Magna Mater the Vigilante

Lore[]

"The Duskwings" was an organization whose members all desired revenge. Whether against bandits, royalty, or monsters, they would work together to see to the downfall of each comrade's desired target. The Duskwings knew that while fighting against corruption individually was folly, they were unstoppable as a unit. And the very first Duskwing, known only as "Magna Mater", continued to hunt for further allies under the dark of night. After all, she desired for all the world to face its retribution.
