	Unfortunately for Iomedae, if there's one thing she's known for, it's a time in ''Wrath of the Righteous'' where she appears before the players personally. She decides to grill the PCs to test them and see if they're ready, which involves asking them questions. Several of these questions are trick questions, where she's actually looking to see the party's reaction to them, and one is about one of her own personal deeds. Answering correctly causes her to drop off some minor artifacts.

So essentially, she's popping up in the last leg of a long adventure to inflict severe pain and injury on a party that has done nothing but try to help her, brag about her own deeds (when one of the things she's explicitly meant to be testing is humility), and generally act more like a power-tripping brat than the cosmic ideal of honor and protection that she's supposed to be. In fact, going by what's known about her church in official material, she was apparently acting in defiance of her own edicts.

	This one was so bad that even the designers stepped in and admitted they'd screwed up on the forums, since they figured the sonic damage was survivable at that point and therefore it wouldn't be a big deal, and because of the way the encounter is written (if one person in the party gets the right answer, they all do), most parties with a good amount of brain cells and at least one person with Knowledge (Religion) should be able to avoid taking any damage.

	Iomedae was born in [[Golarion#Cheliax\|Cheliax]], back in the good ol' days when they were still a vassal-state of [[Golarion#Taldor\|Taldor]] and had not yet gone full-retard on devil-worship. In her late teens she joined with the Shining Crusade, an alliance of various nation's militaries to combat a powerful [[lich]] known as the Whispering Tyrant. Great things seemed destined for Iomedae, as her bravery and conviction led her to steal victory from the jaws of defeat countless times, and with a little divine intervention -including summoning Aroden's herald (who died anyway lol) and having her sword magically reforged into an artifact after it was shattered by evil magic- the crusade was eventually victorious. After the Whispering Tyrant was vanquished and sealed away for<s>ever</s> the time being, she was given command over a city in Cheliax for a year, which grew to great prosperity under her stewardship all the while she would go out at night and fight monsters like she was the goddamn <s>[[Batman]]</s> [[wikipedia:Later_life_of_Isaac_Newton#Achievements_and_influence\|Isaac Newton]] or something. A year later she would take the Test of the Starstone and pass, upon which point the god Aroden formally asked if she would replace his slain herald, to which she agreed.

	And thus the reason for her ~~neigh~~-insufferable righteousness stems, from these humble origins as a paladin of Aroden, and now to be recognized by her sempai! Smiting the wicked and protecting the innocent had finally paid off. Things were finally going good for a while... until her patron deity Aroden suddenly suffered a severe case of the permadeaths off-screen, right on the cusp of a promised new golden age for humanity! And thus did she inherit most of his followers, his power and his legacy as humanity's god of goodness. But also, she has A LOT of really big fucking messes to clean up now as the world simultaneously descended into chaos on various fronts.
