Ⅰ

Vorasha the Ophidian is the most powerful of the harbingers (a pantheon of daemonic demigods capable of granting divine magic). She is a servant and sometimes lover of the Apocalypse Rider Trelmarixian.

Home

Vorasha's realm, the Writhing Palace, is a wing of the Withered Court, Trelmarixian's realm on Abaddon. This fecund garden is infested with serpents from the entire Great Beyond, and no one knows precisely what transpires within.

Appearance

Vorasha appears as a meladaemon with draconic scales and scarlet-and-emerald snakes for hair.

Relationships

Vorasha is the consort of Trelmarixian, and seeks to become a Rider in her own right. However, she is unaware of the infection of Trelmarixian's essence inside herself: he is aware of all of her actions and might have had a subtle influence on her rise to power.

Cults

Religious symbol

Vorasha's religious symbol is the head of a jackal encircled by an ouroboros, a snake eating its own tail.
