Appearance

Lyssa is a vision of dangerous beauty. She is human with pale skin and piercing eyes, nearly entirely covered in intricate, swirling black ink tattoos. Her clothing is aggressively minimal, consisting of black leather bandoleers, fishnet stockings, and functional yet revealing straps that serve as harness points for her many hidden blades.

Mannerisms

Lyssa constantly plays with her heavy obsidian earrings and maintains intense, unblinking eye contact during conversation.

Personality

Lyssa is coldly charismatic and utterly sociopathic. She views the act of murder as a performative art form and enjoys the psychological collapse of her victims as much as their physical end. She speaks with a soft, melodic voice that conceals the absolute malice of her intent.

Ideals

Artistry. The process of the kill must be aesthetically perfect and emotionally resonant.

Bonds

My skin is my canvas. Each drop of ink represents a secret I have taken from the world.

Flaws

Narcissism. I believe I am superior to every living soul and occasionally let my targets live longer than necessary just to watch them admire my work.

Quirks

Traces the lines of her arm tattoos when she is bored.
Whispers to the corpses of her victims as if they are still listening.

Background

Lyssa Vane emerged from the shadowed gutters of Atrix, transforming herself from a common thief into the city's most feared serial killer. She discovered early that her physical beauty was a more effective weapon than any blade, allowing her to get close to the most powerful figures in the city before carving her mark into their flesh. She considers every tattoo on her body a chapter of her legacy, a secret stolen from the heart of a person she has unmade. She eventually joined the College of Whispers not for the music, but to master the art of turning a victim's own mind into a lethal weapon. Her signature is the lack of a signature. She leaves no witnesses, only beautifully posed remains that look more like marble statues than corpses. In Atrix, she is a ghost story told in high society parlors, a shadow in fishnets and ink that haunts the dreams of the wealthy and the wicked.
