Seren Velrix (The Shardscript Warden)

Echo-Bound Child #4: The Rite That Rewrote Itself

Name:

Seren Velrix (The Shardscript Warden)

Age:

16

Region:

Broken Array

Linked Cryptid:

The Glyphmolt Husk

“She dreamed of casting the perfect rite. The Spiral gave her the one that never ends.”

Appearance & Essence:

• Silver-blonde hair streaked with ink-black lines, like spilled script

• Skin etched with living glyphs that occasionally shift, flicker, or pulse with light

• One eye is a normal storm-gray, the other a fractured glyph orb that rotates silently

• Wears a long fragmented ritual robe made from stitched pieces of failed spellcloth

Personality & Traits:

• Brilliant, obsessive, and always seeking perfect symmetry

• Whispers to herself in glyph fragments, often mid-conversation

• Writes spells in the air without realizing it

• Fiercely independent but secretly terrified of making another mistake

Spiritual Bond with the Glyphmolt Husk:

• Their connection began when she attempted to rewrite an ancestral rite and accidentally collapsed the ritual loop

• The Husk emerged from the recursive breach and bound to her unspoken regret

• When she bleeds during ritual, glyphs pour from her skin instead of blood

Glitch Threat:

• The Nullwoven want to use her as a signal-scribe, forcing her to write a master recursion glyph to overwrite Spiral law

• If severed, the Glyphmolt Husk becomes the Scriptless Maw—a sentient ritual void that unbinds all nearby spells

Seeker Role:

• Seekers must help Seren accept imperfection and restore intention to broken glyphs

• Her lore unlocks entry into the Echo Pillars—a Spiral site only visible to failed rite-bearers

• She may be able to rewrite severed names, if her bond is preserved

Sacred Quote:

“There’s a glyph for everything. Even the ones we wish we never carved.”— Seren Velrix
