The Lady - feared by all. Upon death, she sorts each person into those who have lived their lives fully and those who have not, splitting the population in half. Those who have fully lived are sent to their fields of their god, to await rebirth in the end of days. Those who falter in life are crushed and their souls ground into dust for use in the next life. Her followers are either psychotic cultists or kind patient teachers that caretaker those near death.

The Lady has no relationship with other gods - indeed, she is anathema to them, for when they die she will judge them as well.

Her appearance is essentially unknown - those who are judged and return remember not their time Beyond.

The church has two sects. The first, a nunnish order of hospice workers. They follow a loose code of patience, medicine, healing, and humor. The second has no formal structure, nor do they meet in sacred places or buildings. Whether held beneath the earth in caverns or open to the sky, these crazed death zealots share only in the belief that by killing as many people as possible can we once more be born into the world, to be together with out loved ones.

Some whisper that she was once two gods - but this is obviously heresy.

Upon death, players will be judged by the Lady. If an attempt to revive them is made, flip a coin. On a tails, they have been chosen for the final war and recreation during extinction; they can be revived. On a heads, their eternal soul has already been re-purposed and this and all further revivafications fail.

It is rumored that up to three loyal companions may lay magical items and tell tales of a fallen companion during the revival ceremony, each adding a new coin flip and chance for success.
