Jericho

Jericho was born into the chaos that is Falgor. From the time she was born, she was in a fight to survive, as the monsters roamed the land. Still, as far as a Falgan can be, she was happy and safe. So long as she was careful to lock the doors at night and make sure to throw salt over her shoulders, she'd be fine.   When she was ten, a brood of Vampires attacked her town. That's when she first saw Exorcists in action. Fighting monsters with naught but swords, maces, and spears, calling upon divine light to heal the wounded, and pushing back what seemed to the young Jericho as the embodiment of fear itself, the Exorcists made their impression. No sooner had they left than she had decided to be one.   It wasn't too long before she was able to join the Izaric Church, and begin training. As is turned out, she had an innate skill for it, taking to the combat especially easily. She came to find out that this was a result of her being a Seraph, when she awakened her divinity during a training hunt, vaporizing the Demon instead of casting a binding spell.   In time, she learned to control her Seraphic nature, becoming one of the best Exorcists in Falgor. She longed to meet one of the famed Kalistradi Exorcists. She had heard they were the real elite, getting to study on the same soil as the great St. Izaros. When she finally did meet one, she was hardly disappointed. However, she did come to realize that the stories she heard were greatly exaggerated, as only Hawthorne was able to meet her expectations. She also came to realize that she was actually on par with him, exceeding the skills of the other Kalastradi.   In time, she fell in love with Hawthorne, marrying him. She didn't think she could be any happier, saving the world from darkness with her husband by her side. However, she ended up sidelined for a time when she discovered she was pregnant.   While leaving her role as an Exorcist was hard, Jericho was overjoyed to be a mother. However, when her baby was born with snow-white skin, the stub of a tail, and little nubs where horns would begin to grow in, nestled in her lavender hair, it became very obvious that something was up. She confronted Hawthorne, learning the truth about everything. Not only was his name actually Cage Renfield, but their entire marriage, he had been sworn in a pact with the Demon, Vizenia. Jericho was furious, though not for any of the reasons Cage believed. Unfortunately, she never got the chance to explain to him, as he was gone the following morning.   Jericho tried for a year to raise her daughter, Amelie, by herself, but trouble came knocking when a young woman with golden hair came to her door. The two had tea, but things turned when the woman tried to steal Amelie. Jericho went ballistic, but the woman revealed herself to be a Demon, striking Jericho in the eye and knocking her out. When she came to, the Demon and Amelie were gone.   Now, she's consumed by regret and rage. She may be an even better Exorcist than before she retired, but she is a shell of herself.
