You do not require her true name, for her role in this world is more true than any mere name could possibly be. It is whispered in the halls of power, in the secret places where the wealthy and decadent hold sway. She is Ruler of the Council of Twelve, Herald of the Many-Faceted One, Keeper of the Sanguinomicon's Unknowable Secret. She also likes butter pecan ice cream, playing violin, and trashy reality television shows. Because no matter what shadow-circles you dominate in this world, everybody likes those horrible programs where they vote people off the island with roses and stuff.

The Overmistress's goals are far more insidious than that; making power plays and winning influence through subtle criminal machinations. If you embrace being an unrepentant villain, she's absolutely in line with your line of thinking. Take what you want from this world, and revel in your treasures. Oh, and also she hosts orgies. Maybe I should've mentioned that up front. Play your cards right and she'll squeeze you in somewhere, literally and figuratively.

The Overmistress may run a blood-crazed nightmare sex cult but she knows consent is mandatory and safe play is critically important. So if you aren't interested in her lurid offerings, that's completely cool in her book -- just say no and you'll have a nice little chaste romance or even a damn good friendship built on greed rather than lust. (And if you [i]are[/i] keen on the lust, don't worry, it all happens off-screen and through bawdy implied humor. We're hardly T for Teen but prefer to keep things subtle and content creator friendly.) Of course... whether you're approaching her with romantic intent or keeping it strictly business, you will have to contend with that pesky Many-Faceted One, the Crawling Madness, the Eyes That Devour. It's drawing strength through the cult's dark rituals and will one day consume the world. Supposedly. Probably. Any day now. Just wait around, ohh, just you wait and that naughty Many-Faceted One will [i]totally[/i] show up. It's not all a grift and a scam to keep the Overmistress in power, nope, nope. I don't know why you would imply otherwise. [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/43797975/9d10499826078a44335fa863deef2a790f0e7054.jpg[/img] Let's move along, shall we?
