Maduabuchi

A mysterious and powerful woman of an older era, punished for her hubris by being locked in a mask. He has now atoned for her sins, and seeks to help the wearer of this mask, Banafsaj Safi, attain purity so she may unlock the full potential of the Purity Arts. 

Within a Purity Mask carried by Banafsaj Safi, a wearable device designed to help its wearer reach a state of purity and thus unlock the full potential of their Purity Arts, is Maduabuchi's soul. Whenever Banafsaj falls unconscious deliberately (sleep) or forcefully (knocked out in combat), the two encounter each other in a dream-like world that Maduabuchi can shape to her liking. Here, Maduabuchi gets to decide when Banafsaj is ready to wake up, usually when Banafsaj can walk away from their conversation a more developed person. Even after years together, Banafsaj knows virtually nothing about her background other than that some act of attempting to be like God locked her away here.

Primary Appearance

Maduabuchi's physique is that of a stocky humanoid, although other information is impossible to discern due to the outfit she dons. There are only two items Maduabuch wears. The first is a grey cloak wrapped snugly around her body. hood casts a perpetual shadow over Maduabuchi's face. If one were to remove the hood and cloak, one would still find her body to be obscured by an unnatural shadow. The second is a clay brick attached to rope, slung around her shoulder and resting beside her hip. It is inscribed with the symbol of a dead lion, whose head is disconnected from its body.

Abilities

Physical Manifestation

Maduabuchi can physically manifest in the world, although this is exceptionally rare and can only occur when she is not meeting with Banafsaj inside her headspace. Why varies, but it is often to advise someone who strongly influences Banafsaj (say, her rival). She possesses unknown but immense supernatural talents that place her on the level of a god, although they only see use in moments of true desperation.
