  Titles: The Kitsune Queen, The Immortal Fox, The Grand Sorceress, Mother of Monsters, Grand Shapechanger, The Fox-eared Tyrant, The Lady of Progress, The Dominator   Favored Weapon: Odachi   Alignment: Lawful Evil   Church Moniker: The Ninefold Tribunal   Obedience: Draw a circle around you on the ground with a mixture of paint or charcoal that includes at least some of your own blood, recently harvested. Inscribe a prayer to The Dominator with that same mixture along the inside of the circle. Once complete, offer up prayers to her glory for one hour that you may be accepted into her cycle of divine rebirth while inscribing her holy symbol on your skin above your heart.   Effect: You become capable of seeing the souls of those nearby - whether they possess them, what beings may have a grip on them, where they are fated to go after death, and similar information about them(This information is typically presented to you via stylized caricatures on or around their souls to represent this information). As an immediate action when a creature within 30ft of you dies, you can force them to make a save(DC based on your highest mental stat) or have their souls consigned to The Dominator and her divine cycle of rebirth - thus preventing the target from returning to life by any means short of true resurrection, miracle, or divine intervention.

Tenets of Faith

All things in Order. Eliminate Chaos wherever it is found and bring Order in its place. Stand in defense of Order and those who ascribe to it, even if either are unjust.
 
Obedience and Adherence. Give obedience where it is due, adhere to the Order of society, and bring change slow but true. Live well in this life to be rewarded in the next.
 
Plot and Plunder. Advance your agendas subtly and ruthlessly - others are pawns in the game of your ascension. Crush and squash he who steps foolishly out into the open.
 
Secure your Dominion. Protect that which you own, govern, or control at all costs. Look after your homefront before all else, and never do wrong by those who answer to you until they give you cause.
 
Foster Monstrosity. True perfection lies beyond the bounds of a normal existence - nurture monsters where they can be found, teach them the ways of The Dominator, and help them overcome their nature.
 
Birthrights are supreme. Those born with power stand above the common rabble. Foster, nurture, and respect the seeds of sorcery, bloodlines, and mighty birthrights of all kinds and cultivate power through inheritance - such is the mark of true nobility.

History

Chosen and uplifted by Tamamo centuries ago, Mislith was once a Rune Giant Matron who led her tribe into conquest of various portions of The Ursidae Dynasties, slowly and insidiously conquering village and city both until they were finally stopped in a notoriously bloody war which saw Mislith turn on her own tribe after Tamamo herself descended to persuade her of the error of her tribe's ways.   So persuaded, Mislith abandoned her people and saw them for what they were, embracing the truth of her new savior as she took up the mantle of Herald to her new Goddess...and in time, the two would become close friends as Mislith would rise entirely of her own enormous merit to become the Imperator and Leader of Tamamo's church, the Ninefold Tribunal. They are both close friends as two unfathomably powerful beings who almost nothing in common with most life, and Mislith serves her Tamamo faithfully and with loyalty, crushing the enemies of her faith and assisting her followers wherever she goes as she leads The Tribunal with a brutal but orderly hand in service to the being she now sees as the epitome of what her people once strove to be: Brutal Warlords with an absolute vice grip on all lesser races.   Mislith is one of the few people allowed free access to Tamamo's Citadel in Kitsune to converse with the Goddess herself, and is known to receive her orders and commands from her and her alone.

History

One of the few men of The Eastern Imperium to catch the eye of The Kitsune Queen herself, Targutai Shao was the foremost up and coming warrior and leader in the old days of The Ursidae Dynasties...his martial might was peerless and his wisdom as well as his tactical and martial genius was so abundant that he was a genius all but unmatched in his prime.   During this prime of his life as he conquered enemy after enemy and eventually took the seat of Shogun, he soon caught the eye of Tamamo herself...and as the foremost hero of the entire Ursini people and a rapidly growing living legend, it came as a surprise to no one when Tamamo quietly called him to her Citadel in Kitsunheim.   What happened in that citadel exactly none shall ever know, but the two became close friends and even lovers shortly afterwards, siring several children together and enjoying each others company until Targutai's duties soon carried him home...but this time, with his signature shining golden fur, said to be proof of the undying love he shares with his queen and goddess, and the promise she is said to have made to him:  

You shall know no mortal wound, no fatal blow, nor any sadness or ailment so long as my love for you remains...So long as your fur shines golden, symbol of my love, naught but time itself shall fell the mighty Targutai.

History

As one of the most legendarily lecherous men in the modern world, Barkhan the Eternal has long been known as a layabout and a hedonist who seeks physical pleasure and excitement in all sorts of places and in all sorts of ways...and to many, it came as no surprise that the chiefmost target of his lecherous attention was Tamamo-No-Mae, Queen of the Imperium.   With his overwhelming magical power, Barkhan often breaks through the wards on Tamamo's divine palace and breaks inside to seek her out and tease and torment her, eager to get a chance to get romantically involved with her...however, despite his overwhelming power, Tamamo often catches the unfortunate Lich-King and enacts countless cruel and innovative punishments upon him. She has tortured him for years on end, shrunk him and ground him into paste, detonated him with magic, and has even polymorphed him into various articles of clothing that she has burned, locked away, and even worn on occasion...yet, each time she kills him, he simply returns to life to torment her more, to her eternal fury.

History

Though many speculate Lucius may have known Tamamo since even before The Unification War, all that is known for sure is their relationship now, which is seemingly nothing more than a son who is grateful he has finally found a home and a family who he doesn't despise. He cares for his mother and his adoptive siblings, and likewise they have grown to care for their eldest brother in turn.   He has an incredibly close relationship with his mother, one closer and more special than any other relationship his mother has with anyone, even her own children...though in what ways, none can say.

Absolute power drives absolute progress.
