Porche was one of the Maidens of Akhan, the Living goddess of the people of Phan'akhut. She an undead Golem created in service of her Goddess. A fanatic she willingly gave her life as a sacrifice to her Goddess to rise as a Maiden. An neigh on unstopable undead golem who served as her elite warriors and temple guardians.
In last day of her life in her homeland she had seen a great star come down from the heavens with a blinding light overhead. Impacting over the horizon the explosion it caused made the earth lift up and move like water instantly destroying nearly everything around her and burying her under the dirt. She felt a great pain, and fell comatose, to slumber for untold ages. Porche was discovered later to aspirate magically. Like a plant or a person she breathed almost unmeasurable amounts of magic from her environment, this is what sustains her and is why she was in perfect condition once uncovered.
Porche is very reserved but friendly with a melancholy air. Contemplative, thoughtful, and an almost courtly politeness and poise. She will often sit for hours observing people and listening. Her best friend is the well-known Chili Bear and will be seen being silly with him.
Porche's main power comes from millennium of battlefield experience. Combined with her incredible durability and equipment that will resist even modern threats she is a capable threat to any opponent. She can shrug off injuries and harm that would be fatal simply due to a lack of vital organs and no blood to lose.
Misc trivia
Porche can read and write in 36 different languages, However 35 of these languages are dead languages with no known examples
Porche's hair is a natrual color. Among her people common hair colors included the vibrant purple, a dark blue hue, and white. She is also able to grow her hair at will by focusing on it for many hours. Not a superpower per say but one of the few moments of style that the Maiden's allowed themselves.
Porche is also a suberb swimmer and will often go swimming in Talos bay at night. Her untiring endurance and strength combined with not needing to breath let her both swim in strong currents and dive underwater to explore for hours. She is even capable of swimming in her full armor although this is very slow and done for training. She is known to take a dip to clean herself up after a hard fought battle.
Porche was found is what is modern day Brazil on Pretoria Earth. Based on descriptions of her homeland it is believed her homeland encompassed an area of jungle and moutains that was comparable to the size of the Roman Empire at its height. There is however some disparity in the maps and nearby lands that do not fit the known geography. It is considered unlikely given the situation in Pretoria that traces of her civilization will ever be discovered or that others of her kind could be found.
Pana'Khut, the shining jewel of the ancient world. An empire that thrived for thousands of years in a time before Iron. A southern land of lush, dense jungles and soaring jagged mountains. A land of extremes. The empire's fortunes ebbed and flowed over time but the one constant was the faith of Akhan.
Akhan, the living Goddess, was the center point of their faith. A being of great power she and her church provided a bastion of stability and order during even the most trying of times. The Goddess only seldom intervened in the affairs of the empire, usually when it was most needed or her guidance was needed to return the country to a safe course in the worst storms.
She brooked no other gods in these lands and missionaries and preachers seeking to convert people were removed with prejudice. The very stability she offered
Thousands upon thousands of women served in the various religious orders that worshipped her. Some as healers, others as priestesses, and some as warriors. They were separate from the empire's military and answered only to the church but in practical terms they were a second force that often complemented the empire, although their first priority was protecting the temples.
The strongest of arm, mind, and faith were watched and tested. And some were deemed worthy to be offered the chance to become a Maiden. The Goddesses own elite warriors. This was no simple decision, however, for to become a Maiden the woman had to willingly die as a sacrifice to the Goddess. In a Ritual performed by the Goddess herself, the woman was sacrificed. It was her willingness and strength of faith that would keep her soul from passing on as it should and allow the Goddess to capture it and change it, imparting a tiny sliver of herself unto it. Powerful magics reformed the physical body beyond what a human was capable of and the soul returned to create the Maiden.
A maiden has no memories of her past life, though many habits and mannerisms carry over. She is purified of wants and desires except for her service to the Goddess. Things like family bonds, lusts, and wants are erased. It makes a Maiden both inhuman and incorruptible. You cannot bribe that which does not care about gold, you cannot seduce that which has no physical desire, and you cannot have questionable loyalties in one who has none save one.
A Maiden is a mixture of both a Golem and a Zombie. Made of physical flesh but augmented. Her senses are greatly improved, she no longer needs food, water, or sleep. Temperature extremes do not bother her and she does not breathe. Each maiden shares in the Bond, a telepathic link to all other Maidens and to the Goddess. Her mind is able to observe and never get bored meaning she can stand on guard duty forever but in practice, this is not done because they share in the duties to continually hone their skills. R
Upon each maiden a mask of seemingly fragile porcelain was worn, a symbol of both who she was, and a warning that she was a faceless extension of the Goddess's will. Despite its appearance, the mask is completely immune to all damage and it is impossible to remove it from the wearer. When a Maiden finally dies in battle she and her mask dissipate completely as though they were never there.
A Maiden is always fully equipped and in an instant can be deployed or perform her duties. Wearing heavy armor trimmed in bronze, a round shield, and a short blade akin to a Xiphos. She also had a small collection of other equipment such as ropes, arrows, and a folding short bow of unusual power. All the gear was enchanted and does not need maintenance.
