"To reach the greatest heights precipitates a harrowsome fall. As a pillar of virtue, Dolores exemplified the values of her faith. Honor and honesty to a blunt degree under the beaming maiden.
As a champion of her goddess, she was granted the means to spread her light and the importance to matter in the world as a beacon of seething, cleansing and un-debatable truth, a fact which grew into bloated self importance and pride... and excess.

This glorious honour brought into the light of day her worst traits, her most violent impulses validated by the righteousness of her cause. Heavy handed methods came with innocent blood spilled, for too long ignored, tolerated out of convenience by an overworked deity with too large a domain to watch over.

When a new champion showed its potential, when a worthy replacement came to be however, the same goddess was all to eager to cast out her old toy for a brand new one and when Dolores found herself captured, restrained and praying upon her master to grant her the strength to overcome great odds... the former champion only found the pain of the whip, the agony of the pike and the dread mere pliers could induce.

Broken and alone, she endured, tortured for months as she clung to her faith, hoping for a whisper, a glimmer of hope. Through the pain, zealotry and pride turned to bitterness and bile. Through the pain and its terrifying anticipation, she found the strength to endure and overcome her condition.

So hide, those who spurned her. Cower and beg you up-start heroes standing for your beliefs. Flinch and cry as you await the whip for you have never known fear until you have known her."

Alright, back into a reasonable posting rate i promise, starting with Doooolores, topaz dragonborn because gem dragonborns are still toooo few in numbers. Other gem dragonborns are coming to complete my quintade.

Little note for those who would have soooomehow read it all until this point, i am ending the free adopt, one per person policy i've kept for so long. Might've gotten bored by it.

i will still do adopts, lift the adoptable per person limit but keep it really limited to people i'm at least somewhat friendly with. so if you fall on that category and are interested or have a close friend who'd be interested, don't hesitate to give me a boop.
