## Appearance and Character

*See also: Images of High Priestess Kinvara*
Kinvara is one of the most beautiful women in the world by design, as her former deity invested his power unto her with the explicit goal of seducing important people (such as the members of House Targaryen) into his religion. Kinvara has dark hair, green/blue eyes, light skin, and big breasts that she accentuates with tight form fitting red dresses. She is intelligent and seductive, but also honorable due to the necessities of good character to properly lead a religion.

She wears a distinctive magical necklace of studded with fourteen gems, the same kind worn by Aegon's Court Mage Nalaehra, which keeps her eternally young.

## History

Once the Grand High Priestess for R'hllor the Traitor, now a converted to the worship of the Fourteen, Kinvara once attempted to convert Aegon to R'hllor's worship at any cost. From tempting him with much needed power during a war for survival, to tempting him with her body, Aegon and Daenerys both were targeted for conversion by her previous deity. After many conversations and "conversations" shared between the three of them, eventually it was Aegon who succeeded rather than her. Now a true devotee of the Fourteen, she remains a lethal weapon - both in and out of the bedroom. Her powers now being granted by Urrax rather than R'hllor, she is the first priestess in known history to be able to channel the powers of that particular divine.

Kinvara initially met Aegon and Daenerys Targaryen when they first arrived in Volantis and performed a rather spectacular wedding ceremony in the traditional *magical* Valyrian style, with sorcerous flames mixed with bladework. This display convinced her that Aegon Targaryen was Azor Ahai come again, and that the Lord of Light had chosen her to guide his champion upon the righteous path. She made a request to meet him upon his convenience, but their first private meeting was... less than adequate. Aegon responded arrogantly and with little forethought, prompting decisive and drastic measures from Kinvara which left nearly all of Aegon's followers burned upon holy pyres, a disaster only undone by newly discovered time travel which allowed Aegon to come back to their first meeting and be far more respectful and careful.

When the Dothraki invaded with the Great Stallion himself leading the charge, Aegon swallowed his humbled pride and requested Kinvara's help (and through her, the aid of her god), because if the Dothraki broke through the Black Walls then *everyone* died be they worshipers of the Fourteen or R'hllor. It turned out the Lord of Light responded with a scheme. Through Kinvara, Aegon was gifted a sizable portion of the R'hllor's might and told to wield it against the Dothraki in his name. This left Aegon at a crossroads. If he acted in R'hllor's name, that would undermine the Fourteen? But if he didn't act, would the Dothraki not break through and murder them all?

And thus, Aegon chose a third path. He took every last bit of the power that was given to him by Kinvara and R'hllor and put it where it rightfully belonged -- in the hands of the Fourteen. After Balerion descended from the heavens in fire and fury and helped restrain the Great Stallion long enough for capture, Urrax used the power taken from R'hllor to resurrect everyone killed by the invading Dothraki, from the highest noble to the lowliest slave, even the horses.

From then on Kinvara had an odd dynamic with Aegon. That incident apparently convinced her *more* that Aegon was Azor Ahai come again, and that Balerion was a dragon spirit rather than a god, and that Urrax's mass resurrection miracle was obviously the work of R'hllor instead. Seeing no recourse, Aegon and Daenerys bargained with Kinvara for a weekly private meeting to "discuss theology", though in truth it was used as an attempt by both sides to convert the other.

Eventually, the Targaryens were the winners. Aegon seduced Kinvara, and in the middle of sex he managed to get her to renounce R'hllor in the name of the Fourteen.

Currently Kinvara is working as a priestess in training for the revived Church of the Fourteen, though her high status as the former head of a prominent religion certainly didn't vanish.

## Children

Kinvara is currently six months pregnant with Aegon's child, and should be due to deliver in about three months.

## Abilities

As the former High Priestess of R'hllor and currently the only known priestess of Urrax, Kinvara has the ability to channel the power of her deity to resurrect the recently deceased.
