Lore
Aqueous, truly known for being one of the mightiest warriors the terran ocean has ever seen, is only nothing but a shell of the kindhearted and determined woman she once used to be. Most loyal she was to the crown king of the ocean, the mutant known as Duke Fishron, child of the previous king, whom Aqueous had protected with all of her power, aswell keeping the promise to protect also his successor. A guardian she was, to say the least - the ocean kingdom's inhabitants felt secure under her protection and a wide amount of creatures had looked up to her. A negative fortune it was to find out that the king had disappeared, leaving no trace of himself behind. During her lookout, she found him deceased on the ocean grounds, aswell seeing one of the terrarians escaping the ocean. Blinded by her rage and despair, she tried to attack them, only to find herself return back to the kingdom wounded and lost. Deep, her heart had been broken and in an act of infuration, she had taken her own matters in her hand and took the staff of the previous king - a staff so powerful that it is known for corrupting the soul of the wielder. Despite her cruel transformation into what she is today, the thought of revenge still lasted. She was stripped of her previous self, a kind hearted knight; the thought had driven her mad and there was nothing more important than bringing down death to the one who deserved it the most - his murderer.
