Phthisia

'Who are you, child?' came the echoing question, in a thousand voices all at once. The long grass of the prairie whipped in a cold wind under the darkening sky, as it wilted and died where the figure stood. Squinting, I could barely see what it looked like. It burnt deeply into my eyes to look, yet I could not draw my gaze away.'I am Romulus. I am your servant. I-' My praise was cut off by the endless voices again, all in unison.'No, child. You are pestilence. You are plague'. I knew in that moment she was here to save me, and as she reached out an arm, my skin blistered to meet it. I touched her by the hand, and all I remember then is death.- Romulus of the Sect of the Poisoned Chalice submits himself before Talona's Avatar.
Talona, the Lady of Pain was the goddess of plague and pestilence. She represented pain, penance, poison, plague and pestilence. Her mark often took the form of diseased skin, and was often purple.
In 1490, a sect in Aomodos' ruins summoned an avatar of her. She caused the plague of the 1490s, which killed many across The Danderillon and the Turmish uplands. As a result, she was one of the few deities that was pretty taboo to worship.
