Anathema

## Birth and Childhood

Much like Ruina, Anathema wasn't born of Mulier and 69's union - rather, it was a virgin birth by a mortal woman. This maiden happened to be a contracted killer, and she started to teach Anathema her ways by the time Anathema was old enough to walk. When the woman believed that Anathema was skilled enough in the ways of killing, she taught Anathema how to think critically about a situation and how to make decisions on the spot. When that was over, the woman drilled psychology into Anathema's head. Eventually, Anathema became an efficient assassin, quick and nimble.

In preparation for Anathema's education at a nearby school, the lady decided to ingrain the idea that all humans were evil beings into Anathema's head. Whenever she had a job, she brought Anathema with her, telling her everything bad the victim had done and how the people the victim had attacked were affected. However, this was all unnecessary - Anathema had already possessed an innate hatred for humanity for their inelegant movements and clumsiness. The only person who didn't make her anger flare up was the woman who had taught her what she knew. When 69 picked Anathema up, he was pleasantly surprised - Anathema was perfect in just about every way.

## Teenage Years

However skilled Anathema was at the time, she still needed to learn more about the world to sufficiently annihilate her enemies without a spark of resistance. It was easier than 69 thought: Anathema had already learned enough math and science to equate to a high school education, and she could easily grasp things that would take others a long time to learn. By the time Anathema was fifteen, she had about the equivalent of PhDs in anatomy, psychology, biology, physics, and chemistry. As Anathema continued to grow, she became stronger and stronger.

Deciding that Anathema should also be powerful in using magic, 69 decided to teach her how to cast magic more efficiently. What really didn't help their enemies was that Anathema had an affinity for cloaking magic, which could make things invisible. With this ability, she could kill her marks without people finding out who did it. Even better, she could learn intel that couldn't possibly be learned without that sort of ability. 69 could even hide Anthemas existence if he worked hard enough, but he refrained - enough people knew about her already, which deterred him from doing so.

## Adulthood

As an adult, Anathema continued to be a deadly weapon. However, knowing that she should probably reproduce to keep the family going, she decided to enter the mortal world and find a mate. Yet, our lovely protagonist didn't want to go through the crude process of impregnation. And so, to avoid having to do so, Anathema decided to look into Greek mythology and the method which brought Athena into the world. Eventually, Anathema found that it was possible to bring new souls into existence by experiencing emotions strong enough that they split off from the main mind entirely and became different people. Because the body of the average person wasn't able to hold more than one soul, that soul would have to be ejected.

Anathema, having gotten her ideal procedure, proceeded to comb the human world and filtered out the things she didn't like until she found someone who suited the job - Patri. At first, Anathema got close to Patri, pretending to be a nice and kind person who loved everything, but after Satiata was formed, Anathema changed her behavior and started to abuse Patri. Eventually, this resulted in having two more children: Metun and Delir. Having gotten enough descendants, Anathema was satisfied, but she kept Patri in a cell just in case there was ever a need for more kids.
