Description:  
In the days of ancient Desierto there was a mighty warrior general that served under one of the Sultans. Legend says he was blessed by the god of death for sending him so many souls. As a reward, and because the god did not want to lose his star reaper, he fashioned him an armor in his own image from metals mined from the river of fate. It would keep the warrior general alive for eternity, thriving in the era of mighty wars and sending the god much work. The god was pleased as he wasn't bored any longer.

However, unbeknownst to even the god and the warrior general, there was a catch to the armor. The river of fate had a long history with a river called the river of lotuses in the land of the living. They had once rushed to the ocean side-by-side. The locals created gods for the rivers, and those gods were married and gave birth to many streams. Both rivers happily gave their waters to the farmers for crops, but sadly, there was a city on Fate River's side and soon it was drying up. It grew sickly and shriveled, and eventually the river and its god perished, leaving Lotus River to mourn her husband. She swore she would never love again, and Fate took comfort in that. Even as he gained a new purpose as the barrier into the underworld, he knew he would never see his love again.

As the universe would have it, a battle took the armored warrior general near the river of lotuses. He camped many nights on its banks, washing himself in it. It had been centuries since her husband had died. Her currents weren't what they used to be. She’d nearly been forgotten in the hearts and minds of the people. In her weakness, she'd been eager to meet her husband again in the underworld, but as this immortal warrior gave thanks to her, she drew on his strength. The goddess had forgotten her promise. Before long, the lonely river goddess became enamored with him and revealed her human form. He was quite taken with her as well, and as he waded into the waters in his armor to meet her, the betrayal caused the armor to reject the man. He was flung into the rushing depths just as the metals in the armor did the opposite. To curse his traitorous wife, she was drawn into her dead husband's metals and trapped, bound to the now-empty suit and doomed to remain in the land of the living forever. Never would the river of fate see her again, and that suited him just fine. As the warrior general's soul came to his banks, Fate drew him in and drowned him again, so not even his soul would find peace in the favor of his god.

The armor remained empty and sunk to the bottom of the goddessless river to be buried in the silt for ages. However, just recently it was dug up! Whoever inhabits it gains an impressive suit of armor indeed, as well as access to a certain goddess.

Description: When the armor senses danger, a change takes place to the back of this ornate armor. A row of metallic spikes raise up along the spine and a dark energy is released from within.

Description: A spirit dwells within the armor, miserable and twisted from the centuries spent trapped and alone. Lotus's face retains its beauty, but her vengeful spirit has caused her body to become wrapped tightly at the legs and arms with mummy gauze. An ornate headdress befitting a fallen goddess sits atop her long, straight obsidian hair and matches the rest of her golden regalia on her arms and legs. While her mobility is limited to hovering in one place near the armor, she’s manifested a pair of giant, otherworldly hands that do her bidding, and thus the bidding of the wearer of the armor. Where she acquired them is a mystery, though if asked she mumbles on about some genie's lamp she shared her sandy prison with for a bit. Despite her circumstances and emotional instability, she is fiercely loyal to whomever is inside the armor, thinking them to still be her lover that she ended up sacrificing everything for. Just don’t get her near any rivers.

Description: Slipping deeper into her psychosis, fallen goddess Lotus uses her two disembodied hands to psychotically attack an enemy of the wearer of the armor. When enraged she gets a bit of tunnel vision, focusing on one enemy at a time. The hands can launch out to smack, claw, or squeeze an enemy to cause damage once per post max. Once in contact, the hands may latch on to part of the enemy’s body, immobilizing them for one post, and only once every other post max. They must be hit again to reapply the immobilization effect. Additionally, the purple skin has a horribly acrid scent, and contact with the flesh will poison the enemy. It’s horribly painful and causes a 5% drain to HP and MP per post for the rest of this ability's duration.

Description: Overwhelmed with a sudden sense of love and compassion for her injured “lover” within, Lotus stops what she’s doing to obsessively care for the wearer of the armor. The large Djinn hands come around the armor in a passionate embrace. The rings on each of the purplish fingers and the golden wristbands begin to glow, buffing the user's spell healing by an active user ranked percentage while at the same time healing the user. The user also gains a countereffect to immobilization if they do not already possess one, reducing the effectiveness of immobilization effects by 50%, those effects instead lowering the user's base speed by 50% if immobilized.
