Original Pitch

Though the Reclamation hosts many of the Primordials' greatest heroes, the abilities of none are so widespread as the Priestess of Cecelyne. For it is she, in her infinite compassion, who stayed behind during an attack on the Gunstar while it was strip mining a planet, and brought it back from the verge of death - the planet is a desert now, the local species are thriving thanks to the gifts of Cecelyne. And so it was this Priestess who showed the Primordials a tool they had been overlooking all along.

Even in the Gunstar, the Priestess finds herself slightly disheartened, as she feels Cecelyne slip through the cracks of the mortal territories. These people suffer under these traitors, and she is all too willing to provide. Sometimes a lost soul finds strange edible bugs while trapped in a collapsed tunnel, just enough to survive. Sometimes a mortal wishes to have power, influence, capacity, and they find themselves with their wish granted. Some mortals have taken this blessing they received and gone onto to even become Celestials. And the Priestess is happy for them, she likes having friends in high places.

Abilities: Focused most on the wish and substance charms

Expansion

Originally, she was always written to have a dark side, to be loyal to Cecelyne above all others. Nowadays, that's still true, but she's actually a very compassionate person underneath - the dark side is worse for her than anyone else.

Relationships

The Main Circle

• Roshan - Her liege. She follows without question, for a king and his people are one.
• Faredun - He is a figure of command, sure, but one she would only follow entirely out of obligation, and luckily for her he very rarely has any commands for others.
• Zirak - I'm not actually sure how much they interact, but I imagine she has very little connection to him, she's all business and compassion and he's neither!
• Emet - Likewise.
• Ashna? (SWLIHN) - They have a slight connection due to their loyalty, but Ashna follows it rationally while Densha follows it emotionally, so the two are aware of a disconnect and probably don't spend much time together outside of what's necessary.
• (The Kimberry) - Not even really part of the main circle anymore, but they probably don't have much of a relationship. She uses rather than really cares for relationships anyway, AND hates Roshan, so mild dislike or above if anything.

Others

• Above All Others - Unlikely to ever interact, but one she would probably follow well, above all others?
• Leviathan - As mentioned in the pitch, she probably has rescued planets from the Gunstar's irresponsibility. Leviathan likely really connects with her sympathy for foreign life before she's revealed to be a Titanic, and he'll probably see beyond that like any other label. It's even entirely possible she's his arm-candy for a bit, they could be like John and Yoko. BAGISM
• Ona? (The Elloge, feel free to rename) - This is a relationship I never entertained in the original pitch, but with the growth of her compassion she could envy the Elloge's heresy of abandoning the Titanics.
• Others
  • Possible - Qaf could possibly have a relationship due to faith/enlightment, Szoreny because of reflection, Hegra because of emotion. Cytherea because of motherly.
  • Stretching - Isidoros sees value on heroic will regardless of side.
  • Probably Not - The rest!
