Bellrine
The Champion of Ruin
Bellrine is a kobold that was a hunter for Her dungeon. After the destruction of Her dungeon's Core, She desired revenge against those that destroyed Her home. Upon finding the adventurers that committed the act, She assaulted one with ruinous magics. This was Nicodemus Mohr, the Icon of War, who of which suffered an injury to His heart. This injury could not easily be healed and had taken years off of His life. Bellrine was captured, and was eventually able to accept the reasons why Nicodemus and His adventuring squad destroyed the Core. Her mount is recognized as being a Drake.
Dogma
Bellrine is a very impassioned Champion. With this came the eventual love and appreciation of Nicodemus and the War Vultures. Her camaraderie with the War Vultures eventually gave way into Her developing bonds with each of them. However, Her passions in life had always been plagued by Her aura of ruin. Time's Hold, the plane of ruin, had bled into Her body and decays everything around Her. With this knowledge, Bellrine always found forging relationships and bonds to be difficult. And thus, this is where Bellrine often finds Herself making the tough decision to leave when those She cares for are at risk of Her presence.
Gaining Favor or Redemption
To gain favor with Bellrine, worshippers must have an awareness that their presence can become too dangerous for those around them and leave when they can. If one were to overstay and cause destruction to those around them, then favor is lost. Redemption is only found through remembrance of those that were lost due to attachment.
Interactions with the world
Worshippers of Garnet tend to develop the conflicted emotional traits that Bellrine is known for; the desire to connect with others, and the apprehension of leaving when everything seems too surreal to be true. With this comes the constant emotional distress that worshippers of Bellrine will suffer through. Worshippers of Bellrine have been known to enforce amongst other worshippers avoiding attachment and only be self-reliant so as to not cause emotional harm. Surprisingly, many Cores enjoy having Bellrine worshippers as they will focus more on their tasks and objectives as opposed to caring for each of their companions. This tends to lead to a more depressive, but efficient, environment for adventurers to have to fight through.
