RUBEDO

Ophelia Relicula, now known as RUBEDO, is an uncanonical side character in the second act of The Rift Maker, and the primary antagonist of a Fan-Made Act; Honeyed Heart. RUBEDO and all those related to the story are not created by The Creator of The Rift Maker himself, but a dumbass with too much free time. RUBEDO is an entity that seeks nothing else but to consume and consume. Initially a young girl, RUBEDO was corrupted by loneliness, confusion and impending hunger that would shape the Monster she would become. In the matter of seconds, groups of people are reduced to nothing, and many are left to ponder what could even be able to cause such disappearances. RUBEDO's identity remains mostly unknown to the public, regarded as an ominous looming presence than a person... If she can even be considered as a living being anymore.
== History ==
Initially a young teenage girl, Ophelia was always an enigma to begin with. Not many people noticed her, or acknowledged her existence to begin with. All she had left was her pet python, Bowie, who never left her side for years. Though the Void in her heart grew, the smile on her face never wavered. Days went on, it was all the same; no friends, no nothing. The young girl felt increasingly empty as days--no, months passed. Fittingly, this lack of acknowledgement made it easy to fulfill her potential; Vampirism. Random students would feel an aching, itching feeling on their neck without knowing why. Free meals left and right, Ophelia felt some relief for the time being... But that feeling would never last long. 
Hungrier and hungrier, the demand for blood grew larger and larger with time. Ophelia's appetite could not be mended by small meals alone. More, she needed so much more. She couldn't eat more of the students, she'd surely get caught! Stuck feeling endless pain with the expanding Void in her body, she had no choice but to fulfill said Void by any means necessary. Snake meat was never really tasty, but this meal alone spiraled Ophelia into a hole of madness. A hole she would never come out of again. 
=== RUBEDO ===
The meal that used to be her best friend filled her with a comforting warmth. She felt... whole, like the Void in her heart was filled. Full of life, for once, the smile on her face felt genuine. Of course this would only last temporarily, as the sinking feeling returned, and so did her hunger. After such a scarring event, Ophelia disappeared entirely. It was only until then did people notice her presence; by realizing the lack of it. Searches would become fruitless, as the young girl would be no where in sight. Meanwhile, Ophelia herself grew to become a shadow of what used to be.
RUBEDO they dubbed the Monster. Supposedly responsible for a plethora group disappearances across the planets, usually travelling wanderers and hikers alike. The stuff of Urban Legend, each planet has a different explanation for these missing cases, but all of them have one thing in common; The sole fact that the victims bodies were never found. RUBEDO herself thinks not of the people she feasts upon. Her desires revolve only in the need to consume more. It's unknown how much she has taken already, but it's very clear she has no interest in stopping any time soon.
== Abilities ==
=== Hole-Dwelling ===
Spiral into an never-ending abyss, RUBEDO is able to consume anything in her path. People reduced to mere memory in seconds, it's unknown where they go exactly, but it's sure they'll never be found again. If you peek under her dress, you can see an endless Void along with the spiraling souls of those she consumed to get to the size she is now. Edgy fashion sure, but RUBEDO doesn't seem to mind. 
== Relationships ==
=== Lady Liberty ===
RUBEDO is quite fond of Lady Liberty.
