Atropos is a psychopomp usher who determines when each mortal will die and judges the most difficult of souls: those of dead children. As the Judge of Judges, only Pharasma has greater powers of arbitration over the fate of mortal souls than Atropos. She is the youngest daughter of Pharasma, called the Last Sister (though few know of her older sisters), and rumoured to be Pharasma's chosen successor in the next incarnation of reality.12

Home

Atropos lives with her mother in Pharasma's Palace and shares her realm there; she also holds control over the courts and portals in the Boneyard.1

Appearance

Atropos is a wolf-sized nosoi wearing a silver mask, with a long peacock tail with an eye for every soul she will ever judge. In her mother's court, she sometimes appears as a young human girl.1
