Before you stands a teenager, about 17 or so. She is about five and 1/2 feet tall. Her hair is jet black, falling to her ankles and contrasting deeply with her alabaster skin. The hair is gathered away from her face by a black headband, revealing that her ears are pointed at the tips. The irsis of her eyes are a deep blood-red. Other than that, her face is unremarkable, except that it is often smiling in impish delight. She wears a black dress. Over that is a suit of black lamellar armor. On her feet are simple slippers, and she wears gloves that extend past her elbows. Both the slippers and the gloves are dark purple. She is very graceful, and is often skipping, dancing, or at the least bobbing her head to some internal music. She carries no weapons, and does not look to be any kind of martial artist.
Often, she is accompanied by a giant reptillian creature that looks like a River Dragon, but is fully double the size of a normal one, and is colored a pale white instead of the blue of the normal river dragon. On its back is a saddle of white leather, with a saddlebag on each side.
First of Many is a deathknight in the service of The Dowager of Irreverant Vulgate in Unrent Veils, the first one that the Dowager has created (besides Shoat of the Mire, who doesn't really count). Her full name is First of the Coming Many Borne on Black Wings to Spell the End of Days, and she used to be Reiko Mouryou, ghostblood.
First has begun making a name for herself. Not only did she slaughter a village (for raw materials), she has been visited by Devil's Torment, made acquantances with Azami the Winter Rose, and almost acquired a pirate ship full of zombies. She has also created a more deadly zombie variant, having implanted spikes and shards of glass into their dead flesh before animating them. During the course of her village killing, she killed the thaumaturge Lord Flowers and bound his ghost to her service.
Now, she has been charged by the Dowager with getting Azami to look into the Well, as her first official task. She succeeds, but Aza's head doesn't explode, as was hoped.
Guardian of the Lost, a Sijanese 'mummer' (mortician) who is actually First of Many in disguise, visits the warcamps at Thorns, and is, if not accepted, at least spared by the Celestial Exalts she runs in to. She also takes this opportunity to acquire several corpses of the gigantic Forest Mimics who perished in the battle.
First meets with Whispered Silk, and their crazy feeds off of each other. She also meets, one at a time, the twin Abyssal Half-castes, and hits it off with them. She doesn't meet Vathrin, though, which is probably lucky for her.
Recently, she's been working on her necrotech skills, as well as her necromancy. Hopefully, she can make something /cool/.
During Calibration, First went to a Yu-Shan party, getting really wet (sort-of) and making some money. Also, she had her 18th birthday on the 3rd day of the 5 days of darkness.
First of Many has finally decided that she has created enough of an army to begin doing evil things. She led a group of zombies at the town of Oshkin's Falls, burning the whole place to the ground and killing everyone who didn't run away. She even killed a Godblood warrior who tried to protect the place, and she made him into her bodyguard. Well, his skeleton, at least.
