Verdant Mistress¶
Dubious Canon!
This page contains information on a character which is no longer present in version 2.2 of the map. It has been added for posterity, and draws on sources that are potentially no longer canon.
The Verdant Mistress (1) is (2) an extremely powerful arcanist, said to be single-handedly responsible for the creation of the Verdant Labyrinth.
- Real name unknown.
- Possibly still alive in Av4 100.
Previous Lore¶
Most information on the Verdant Mistress comes from an outdated official lore document, which asserts that the Verdant Mistress was one of the few known people in Drehmal's history to wield the power of "unlimited potentia", alongside the Tide Queen and Homli Tahsgan. The Verdant Mistress is said to have used her effectively infinite arcane power to turn a portion of the mountain range into a natural labyrinth, with constantly shifting mountains to prevent the armies of Maelihs from entering the East. This would likely place her first period of activity in either the Deity War, the ancient Av2 conflict between Maelihs and Virtuo, or shortly before/during the Tidal War in late Av3.
This same document also asserts that the Verdant Mistress, being a mythically powerful magic user, had one of the largest cult followings in Drehmal for a time, with some people worshipping her as the most benevolent of the great arcanists.
Current References¶
No written lore about the Verdant Mistress exists in the current version of Drehmal, but her name does appear twice in-map. A small structure can be found in the eastern Verdant Labyrinth, with a sign that reads "SHRINE TO THE VERDANT MISTRESS" and a generic loot chest.
The second is more substantial, as the Verdant Mistress is one of the four people who have a statue inside of the Kiln of Virtuo. This seems to imply that she may have been a Virmari, as well as being a part of Virtuo's Grand Parish.
