Divine Rogue Hetepheres

Lore

Hetepheres opened her eyes to a new world, one where the material and immaterial seemed to merge together and yet stay apart. She could see the magical power around her grow and fade in moments, like precious stones that lay about. Yet the strangest thing were the cat-spirits that seemed drawn to her, each bearing little gifts to her side before departing. Scraps of bread, freshly killed fish, small bolts of cloth and other items were laid at her feet, no matter where she stayed. At first she found it amusing, but then she realized how serious the situation was when they began to lead her to those who needed her help in the absence of law and order. It seemed that a man had assumed the role of judge, jury, and executioner in the aftermath of the God-King's death, with many of those whose situations fell through the cracks of justice feeling hopeless. As the priestess who aided his efforts disappeared, the executions came to a standstill, and criminals took the opportunity to steal whatever they could from the people. Hetepheres was forced to become a guardian of the city, with the ethereal cats guiding her steps as she became a shadowy force of justice. Soon, every lowlife and scumbag feared the sound of her twin chakrams whistling through the air, and some even swore that a cat-like deity was watching her every move. She paid them no heed - she had bigger things to worry about, like the increasing flood of refugees who claimed that the vengeful dead were coming to life and the monsters that were closing in on the city...
