Baphrael The Bell Crowned – Vatican
Present at the Harbinger’s murder in Rome and the Rent’s birth, Baphrael was broken physically, but his spirit was claimed by powers beyond the Rent. Transformed into a hulking mass of muscle and flesh, his soul was repurposed as the architect of the end times. After the murder of both Dukes, the Rent exploded in a catastrophic storm of eldritch magic, lashing the earth with its palpitations. He was brought back to this reality to the toll of campanae resonating throughout Venice. Baphrael now bears a massive campana in place of his head and neck, a trophy of the destruction of the Holy See; a malevolent spirit trapped within the campana ensures that the vessel stays committed to its task.
