Editing Darklord (section)

===Isabel de Sargas===
Darklord of San Bartolome. From her earliest days, Isabel de Sargas was a natural charmer, able to get anything she wanted... until the day she met a [[monk]] named Fernando in Porta Coeli. He refused to bend to her charms, and had no desire for anything she could offer him; all he cared about was attaining self-perfection, so that his soul could become an Njelx - the local term for [[angel]]s. Intrigue at his defiance soon grew into an all-consuming obsession; Isabel became convinced that she was in love with Fernando, and determined to make him reciprocate.

Finally, she decided that the only way to make Fernando come to her was to become an Njelx herself. Soon after, the dark Njelx Ezimel began to whisper in her dreams, offering to make her dream come true; Isabel resisted at first, but ultimately succumbed. Months later, the ritual was cast and Isabel became a beautiful winged woman; under the light of the moon, she flew to Fernando's room and told him that she had been an Njelx all along, one sent to test him and determine if his soul was worthy of similar ascension. She claimed he had passed this test, and also won her love, and so they would be together forever in Coeli. Fernando was delighted, and finally yielded to her embrace...

And that was when the sun rose. A strange feeling of lightness, of somehow being detached from her body, came over Isabel, and she saw horror in Fernando's eyes. Looking about, her eyes fell on a mirror, where she saw the truth; she was no Njelx, but a bat-winged horror, with razor-clawed fingers and the legs of some monstrous flying beast - she had become a [[harpy]]. And she wasn't tenderly embracing Fernando, but instead ripping him apart with her bare hands.

As she was snatched back to reality, the mists swallowed her and brought her to the demiplane of dread.

Ever since that day, Isabel has hated the church of San Bartolome. Though she can assume the semblance of her old form, the illusion doesn't last for long and can be forcibly dispelled by the light of both sunrise and sunset - she knows that if her true form were revealed, she would be hunted as a monster. As such, she can no longer exploit her charms to enthrall men, and has been forced into a bitter, self-loathing life as a social recluse. She likes to creep about the city at night and attack couples out of her rage and jealousy. By day, she opoerates a small fishing boat, desperately hoping to accrue the funds to try and overthrow the reigning theocracy, a task she will never complete.

Unbeknownst to Isabel, when she completed her dark pact, her soul was physically removed and now lies hidden somewhere in Nove Circulae, the realm of Ezimel and his fellow fallen Njelx. Unless her soul is returned to her, rendering her mortal, Isabel is unkillable; when slain, she returns to life within a tenday.

If Isabel chooses to close her domain's borders, then a great storm lashes the seas surrounding the island, rendering it impossible to sail or fly through.
