Shattered Eternity: Hadley's Tale [LGBT HIGH FANTASY EPOCH]
Faux Synder for Priestess Melora
Priestess Melora (Voice range: Mid-Low, cold and commanding)
Race: Human (Touched by The Slaver)
Affiliation: The Cult of Chains
Titles: Voice of Obedience, Black Thorn, Chainmother
Alignment: Lawful Evil
A quiet terror wrapped in velvet ritual, Priestess Melora is the iron whisper of The Slaver’s will. Her sermons are symphonies of subjugation, her eyes as cold as the chains she bears. Unlike zealots who foam with passion, Melora's devotion is methodical, a calculated submission to power she deems divine.
She moves through rituals like a blade through silk—precise, elegant, lethal. Her presence suffocates resistance, not with violence, but with inevitability. The faithful follow her out of awe, the enslaved obey her out of dread. Her voice never rises. It doesn't have to. The weight of The Slaver's doctrine echoes in every syllable.
Melora believes in structure. In obedience. In the order of pain. Mercy, to her, is a gift wasted on the weak. Her rise within the Cult of Chains is a testament to her ruthless clarity of purpose and her unshakable conviction that freedom is a flaw best corrected.
Known Deeds:

(soft, yet menacing) "You are nothing, mongrel. Nothing but a servant to The Slaver. Your pain feeds his strength. Your suffering is your only purpose."
(calm, almost soothing, which only makes it more unsettling) "You will kneel before The Slaver and embrace your purpose. You will serve, or you will break. The choice, if you can call it that, is yours."
(with a hint of disappointment, like a mother scolding a child) "Disobedience is such a waste. I had hoped you would learn... but some lessons require a firmer hand."
