Vad
The Parasitic Stalker
In the darkened hallways of the Coliseum, the walls suddenly begin to bleed red. The bones of the Coliseum protest the coward's presence, the pest and blight on the Warrior Goddess' tenets. Yet in the halls there is nothing to be seen... and then a brush of something slimy and warm. A jolt. A fat, slimy worm falls to the ground where it remains, wriggling in an unsightly manner. The silent halls close in. A chittering noise echoes throughout, otherworldly and foreboding. A noise that could not be created by a humanoid throat. Invisible, Vad creeps and stalks the halls of the Coliseum and perhaps it's better that way. The Parasitic Stalker is not of human origin with flesh composed of writhing worm-like tendrils, pockets of dark yellow-gray pus, and teeth that seem to move and "swim" amidst the confines of its gaping maw. Where there stands a proud and confident warrior willing to sacrifice for the weak and elevate heroes... there, too, is a cowardly stalker that delights in being unseen, in ripping apart the weak, and in dragging heroes down.
In Need of a Host
Vad requires a host to sustain himself for long periods of time, but finding an optimal host is difficult... and often results in Vad ripping himself out from within by breaking through the host's throat, spine, or ribcage. Most recently, Prince Elect Romello proved to be a host of equally questionable origins, deceptive character, and compromising morals to retain Vad in a dormant state for long periods of time with little harm.

Tenets of Faith
Pestilence of the Valiant – The coward's way is the only way. Deception is the key. Why risk one's own health and safety when threats can be removed easily from the shadows? So-called "heroes" can be toppled. In fact, they should be laid low. Bind them with chains in the shadows and drag them down to the depths. Show all how fragile the courage of Ragna is. How weak the strong are in the face of a shadowy foe.
Divine Goals & Aspirations
