What the Party Knows

She was imprisoned for centuries in the tower that bears her name — the Prison of Ser Vindictus, on the 273rd Layer of the Abyss. She was held by a binding collar that suppressed her divine form and fed a corrupting energy into her continuously. The Knights of Vindictus (the order she founded) have been seeking her for this entire time.
She was freed in Session 048. Crowley grappled her in her corrupted form, and — while she was restrained — removed the binding collar manually. The dark red corruption shattered. She rose in her true deva form.
She recognized her divine obligation to Leigha. When she first saw the restored Leigha in Session 053, she knelt — recognizing Leigha's divine authority without needing an introduction.
She was given the Holy Avenger in Session 053. KeYs placed the Holy Avenger in her hands before the chapel approach. The moment her fingers closed on the hilt, the blade blazed to full radiance. KeYs also gave her a +1 Breastplate.
Her last words: "Run. Save Leigha. I will hold him back. Do not let the Wraith King get her soul." She turned back toward the Wraith King and the World Eater while the party retreated through the portal.
She is the founding figure of the Knights of Vindictus. The order has existed for the centuries she was imprisoned — they have been operating in her name and waiting for her return. Sir Titus, the Knights' current chapter leader at Leilon, knows her name and her significance.
