===Blood in the Water===
Lamni Armorpha was born aboard the [[Dunkleosteus]] on [[Main Timeline|4 Oris 1769 ADW]], the daughter of [[Szoakas]] and the ship's captain, [[Selachi Armorpha]]. She was raised as a pirate, and lived as a vicious member of the Dunleosteus' crew for most of her life.
Lamni Armorpha was born on the [[Dunkleosteus]], the ship of the feared pirate [[Selachi Armorpha]], on [[Main Timeline|4 Oris 1769 ADW]]. She was the daughter of Selachi and a memory-altered yuan-ti adventurer named [[Szoakas]]. She was raised as part of the pirate fleet [[Blood in the Water]], brought up to be as ruthless and bloodthirsty as possible. When Lamni was a small child, [[Loki]], the chaos god who altered Szoakas' memory returned his memory to him, causing him and Selachi to fight and Szoakas to be thrown from the ship. Years later, Lamni began to question the evil ways taught by Selachi. She had in her a drive to do good and could tell that the acts this crew were doing weren't it. This came to a point when Lamni learned the ship they were tracking was that of Szoakas, who was still alive and joined a group of seafaring adventurers called the [[Armored Shells]]. Lamni confronted Selachi and they fought, culminating in Selachi ripping Lamni's heart out of her chest and throwing her into the ocean. Deep below the depths an ancient presence reached out to Lamni and transformed her into a kraken-like form, stopping her from dying. When she tried to swim away, the presence pulled her deeper, but she was rescued by the Armored Shells before it could.

===Armored Shells and Deep Search===
After leaving Blood in the Water, Lamni joined the [[Armored Shells]]. She remained part of the crew of the [[Tide-Turner]] until the fleet was attacked by Blood in the Water. Lamni was rescued by a research submarine called [[Deep Search]], and joined the crew of it for a while. [[Jacques Blackcloak]], a member of Deep Search's crew and a former [[Blackguards|Blackguard]], recommended that Lamni join Vile Slayer [[Katya Song]] who was recruiting new Blackguards.
Reunited with her father, she went on to join the Armored Shells aboard the [[Tide-Turner]] and adventured with them for several years, learning to control and use her kraken transformation as she did. This lasted until one day Blood in the Water returned and attacked the Armored Shells fleet, sinking every ship and killing nearly everyone. Due to her transformation Lamni was able to escape by swimming away, but was badly wounded. She was rescued by a team of scientists in a submarine called [[Deep Search]]. Now without a crew or family, Lamni joined Deep Search for several months. But at that depth, the presence kept trying to take Lamni back, pull her and the submarine she was in deeper. It became too dangerous for Lamni to stay at sea so she had to leave this crew, but she still had that drive to do good. [[Jacques Blackcloak]], a member of Deep Search's crew and a former [[Blackguards|Blackguard]], recommended that Lamni join Vile Slayer [[Katya Song]] who was recruiting new Blackguards.

Lamni, along with [[Frites Magnifique]], [[Seol Ikamuzu]], [[Miyuki Viceron-Serothis]], [["Igor Vextress"]], [[Iggy]], [["The Ram"]], and [[Forget]] joined the [[Shade Scare Order]] of the Blackguards at their sanctuary on Ryngot's Island in [[Stormclaw]], [[Quelxiros]]. They completed the Trial of Lord Kyrir and celebrated with a trip to the Golden Apple Brewery and the Starlight Market. The next day they met with [[Edmund Gray]] who told them about the infected dragons returning from [[Sythus' realm]], and the party went up to the [[Hatchery of Zot]] on [[Quelzonos]]. To clear the hatchery of [[Thorn Rot]], the party killed the infected creatures and burned down the hatchery, along with all infected creatures and plants within, and the surrounding forest that the thorny vines reached into. For this successful mission, the members of Memento Mori were given the title Dragon Guard and citizenship in Quelxiros.
On 8 Molor 1789 ADW, Lamni joined the [[Blackguards]] in [[Stormclaw]], [[Quelxiros]] and was among the founding members of [[Memento Mori]]. After a few missions on the material plane, they would go on to adventure in [[Wargrave]] and beyond.
 
The next day they teleported to Tortoran and left with [[Captain Dryden]]'s [[Shadowscales]] to the [[Gorge Lord's Burrow]], where the first infected dragon landed, to rescue [[Arthax Zythillon]] and retrieve Edmund's research. After returning, they met with [[High Guardian Joel]], [[General Crow]], and [[Dune Guardian Alex]] and planned a preemptive attack on the [[Ebon Fang]]. They take [[Titus Warborn]]'s airship until it was shot down, then [[Greyhide]]'s airship, to [[Dendarus]]. They drop in and assault the [[Serpent Eye Tower]], a walking mobile base used by the Ebon Fang. Inside, it was revealed that the Ebon Fang was working with Blood in the Water and [[The Collective]].
 
After returning, the party was teleported aboard the [[Cloud-Strike]], beginning the several-month journey to the front lines. During this time, the party played games of truth or dare, bought magic items, and participated in several duels. Lamni dueled Miyuki, Memento Mori dueled each other, and Memento Mori dueled [[The Eclipse]] who was visiting and wanted to meet the party. Afterwards, the Eclipse invited Memento Mori to join [[Project Guardian]]. As the ship arrived in [[Wargrave]], it was attacked by a [[Dynast]] [[Siege Beetle]] and sabotaged by an agent of the Collective, causing the ship to crash. While trying to escape this, Lamni was killed along with the rest of the party.
 
They were revived by some unknown force and continued their mission. They met with a group called [[Umbral Vigilance]] stayed with them for the night before leaving for [[Garen]], a village of deserters, to acquire vehicles. The village quickly descended into chaos thanks to their [[Bode|Captain Bode]]. Several Garen soldiers escaped with and joined the party, including [[Sapphire]] and [[Brenn|Pvt. Brenn]]. The party took a few vehicles and drove them to [[Ironlight]].  There they traded for the [[Valiant]], an air vehicle to head to the Project Guardian meeting at [[Blightgrave Crossing]], piloted by [[Kira|Captain Kira]].
 
Once there they met several other Project Guardian adventuring parties before The Eclipse arrived and tasked the party with finding the [[Hounds of Doom]], a Blackguard party that went missing. They flew the Valiant there until it was shot down by [[Plum]], killing Kira and all surviving Garen soldiers except Sapphire. Soon after they found [[Wyvern]], the one surviving member of the Hounds of Doom after [[Count Intheril]] went mad and killed the party before leaving to find an obelisk. Wyvern joined the party as they rested in a nearby minefield bunker. The next morning, after Forget stepped on a mine and exploded into an ether cyclone, Lamni grabbed him and pulled him back out.
 
The party, knowing that Plum was going to attack the city, continued to [[Champion City]]. When they arrived and helped defend the city, [[Harbinger Menace]] invited them to join the fight at the [[Island of the Fallen]], a nearby island where the Ebon Fang stored weapons that Plum's forces took. During a Blood Feast before this battle, Sapphire raised concerns about Iggy, saying he pointed a gun at her face earlier. The party continued to the island and found missiles primed to launch at the material plane. Lamni was killed in the fight and revived by Forget, then dragged to safety by Frites. Iggy went to supposedly stop the missiles, but betrayed the party and instead launched them at the material plane while causing an explosion on himself that killed Wyvern, Arthax, Forget, and Sapphire. The remaining party then fought and killed Iggy.
 
====Post-Iggy Memento Mori====
 
[[Lyrith Fallen]], at the behest of the Eclipse, teleported Memento Mori back to Blightgrave Crossing. There the Eclipse, [[Meat Squad|some old adventurers]], and many of the world's leaders discussed what to do next with Memento Mori and the war. Lamni, as well as the rest of the party, was very mistrusting at this point. They argued intensely, but in the end all of the party decided to stick together, and they welcomed [[Oswin Venator-Navita]] to join them. Afterwards they strategized with [[Sanguine Squad]] who would go after Plum while Memento Mori captures and interrogates [[Zul Netol]] in [[Cinder Moon]].

Biography

Blood in the Water

Lamni Armorpha was born on the Dunkleosteus, the ship of the feared pirate Selachi Armorpha, on 4 Oris 1769 ADW. She was the daughter of Selachi and a memory-altered yuan-ti adventurer named Szoakas. She was raised as part of the pirate fleet Blood in the Water, brought up to be as ruthless and bloodthirsty as possible. When Lamni was a small child, Loki, the chaos god who altered Szoakas' memory returned his memory to him, causing him and Selachi to fight and Szoakas to be thrown from the ship. Years later, Lamni began to question the evil ways taught by Selachi. She had in her a drive to do good and could tell that the acts this crew were doing weren't it. This came to a point when Lamni learned the ship they were tracking was that of Szoakas, who was still alive and joined a group of seafaring adventurers called the Armored Shells. Lamni confronted Selachi and they fought, culminating in Selachi ripping Lamni's heart out of her chest and throwing her into the ocean. Deep below the depths an ancient presence reached out to Lamni and transformed her into a kraken-like form, stopping her from dying. When she tried to swim away, the presence pulled her deeper, but she was rescued by the Armored Shells before it could.

Reunited with her father, she went on to join the Armored Shells aboard the Tide-Turner and adventured with them for several years, learning to control and use her kraken transformation as she did. This lasted until one day Blood in the Water returned and attacked the Armored Shells fleet, sinking every ship and killing nearly everyone. Due to her transformation Lamni was able to escape by swimming away, but was badly wounded. She was rescued by a team of scientists in a submarine called Deep Search. Now without a crew or family, Lamni joined Deep Search for several months. But at that depth, the presence kept trying to take Lamni back, pull her and the submarine she was in deeper. It became too dangerous for Lamni to stay at sea so she had to leave this crew, but she still had that drive to do good. Jacques Blackcloak, a member of Deep Search's crew and a former Blackguard, recommended that Lamni join Vile Slayer Katya Song who was recruiting new Blackguards.
