Aurelia is a tall, striking drow woman with obsidian skin, long silver-white hair, and luminous crimson eyes flecked with violet. Delicate spiderweb markings extend from her temples across her cheeks, appearing almost like sacred tattoos. She wears blackened chain mail beneath a deep crimson tabard, a silver spider holy symbol at her throat, and a curved sabre at her hip. Her beauty is refined and unsettling, made more dangerous by the calm, appraising expression she wears when judging the guilty.

Aurelia is poised, observant, and intensely persuasive. She speaks with priestly certainty even when improvising, treating every conversation as an interrogation and every silence as evidence. She genuinely wants to expose corruption, but she is fascinated by fear and has difficulty distinguishing righteous judgment from personal vengeance.

Aurelia Malice was born beneath a moonless sky in a cavern where the stone itself was veined with pale spider silk. Her mother was a high priestess who claimed that Lolth had sent a mortal daughter into the world as an instrument of divine correction. Before Aurelia could walk, she was taken from her birth chamber and raised within the temple, where priestesses taught her that beauty was a weapon, devotion was a leash, and mercy was a privilege reserved for those who could afford it. She learned the liturgies of the Spider Queen, the secret signs of temple inquisitors, and the patient handling of venomous spiders.
