Lenore Hearthorne is a Galik aristocrat who dedicated themselves to the demoness Mother and is the partner of Alistair Hearthorne. Alongside their partner they spearheaded the operations to prepare for Mother's ascension. They orchestrated the planting of a bounty on The Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company when the company returned to Galik. Lenore was later slain during The Thelryan Restoration.
Physical Appearance
In her human form Lenore Hearthorne is a beautiful pale woman with raven black hair. Her true form is much more horrifying, appearing as a zombified humanoid infested with mushrooms and fungus. She wears a wedding dress made of white mycelium strand from which stretches fungal pseudopods which she can control.
History
Lenore Hearthorne is the only daughter of the head of the Bozzeli mob family in Galik. From a young age she showed psychopathic tendencies, causing numerous deaths which her father covered up. Eventually she would be drawn to Alistair Hearthorne and the two would begin a relationship. Lenore and Alistair would set off into the wilds in hopes of finding the lost ancient city of Thelrya to gain the power that lay within. In Thelrya they would find Mother who promised them great power in return for their devotion, an offer which they both accepted.
Using their wealth and influence Alistair and Lenore would establish a cult of Mother in Western Amusa and begin to lay the seeds for Mother's plan to ascend to godhood. She and Alistair would take control of all of Mother's forces in Amusa after the failure of The Gnoll King during The Raid on the Tempest Brothers Expeditionary Company. When the company returned to Galik she worked with the assassins guild, the Red Blades, to put out a bounty on the company. Members of the company were able to later ambush her and use a ritual breaking dagger to sever the bounty contract. After Alistair became High Burgher of Galik and killed the entire council of Burghers, she and Alistair fled to Thelrya and were banished from the city after being confronted by the Tempest Brother's Expeditionary Company.
Mother's master plan was to use the major leyline in Thelrya to become a god, a plan inhibited by a powerful time stop that was cast over it. The plan to break the spell was to conduct a ritual through Alistair and Lenore's wedding. Alistair was killed by members of the Tempest Brother's Expeditionary Company before he could properly be married to Lenore, and so Lenore instead completed the ritual by forcing the adventurer Chrysaor Purosis to marry her, after which she was murdered.
Powers and Abilities
Lenore was gifted with great spore based magic from the demoness Mother. She is a high level spellcaster and is able to use her spores to charm and control her enemies. Her fungal pseudopods also demonstrated the ability to strip anti-fungal effects from humanoids.
