==The Mysterious Street Artist==
<blockquote>''"The Vandal has been operating for years. "Shopfront defaced with glim and graffiti," declares one headline. "Newlyweds beset by dizziness upon discovery of Art in their garden," trumpets another."''<ref name="our lady" />
 
''"Amidst the outrage, there is only unlikely speculation. The Vandal is a disguised nun, an aristocrat, or an opera singer! She can crawl like a spider and sing like a whale!  There is nothing of substance, not even a mention of the scorched symbols."''<ref name="our lady" /></blockquote>The Moth-cloaked Vandal is an elusive street artist who has been spreading her mystifying and seemingly arcane artwork along [[Fallen London]]'s streets, and even in citizens' backyards. Hunted by the [[Ministry of Public Decency]] as well as a secret society devoted to catching her, she roams London to elude them and pursue her art.

<blockquote>''"Because of my heritage, I am as much a blasphemy as these moths,"''<ref name="our lady" /></blockquote>The Moth-cloaked Vandal is a young half-[[Snuffer]] girl. Orphaned and entrusted to the care of [[God's Editors]], she eventually learned of her forbidden parentage; this drove her to join [[Revolutionaries|anarchist]] and [[Liberationist]] circles to understand herself and her abilities. Her study of the [[The Correspondence|Correspondence]] and the [[The Great Chain of Being|Great Chain of Being]] led to an about-face in her beliefs, as she began to worship the [[Judgements]], spurring her artistic acts of penance across London for what she perceives as the city's sins against the Great Chain. Her ability to change her facial features at will has allowed her to escape capture - but with the Ministry, her former anarchist allies, and the mysterious Society in Pursuit of Moths searching for her, her time in London is quickly running out.
