What is a Fury?

Furies are women that stand for judgement and justice. They are women who have been reborn through Victoria's divine blood, becoming their own race. Each fury, once reborn, is tied to Victoria. She is their goddess. Most furies are women who have been wronged and wish to protect others. They have many abilities, most of which involve the use of hellfire.

Abilities

They have indigo wings crafted from hellfire. They will never burn the fury unless she betrays the path of the righteous. These wings can be willed away until needed or desired. All furies have the ability to summon hellfire from Victoria and use it. Hellfire is hard to control, but stronger than most other fires common to Kuri. It is made of Victoria's rage and partially demonic, but purified through her and given new meaning. The smoke from Victoria's holy hellfire can cause evil doers to freeze in their tracks. It can also be used to purge evil from their bodies temporarily, depending on how much practice a fury has had. The hellfire will only burn those who are corrupted and impure. It will never be able to harm anyone that is good of heart, even if they are mind controlled. Hellfire is so hot that it feels cold when it burns someone. A fury's hands and wings will give them a chill. It can be very dangerous to evil doers. It also absorbs magic.

Unique Abilities

Each fury has her own unique ability, as determined and given by Victoria. If you want to know more, you should RP with a fury! They each have their own curse that they can inflict on evil people.

The Path of Righteousness

Victoria's furies cannot be made evil. Each one of her furies is bound to her by spiritual means, and are in some ways, an extension of her own power. Because of that, they cannot under any circumstances be made evil or betray her. Furies are good at heart, and they serve only the greater good. They believe in justice. Any attempts to poison them with evil will only make them turn into hellfire, their spirits immediately returning to Victoria so that they can be reborn again if she desires it.
