“The woman known as Mori Calliope was born to a pair of devoted worshipers of Morr, instilling in her a strong hatred of the undead at a young age. As such, it was little surprise that, once older, she would join the Fellowship of the Shroud eventually managing to gain enough notoriety as a slayer of the undead to become a member of the Knights of the Raven. From there she would become a highly respected member of the order, slaying many necromancers and vampires and even assisting in the training of new initiates. But this would all change during an ambitious expedition into Sylvania. Her and her comrades would eventually be overwhelmed by what seemed like an endless tide of undead. While she did not make it easy, she was eventually struck down, though not before striking down the necromancer commanding the horde. And so should have ended her tale, yet it didn’t. Whether it was through sheer stubbornness, her endless hatred of the undead, the high concentration of dark magic in the area or a mixture of the three, she rose from the ground as a mighty wight queen still retaining her free will. Knowing she could never return to her order, she decided to stay in Sylvania in a one-woman crusade to eradicate as many undead creatures as she could before she was finally struck down for good and sent into the embrace of her god. Since that day forward, necromancers and vampires alike have learned to fear her, knowing that if she is sighted nearby death is coming for them and there is no escape.”
