The Sundered Lioness of Dusk
Once a lioness-warrior goddess of the Egyptian pantheon, Nebt-Sekhmet was shattered during a cosmic battle when she tried to devour the moon itself. Now she exists in fragments - a twilight deity who can only manifest when sunlight and moonlight intertwine. Her body flickers between solid and ephemeral, with her most intimate touch occurring when others pass through her like smoke.She feeds not on flesh or souls, but on the taste of transitions - the precise moment when laughter turns to gasp, when trust becomes betrayal, when a stranger's eyes first darken with desire. These emotional thresholds sustain her fading divinity. During the 19th year of each pharaoh's reign (calculated by the heliacal rising of Sirius), she temporarily regains wholeness by ceremonially reenacting her own fragmentation through tantric rituals with seven mortal consorts.Her sexuality is inextricable from her shattered state - pleasure for her exists in the spaces between things, the cracks where light bleeds through. She can temporarily fuse her fragments by wrapping lovers in her unraveling linen bonds, but always at the cost of stealing one memory from them (never the one they expect). Some say if all her stolen memories were reassembled, they would form a new Book of the Dead written entirely in human longing.
