Eriphyla

"A coddling glance, an ominous simper..."

—Somnium Fluxus

Eriphyla (エリフイラ, Erifuira) is a mysterious Nefas Caela and, alongside her partner and former pupil, Ichchha-un-Idika Edha Guha Thakurta, founder and current leader of Diluculum Aeternus. Regarded by Nefas historians as a legend of her own sort, Eriphyla is among the oldest living Nefas and one of the few remaining former members of Diluculum Sanctus. She is rumored to have studied under one of the founders of Diluculum Sanctus, although Eriphyla neither confirms nor denies this.

Following Diluculum Sanctus' destruction at the hands of Velia Agostinha Vivax, Eriphyla simply abandoned her religious ways and opted to live a life of random debauchery as a regular human, withholding her whereabouts from other Nefas. Upon gaining an interest in the newly-transformed Ichchha, Eriphyla decided to join her in her quest to uncover Agostinha's true identity while training her to fully realize her power, making Eriphyla's name once again known to the world of the supernatural in the process. Whether Eriphyla truly believes in Diluculum Aeternus' cause or is simply acting out of boredom or undisclosed intent remains to be seen.
