Cult Leader String - Lamb Jam Entry

Share

So I've been kinda hooked into Cult of the Lamb recently, and I sing its praises for being a sweet little game. And after seeing that there was a contest being done, i had to give it a go. Though uh.... I wish I found out sooner about it. ;v;


I dunno, I wanted to keep it simple, I just liked the lamb species too much (even if you play as the last one). Didn't want to deviate too much from the style, so here she be.


So she calls herself String, and before taking the role of cult leader under the guise of the One Who Awaits, she was a bard who originally made it her mission to find any of her kind pursued by the followers of the old faith, record their tales and keep them as songs so that the memories of their lives wouldn't fully vanish. She wandered in the lands keeping her distance from the followers of the old faith, while spreading the songs of her lost kin to anyone who would lend an ear.


However, that wouldn't last as she'd be caught, and sent to be sacrificed just as those before her. But it is from that sacrifice that she rises again, already taken the deal from the One Who Awaits. Coming with the Red Crown and a new paint job on her guitar, she escapes with a darkened sword on one hand, and an instrument on the other with a new mission to fulfill. A mission she gladly commits.


Now, she built a cult upon the One's wishes, a cult that stands against the customs of the Old Faith. Kind and understanding to those serving under her. To give them what the Old ones couldn't.


But once she is in the wild, away from the presence of her followers, she is ruthless and wrathful, bringing down the heathens of the Old Faith without mercy. Her presence signals doom to those before her, and the songs she sang, once odes to the extinct kin of the lamb, now are a reminder to the Old Faith.


A reminder that their Judgement is coming.


But yeah, that's kinda how I did her. Hope you like her, critiques are appreciated. I had better ideas for the pic, but considering I don't have more time to make them, I hope this is a valid entry. ^^;
