Appearance

The firstborn appears as an almost irritatingly beautiful and armored man in his early thirties, but he is also known to appear as a red peacock.

Principles

Grail for pleasure and self-indulgence, edge for a hot temper and fighting prowess, and both for vanity.

History

The Firstborn is said to have originated from a small village in Phrygia, albeit it’s name has been forgotten by the histories, as was his original name. Beloved by all, men, women and even the creatures of the mansus, he rapidly developed a highly narcissistic and dismissive personality, which ultimately proved to be his undoing: after being harshly turned down, a forest-seerlaid a curse on him, that he „never shall leave his house, lest he die.“ Infuriated, he ran after the seer, but as soon as he set foot on the doorsteps, he felt himself weakening. Using his beauty as ab bargaining chip, he slowly built up a cult, seeking ascension, because if he can't leave his house, he shall move to a bigger one. As the years passed by, he built up a cult, amassed a great hoard of treasures, incited strife between the hours, and directed his cultists in the flaying of Marsyas, the forest-seer who had cursed him. As the time had come and the hours were infighting more than ever, he seized his window of opportunity and ascended through the Sea Gate, in an monumental orgy in which he ultimately betrayed all his lovers, reciting the Formulae Voluptuous over and over.

Worship

The Firstborn is worshipped by the beautiful and the ugly alike, to preserve or improve, and by those who wish to fight with a brutal and unrelenting strenght, as opposed to The Abbess Sunsets worshippers.

Strangely, he is also worshipped by the betrayed and those who fear to be betrayed, but it is not known why.

There are two known ways to gain his attention, but both involve a sacrifice, which has to be given freely and for the sake of admiration: either you scar yourself, appealing to his aspect of edge, or you offer of your blood, for his aspect of grail.

Cults

His church is the Order of His Majesty the Firstborn, as one would have expected.

Mark

  1. Temptation: Beauty: I have been informed that I hold the key to unearthly beauty.
  2. Dedication: Beauty:
  3. Ascension: The skin‘s mark:
  4. Ascension: The hair‘s mark:
  5. Ascension: The mouth‘s mark:
  6. Ascension: The eye‘s mark:

Servants

He is served by the souls of those killed without honor , those he betrayed, which are his most fanatical and feared servants, and he gains power from all those who learn of the place behind desire.

Locations

The Fansus

To this day, he still resides at and presides over the Sea Gate, where he built his fortress of unchartered pleasures.

The Histories

His earliest notable involvement in the matters of the hours was his meddeling in their affairs

Items

Tools

A piece of Marsyas Skin


Ingredients

Influences

(Wouldn’t those be generic grail/ edge influences?)

Books

Rites

Rite of Betrayal

This rite is one of the hardest fullfill, due to the fact that it requires that the victim accepts it‘s death freely, re-enacting the Lovers betrayal. Other than that you requre a tool to slay them with, an influence to be consumed, and a piece of his lore.

About the Firstborn

How They Feel

He is a hot-headed hour, easily tricked into a fight, which he however will probably win. He both fights and loves with great passion, but most of all he loves himself. Sometimes, he is known to act erratically, but no affiliation with moth was ever proven.

Who They Blame

No one. At least this is a bigger prison than before.

What They Hide

He hides a trinity of secrets: his own name, a grand secret of betrayal, and what he did to the Weave before her body was woven.

Relationships

Due to his origin he generally dislikes lantern. He hates The Hill-Queen for what she is, The Omnipede for its appearance, and The Distinguished for her power, which he fears. He loves The Weft for the beauty of her histories, but also envies her, and is easily swayed by the golden words of The Gilded Insect, for he shares it‘s principles. Other than that, most hours pay hem lip-service, but they belittle him in secret. For some reason, he is often to be seen with the piper, who respects him. He also is known to be affiliated with several long of dead hours.
