Coryphea Nox is a member of the Forsaken and the younger sister of Desdemona Nox, and the adopted sibling of Aiden Thorin. Coryphea was taken in with Desdemona by Edgar and Cassandra Castille, and raised with the Castille siblings. From what Aiden can remember, Coryphea had a warm, loving childhood right up until her mysterious disappearance right after the murders of Matthew and Desdemona on their wedding day. It's been said that Coryphea was sucked into the astral plane where her personality and very being was fragmented any number of times. Forsaken founder Whisper used her powers to rescue Coryphea from the astral plane and readjusted her to the material plane. The loving, bubbly little girl that Aiden knew is now an extremely malicious, unhinged individual with a love for all things sharp and bloody.

Appearance

From what illustrations there are of Coryphea, she was depicted as a short, light-skinned Drow with a fragile smile. Since her disappearance, Coryphea has been seen donning a crimson-red cloak and a strange, alien-like mask that she wears to cover her face. The mask distorts Coryphea's voice and gives her a cold, robotic tone. Beneath the mask, Coryphea has an eerie, disfigured smile and snow white hair.

Abilities

Astral Teleportation. Coryphea is capable of accessing and teleporting between the dangerous folds of the astral, ethereal, and material planes.

Chronurgic Destabilization. Coryphea has demonstrated the ability to use chronurgy magic and affecting the fabric of time and space on a small scale around her. She uses this to create outcomes in her favor. A well-placed strike, or point blank arrow shot, might miss even when all factors seem to be in favor of her opponent.

Supernatural Reflexes. Thanks to Coryphea's chronurgy and astral magic, she has incredible reflexes and moves incredible fast. This is amplified by the armlet-gem on her wrist which allows her to become little more than a blue blur to those around her.
