Menotherian
(chaotic, extraplanar, herald, shapechanger)
Menotherian1 is the embodiment of lust and vengeance and the herald of the goddess Calistria.234 She appears as either a wasp, a bear-sized wasp, or as a beautiful unblemished elf24 of any gender.2
Menotherian is very curious about mortals, especially elves, joining revels and taking a new lover for a night. Being an embodied servant of Calistria, this curiosity is a secondary interest that hides her unhesitating use of any devious means to forward Calistria's will, even to murder and consume her current favorite plaything without hesitation.4
After some of Menotherian's lustful dalliances with mortals, she has given birth to offspring, usually elves resembling fey-touched, empyreans, or cambions, though some have enough magic in them to be born as members of Calistria's succubus-like divine servitor race,5 including Velvet Wing, one of Menotherian's direct offspring.2
