The third child is the tallest, and the oldest, a noble-looking girl of 13 years of age. She has long, straight black hair, and her head and nose drips black blood. Her eyes are wild, one lazy and badly unfocused, and her mouth sags at one side. She was a Shogunate princess, loved and doted upon to her every whim by her parents. She was spoiled rotten, and would never take no for an answer, and such was her death. Denied something she longed for, she threw a tantrum that lasted two days, until an aneurysm in her brain caused her instant and sudden death. She represents the Emperor's Conviction, and when he refuses to give up, or when interrogating, or when commanding someone to do something, she speaks for him. As such, he uses this ghost a lot, and her strong but malicious voice has worn on most his servants.
The last is a very quite little boy in a brown burlap robe who keeps close to the Emperor if he can. He was a young Immaculate alter boy in a far flung Threshold temple, and the daily stresses of managing the conversion of barbarians drove the three monks who watched him to let out their tension with the loyal altar boy. He was abused badly, in ways clearly not approved of in the Immaculate Texts, until one monk began to try deeply sinful sexual experiments on the boy. Finding himself not stricken down instantly by his sin, the monk told his fellows, and convinced them, equally maddened by the Wyld, to try their hand at the poor boy that was taught to keep his mouth shut about what they did with him in the dark of night. He died in silence, choking to death on rather unpleasant juices. He speaks for the Emperor's Temperance and when he needs to put a leash on his excesses, even his other more violent Virtue-Children, or those of his deathknights, the silent lad speaks up with a wavering voice and a tear in his eye. |
