Midnight

Midnight of Kossuth was a cleric of Kossuth who received flaming visions from her god directing her to locate and control the ancient artifact known as The Crown of Empyrosis. Why Midnight was the selected vessel for these visions would not be clear for nearly a year in an epic tale involving love and loss known as Ancients Alive.

History[edit | edit source]

After receiving her first visions, Midnight stumbled through the dark and flame-less streets of Galik and burst into the tavern known as The Cloak and Stagger, collapsing on the floor in front of Edna, Tigger, and Rosamund. The beautiful Pendant draped around her neck was enchanted to keep anyone from taking it off her body, and as soon as she was brought to, she cryptically explained that the city was in danger if they couldn't locate the Crown. She explained the pendant was given to her by a god, and it is the only thing that could sooth the crown's anger. Initially laughed at, Midnight proved her importance as she produced flame from her hands, the only fire in the entire city aside from the Crown. This small group of risk-takers would later join up with Dutharr, Red. Grindseed, and Blumenthal to form the world-saving group known as AFEW. Midnight's main responsibility was holding on to the crown's Smothering Pendant.

Secretly, Midnight was always looking for an opportunity to take the Crown from the group. Midnight's personal flaw included a mistrust of the crown in everyone else's hands. She believed that only she could possess the crown and keep it somewhere safe. Unfortunately, Midnight's greedy personality, and over-eagerness to take the crown whenever it was passed off, led to her never getting to hold the crown in life.

Midnight was one of many casualties in Operation Bonds of the Earth, when the team successfully retrieved the Staff of the Marsh from The Howling Crag.

In Death[edit | edit source]

After Midnight was struck down in the Howling Crag, her body was collected with the other fallen Grumbarans, and brought back to the Amusan hold for burial. It was during this time that fellow Grumbaran Coseismus smuggled the crown on her body, placing it under her clothes against her chest. As Midnight passed away, her soul entered the dreamscape housed within the The Crown of Empyrosis.

In this fiery dream, Midnight released the original soul inside the crown, Bruneld Redmane.

Midnight would continue to live inside the diadem, acting as the new source of its power, and eventually succumbing to the same red hot corruption that would cause her to forget her name, going only by the infamous moniker: Yro.
