  • Our Lady the Blessed Saviour, also referred to as just The Lady and Blessed Lady, was worshipped as a goddess in the Lands of Fist as it was said that she protected the inhabitants from the dreaded Stormriders. Religious texts recorded that she was responsible for bringing her people to the virgin, unspoiled continent, and that she enlightened those primitives already there with flame and sword. The continent's indigenous people named her Shrikasmil, the Destroyer. The Lady controlled all access to warrens within Fist excepting tribes like the Drenn, who were beneath her notice, and the Marese, who looked to the sea and the mysteries of Ruse. Enemy mages who came to Fist were usually powerless. She also had direct control of the land, causing earthquakes, floods, rockslides, and sinkholes. The three most precious relics of the Lady (known as the Holy Trilogy) were kept in chests at The Hole on Ring Wall, the Sky Tower, and the Holy Cloister of Banith. The Korelri Chosen, also known as the Stormguard, were her most fanatical followere and guarded the Stormwall. Her priests were granted powers to dessicate their enemies and turn them to dust. They could also cast bursts of explosive energy. In times of great need, she endowed on her followers an aura of blue fire known as the "Lady's Grace" that granted them resistance from wounds. Her adherents wore a starburst symbol. The Lady rarely appeared in person, preferring instead to communicate by possessing and speaking through others. She once appeared as a gigantic out of proportion figure twice the size of a Jaghut. Reeking of rotting flesh and covered in open sores, she resembled a pale dead fish with vaguely female features and long greasy hair. Other than the Stromriders her primary antagonist was the Queen of Dreams who interfered with her attempts to divine the future and view her enemies.
