• Description

  If she didn't posses so many unusual physical abnormalities, the first thing that would usually be noticed about her was that she was a very large, imposing woman. Though she didn't approach the level of a body-builder, she had a strong, solid build toned to near perfection. Furthermore, she was proportionate, strong legs to support her built torso and arms.
  
  Unfortunately, she did have several traits that were likely to earn horrified gasps from any who might observe her. Two spiralled rams horns sprouted from her brow beneath silken raven looks, a shining onyx shade helped make them more or less impossible to conceal. Even more disturbing, she had eyes reminiscent of a goat, yellow in hue with a long horizontal pupil. The final of her deformities might at first have been mistaken for face paint, the sort a black-metal performer might favour, completely stark white with two slices of black around her eyes and an upside down crucifix almost dangling from her forehead. A mere touch would reveal it was not paint at all.
  
  As far as her wardrobe went, it was not nearly so spectacular as the woman herself, she favoured worn and ripped jeans and black t-shirts. Black was, after all, her colour.

• History

  The woman who eventually rechristened herself Lamashtu lived an unremarkable and completely poverty haunted life. Since childhood she would constantly have to question where her next meal was coming from, and thievery became the best answer to that particular question. Especially when she fully grew into her body and was able to bully even the larger boys for their lunches.
  
  This sort of life wasn't enough for her, she wanted to live a dangerous and exciting life. Her love affair with the occult began during the height of the satanic ritual abuse moral panic. While she was far too young to understand the implications of the things she was doing and learning, that didn't particularly matter to her. What attracted her to Satanism in the first place was the panic surrounding it, she enjoyed the idea of doing something the majority of people found horrifying. She was flagrantly aggressive with her flirtations with other women for this same reason.
  
  Satanic ritual abuse was all nonsense, of course, nothing that she learned was real. It was her love of the forbidden that opened her heart to beings outside of this reality, desperately searching for any veil thin enough for them to penetrate into our existence. The deal was too tempting to resist, all she had to do was sacrifice her puritan, spineless father and she could learn REAL Satanic magic?
  
  She couldn't accept quickly enough. As for the current day, she squabbles with other warlocks for territory and battle demons with their own magic. Not because she knows or cares what they're after, but because she loves the thrill.
