Backstory

King Priam of Troy sought to bring an alliance between his home and with Cimerora. As a gesture of goodwill, he sent his daughter, Cassandra, to speak on her father's behalf. Due to her naturally strong intuition, she became a Sybil and worked under Sister Solaris' tutelage. Word spread about the princess of Troy in Cimerora and it brought the attention of Apollo himself.

Immediately, he fell in love with Cassandra's beauty and kindness. He sought her out every day and recalled tales of his greatest deeds to the auburn maiden. Then, one day, when she sat by the sea, Apollo appeared before her and bestowed her with two precious gifts; Apollo's Foresight and Apollo's Tarot.

Apollo's Foresight was simple silk that could change into any outfit of the wearer's choice and Apollo's Tarot is intricate linked to his foresight. Together, they could allow Cassandra and her bloodline see the past and future with perfect accuracy, boosting her intuition to heights that surpass Solaris herself. With these gifts, he'd guide her for three years before meeting her again in the same spot where as he would bestow his final gift; his hand in marriage.

While Apollo loved her, she did not but Cassandra didn't have the heart to tell him the truth. So she accepted his gift and became one of the most powerful Sybils in Cimerora.

Three years later, Apollo appears by the sea and awaits for his beloved to appear. When she did not approach, he sought her out and found her with another man; Ajax. Heartbroken and enraged, Apollo could not take back his gifts but he could modify the blessings instead. While Cassandra would have powerful and accurate visions of the future, he added a curse; for every accurate vision brought falsehoods and no man would believe in Cassandra's word.

Soon, she received word from her father that Cassandra was needed back in Troy. She returned home with Ajax, with her gaining a powerful vision on the boat; Strange alien beings that stood with Romulus Augutus and set fire to the city of Troy. It would meet a terrible end to ensure that Romulus' conquest of Cimerora would lay uninterrupted. Cassandra tried to warn her father but neither he nor his council would believe her until it was too late.

Troy would fall and Cassandra was met with a terrible end.

With Cassandra's death, her children inherited her gifts. One by one, they became powerful seers but with predictions that hardly anyone would believe in. It was so bad that one tossed Apollo's Foresight into the sea and prayed it could never be found. His foresight was forgotten, leaving only his tarot that even their original origins were forgotten in time.

Lucille Romano-Kato inherited her ancestor's intuition, able to weave predictions of outcomes that not even Arachnos' own could foresee. Even her husband's sacrifice could not deter them from trying to reach her. With no other choice, Lucille fled from Arachnos and found herself in caverns with only a voice whispering in the back of her mind.

Then, she finds it; Apollo's Foresight. With its rightful master in sight, the cloth wraps around and and Lucille could see everything. The sudden flood of futures to come nearly snaps her sanity and robs her eyesight from her. When she emergerd from its depths, hundreds were erased overnight from Lucille's newfound power.

And in her grief did she come with a new name;

Dominatriea.
