## Appearance

### Light

In her casual wear, she has bandaged up arms, indicating her lost limbs, while wearing a green dress with an apron. Her hair is ginger and curly, she is described by The King and even Satan as "beautiful". As queen, she wears a pink dress, a crown and overly large metal hands. Sometimes she's carrying her baby on her back.

### Dark

In contrast, her dark casual look features no bandages and instead blood spurting out from the wounds, her dress is black with a torn bloody apron and her face is more spotty. Her hair is more darker and less clean. As queen, her dress is red and she has large claws instead of metal hands, her face is cleaner but redder. Like her light counterpart, sometimes she's carrying her baby on her back.

## History

### Light

Born to a poor miller, she is unaware of the deal her father had made with The Devil. When Satan does revisit, her father cuts off her hands as the Devil wanted her. Her hands being cut off results in her to sob endlessly, getting her stubs wet which Satan finds disgusting. As a result of this grievous bodily harm caused to her, she runs away. Feeling hungry, the Handless Maiden attempts to pick a fruit from the royal garden, but is caught by the king. Despite this being a crime punishable by death, the woman's beauty wins the king over, who gifts her metal hands, and they quickly get married and soon have a child. After their child is born, a war starts and the king goes off to battle, while at the warzone he sends letters to his wife, but the letters get intercepted by Satan who changes the letters into orders to have the queen executed. Once the Handless Maiden finds out, she run away with her child. Out in the wilderness, they are protected by Guardian Angel who keeps them safe. The Handless Maiden goes back home and decides to forgive her father for what he did to her, while coincidentally, her husband returns from war and reveals he never intended to have her executed and that she was tricked. She lives happily ever after with her husband and child.

### Dark

In the dark version, she is once again unaware of the deal made by her father and Satan where Satan had demanded the miller's life, but he promises his daughter's instead. When Satan comes to visit some time later and finds the cowardly miller had cut off his daughter's hands, ruining her for Satan. She runs away from home and attempts to eat a large pear from the royal garden, but is caught by the king who threatens to kill her. However, he sees she is "armless" and extremely beautiful, as such he make her sharp claws as well as quickly marrying her and having a child. Soon after the child is born, The King goes on a crusade to squash multiple rebellions and to take over land, whilst doing so, he sends letters to his wife, but the letters are intercepted by Satan who changes the letters into orders to have the queen executed. Once the Handless Maiden finds out, she run away with her child. Out in the wilderness, they are protected by Guardian Angel who keeps them safe but fills her mind full of revenge against the man who put her into that state in the first place. At some point she reunites with her husband and the two head to her old home where they slaughter all the residence with the Handless Maiden murdering her father, exacting revenge.
