hit by a snap freeze, and remains in such a state.

Amidst the icicles in the trees, human skins and the hides of farm animals are stretched in the branches, frozen faces sleeping in a grimace. It seems that the skins of families are together. Littered underneath the snow are flayed, frozen bodies of people and animals, always dismembered, beheaded, and disemboweled.

How could such a holy nun have such a dark fall from God? Sometimes, true evil can be found in holiness.

Bio

Name: Fridur Pace
Age: 18
Gender: Male

Appearance: At about 5ft 6 with short, fair hair Fridur looks unassuming. Although something seems disturbed about his startlingly dark eyes.

His slightly tattered attire consists of a white shirt, and a firebrick coloured sleeveless jacket, with black boots and dark brown breeches fastened with a brown leather belt, on which is sheathed a hunting knife with a bone handle, his only reminder of home.

Curse: Savage Mind - If someone tells Fridur to kill, hurt or destroy anyone or anything, his eyes glaze over, falling into a trance, and he loses all self-control, flying into a wild rampage in which he will relentlessly pursue his task. The only way the trance will break is if he succeeds, falls unconscious, or is killed.

History: Fridur grew up in a hunting settlement nestled between gaunt pine forests and mountains. He had a fairly average childhood living here, learning the trade and training with his knife and the bow. However this could only last so long. With everything seeming so normal, his parents had assumed that the Witch’s curse hadn’t worked, but one day, he can’t remember exactly what happened - one of the other kids dared him to do something. All he can recall is that he seemed to black out for a while. When he awoke he was miles from home, somewhere he’d never been, with blood staining his clothes.

Anything else:

Village

Village name: Culcraig
Description: An isolated hunting village in a hollow between forested and mountainous land, Culcraig gets few visitors and is little talked about. This is no surprise, as it only houses some 20 or so people. It appears unremarkable, although one house is uninhabited. Supposedly the Paces, who were involved in hunting the witch Myrvina, lived here, but if you ask about any of it people scurry away into their houses and refuse to talk.

Breath of Life

A soft, long exhale,
Roses freeze, their petals die,
Thus, icebound harvest.

Margaux sits in a frozen garden, admiring and enjoying flowers, scythes stabbed into the frosty ground. Simply by smelling the flowers, stroking them, breathing on them, sitting next to them, her presence gradually turns the pretty things into icicles. Icebound petals look so perfect.

Sometimes, a curse is a blessing in disguise.
