Scytheus/Qilana
After a few years of lusting after Ten-Thousand shining Orchids in futility, Lupin V got the hint and moved on to other women. Among them, one stole his heart as easily as he steals jade coins. This buxom brunette was named Qilana. Her voice was sultry and feminine (as far as vocal tone, think Anna Nichole-Smith). A fiesty, and admittedly high maintenance girl, she would accept only the best Lupin had to give and then demand a step beyond. But for the professed appreciation Lupin would receive, "Hell, it's worth it!"
Qilana excels in the use of small, concealable weapons, i.e. daggers, hand crossbows, garrotte wire, etc. They're more "lady-like" in her opinion. However, as is well known by Qilana, her best weapon is her beauty. Though her skill at seduction may not be exactly as well honed as Resplendant Dreams of Seraphim's, they are as good as any mortal woman can hope for. Many a time Qilana has been known to captivate the entire male audience of a room. And she is quite able to keep that attention as long as certain Exalteds don't flex their metaphysical sensuality.
While able to manipulate men (possibly women as well, though she has never deemed to try) with notable skill, she is not as assured a combatant. Many times Lupin has had to bail Qilana out of an unwanted "relationship" when her pouty lips wrote a check her ample derrier couldn't cash. Though she may not show it (pride, who knows), she is grateful for Lupin's protection. When he finally proposed to her, she accepted claiming "...After all, the arrangement would be beneficial for both of us". And in a way, she may be right. Besides, behind every great man, stands a great woman. And, as Qilana often quotes:
"I am all woman".
What she never told Lupin, mainly out of fear, is that she once belonged to a cult. It was called, TheCultOfTheOubliette. In a genuine effort to assure Lupin's safety against TheBlasphemousKinder, she invoked a ritual assisted by a man named Scytheus. However, an accident during the ritual consigned her name to Oblivion, leaving her a catatonic shell of what she was. Lupin is now determined to find a way to recover her name. At any cost!
