The Siren

The Siren is a portrayal The Fear of Ourselves. She is considered to be the related to The Mother of Snakes, as their hunting tactics overlap. But whereas the Mother shows people what they wish they were not (or who they really are), the Siren shows them the exact opposite. It presents them with an idealized image of what they wish they were, realizing all of their hopes and aspirations for a fleeting moment, taunting them with their failures and deficiencies. She has a particular affinity for water, and relies more often on more fleeting images, such as the reflective surface of water or her victim's dreams to communicate with her servants and victims. More often than not, she encourages those she's taunted into taking their own lives to drown themselves in the sea, by tying their ankles together.

Her domain is The Vault of Tears, a series of glassy caverns deep beneath the ocean. From there, she spreads her influence through the waters of the world, seeping into the minds of those who are prone to self-doubt or self-hatred. Occasionally, when she finds a soul afflicted by a particularly delicious form of agony, she grants them a poisoned gift instead: a perfect life for the rest of eternity at the cost of the flesh of others. These servants, her The Drowned, are usually eloquent and irresistible, but water reveals them for the monsters they truly are.
