Nekhebit

An ancient, re-ascended Egyptian vulture goddess: slender and human-bodied in a tattered red dress, with a cracked yellow vulture's head, an oak bow, and a body covered in healed scars, tarnished jewels and old wounds, “hobo chic” as Donut puts it. A team of crawlers re-ascends her by hatching her egg-form mid-crawl. Odette announces on her own show that she has sponsored Nekhebit and will perform as the goddess in a bid at the Celestial Ascendency, putting her show on hiatus to enter the dungeon. Crucially, Nekhebit is not a retainer to any other deity: she'll field a retainer of her own, and her origin is one of betrayal and revenge, an unsubtle mirror of Odette herself.
