Oriax

Biography

Oriax is a powerful ally of the Hive, but not its servant. In truth, Beelzebub himself is one of her kin — devils as described in ancient legends. Mastering the ability to slip between realms, Oriax entered this world on her own terms, twisting a summoning ritual cast by a reckless mage.

Since then, she has woven a complex web of subterfuge across Jadame and beyond, advancing the Hive’s goals — or preparing to seize its mission herself, should Beelzebub falter.
