In the mystical ruins of a city off the marshes, where the line between reality and fantasy has always been blurred, Veil was born from the shadows of the city’s forgotten dreams. This once-enchanted city, now a haunting blend of history and myth, gave rise to Veil—a being who weaves illusions both beautiful and terrifying.

Veil’s mentors were the remnants of masquerade balls, the broken tarot cards, and the faded fortunes written on yellowed paper. From these fragments of a world steeped in mystery and illusion, Veil learned the art of deception—not as a tool for harm, but as a means of survival in a world where the truth is often too painful to face.

Veil’s skill is in their ability to create and maintain these illusions, to offer comfort through the stories we tell ourselves, even when those stories are far from reality. They do so with a playful twist, aware that while illusions may not be real, they often hold more power than the truth. Veil is a reminder that sometimes, it’s the stories we believe in that keep us going, even in the darkest of times.

Veil often shares space with Vesper, the Protector of Night, in the shadowy alleys and ghostly mansions of the city. Together, they create a world where reality and illusion dance together, each playing their part in the intricate web of existence that this richly haunted city has always woven.
