Ianthe Naberius
Ianthe Tridentarius, "Deathwarden" NAME
Female SEX/GENDER
The Locked Tomb CANON
Epilogue of Nona the Ninth CANONPOINT


HISTORY
Tridentarii
Upon reaching age six, it became apparent that Ianthe's older twin sister, Coronabeth, did not have any necromantic ability. Because of this, Ianthe had to become enough of a necromancer for both of them to continue the illusion their father had crafted of them both being adepts. To preserve this lie, the twins were homeschooled and much of Ianthe's life now became about covering for Coronabeth's deficiencies instead of celebrating her own growing genius.
Saint of Awe
Upon being summoned by the Emperor to Canaan House to compete against the other House scions to become a lyctor, Ianthe reverse engineered the mega-theorem necessary to achieve Lyctorhood. Killing her own Cavalier, Naberius Tern, in order to consume his soul was a necessary part of the process, and Ianthe didn't hesitate to murder him, demonstrating the lengths she was willing to go for power. She was the first of the postulants to do so, revealing Coronabeth's lie, and allowing Ianthe to finally step into the spotlight.
Labotomies & Love
After becoming a Lyctor, Harrowhark came to Ianthe to help her perform brain surgery on herself that altered her memories of Gideon Nav. In the course of this event, Ianthe became subject to the Vow of the Sewn Tongue by Harrow which magically prevents her from speaking of what Harrow did to herself without doing some hardcore self-surgery to replace the ensorcelled body parts . This was also when she obtained the Favor of the Chain from Harrowhark which will allows her to call upon Harrow for anything she wants to repay the debt owed. It supersedes any other debt Harrow may owe another, including the Emperor. This deep entanglement and connection brought about Ianthe's desire to eventually marry Harrowhark.
God's Salvation
When betrayal inevitably happened to the Emperor by two of his original lyctors, the Emperor was on the edge of death as he struggled against one of the betrayers. Ianthe made the choice to save the Emperor and let the betrayer die insteaad. Not only did this choice uphold the oath of fealty she'd just sworn to the Emperor, it put him in her debt and secured her a much, much better spot at his side in her ever continual climb for power.


ABILITIES
NECROMANCY Ianthe is an adept capable of utilizing and manipulating the energies of life (thalergy) and death (thanergy). She is capable of all three schools of necromantic magic - flesh, spirit, and bone, in that order - having a specialization in both her House's traditional Animaphilia (cannibalization of thanergy from corpses) but also a personal specialization in large scale energy transference allowing her to cannibalize thalergy from living bodies. Ianthe had demonstrated the ability to animate corpses from very far away and puppet them as though she was possessing the body.
LYCTOR
  • Immortality - Though still capable of being killed, Ianthe no longer ages and will live in perpetuity until she is destroyed.
  • Regeneration - Lyctors are incredibly hard to kill as the body quickly repairs any damage taken. Completely severed limbs will not regenerate, and beheading will kill a lyctor. For example, Ianthe was unable to cut off her own arm as her body regenerated it too quickly.
  • Cavalier Soul - Through the process of achieving lyctorhood, Ianthe used the mega-theorem known as The Eightfold Word to consume her cavalier's soul. This soul serves as a renewable internal source of thanergy so that she doesn't run out, can use necromancy in space, or on planets that do not produce thanergy. Her eyes changed color upon taking Naberius' soul to match his, and his skill with the sword was now hers. Because of his soul, when Ianthe's spirit enters the River (liminal dimension of death where ghosts reside) her body can still defend itself.
  • River Magic - Lyctors can enter the River and use it to travel vast distances quickly while maintaining their sanity for up to seven minutes while swarmed by ghosts. Not available in setting.
  • Lyctor Senses - Ianthe can sense the life-force of other beings, though she cannot sense other lyctors.
  • SKELETAL ARM Ianthe's right arm is completely skeletal and gold in color except for a pad of flesh on her palm to allow her to grip a sword. Unable to regenerate the arm she lost in battle against another lyctor, she originally crafted an inferior replacement that interfered with her sword skill. Harrowhark Nonagesimus forced the bone to regrow and crafted it to function without all the fleshy bits. Ianthe added the flesh pad herself and altered the color for a better aesthetic.

    MONSTER
    Mimic (Niez)
    A mostly featureless female form of blackened semi-coagulated blood over a golden skeleton with blue eyes bearing glowing golden flecks.

    The Mimic slowly takes on the physical form of the person in front of it, reproducing powers used on it and even the person's voice. It seeks to get close and touch the person's face, sending an inky substance into orifices, revealing its skeleton in the process. It will also expose skeleton while sending thin line of blackness along ground/across walls to then crawl up legs seeking entrance.

    Once penetrated, victims are immediately thrust psychically into quick, intense, mid-fuck sex with an undetermined 'entity' that can fluctuate between male/female and posseses any sexual organs needed until victim orgasms. The victim then finds themselves standing where they had been, an unknown amount of time passed, exhausted, and leaking an inky cum-like substance from where the Mimic entered the victim. It is capable of engaging multiple victims at a time though it can only take on one duplicate form at a time.

    The Mimic is indestructible except when taking on the form of another. Only then can that specific person kill it making them essentially kill themselves. In seeking an identity, the Mimic becomes vulnerable. While transformed, Ianthe has no access to her own necromancy.
