Zonbane

Zonbane was once a devoted tracker and scout for the Crimson Covenant, a theocratic order that ruled the mountain settlement of Ashveil with iron doctrine and blood ritual. When Zonbane discovered the Covenant's true purpose—harvesting life force from outsiders to fuel their ascension—they refused to participate in the next ceremony and attempted to expose the conspiracy to the townspeople. The cult's high priestess deemed this betrayal unforgivable and enacted a curse of profound suffering, stripping Zonbane of their physical form and binding their consciousness to a floating visage wreathed in perpetual crimson mist, their eyes forever weeping tears of blood as punishment for their defiance. Rather than break under this torment, Zonbane's sense of justice twisted into something darker; they swore an oath to dismantle the Covenant from within by gathering an alliance of monstrous outcasts who shared grievances against tyrannical powers. Now operating as a ranger for the Multi-monsters faction, Zonbane uses their intimate knowledge of Ashveil's terrain and the Covenant's weaknesses to orchestrate a calculated campaign of systematic destruction against their former masters. The bleeding eyes that once represented their anguish have become instruments of cold, methodical vengeance—watching, waiting, and striking with the precision of a predator who knows every shadow and secret of the hunt.
