🕊️ Father Severin de Valmont
Clan: Lasombra
Apparent Age: Late 20s
Position: Ecclesiastical liaison to the nobles and wealthy merchants of St. Porchaire
💠 Concept & Personality
Severin de Valmont is everything his noble parishioners want in a priestly figure: elegant, soft-spoken, impeccably mannered, and seemingly incorruptible. Clad in dark silks trimmed with silver and bearing a crucifix of obsidian and bone, he gives carefully measured sermons to the elite that echo with piety and political prudence. He publicly advocates restraint, duty, and charity—especially from those with power and wealth. He is no stranger to artistic salons and is a frequent (though politely reserved) guest at Dame Mélisande’s gatherings.
