One theory that has been brought up before is the idea that Priscilla could be the daughter of Gwyn's first born and Velka. It does explain some ideas:

1. Gwyn's first born was banished because of some sort of incident that caused a loss of records of some sort. Velka was considered a rogue deity and might've used her relationship with him to get access to the records. This could explain why she is treated as anathema to the other gods (yet at the same time feared and respected to some degree as well). It's also a good explanation as to why Velka seems to associate herself with a world locked away from others (yet she still has influence to the outside world considering the giant crow) and why Gwyn's first born would get banished.

2. We know that humans can become dragons through magical means. The Covenant of the Everlasting Dragon is proof of this. Therefore Priscilla might not have a dragon as a parent and instead achieved this "half-dragon form" through magical means as well (ofc different from the covenant).

3. If idea one and two are correct, then it's easy to see why Priscilla was banished to the Painting World. She was the daughter of a rogue deity and a disgraced god. Furthermore, she was born with an extremely dangerous form of magic, the art of lifehunt, which was dangerous even to gods. If Priscilla ever rebelled against the gods for their actions against her parents then she had the capability to kill them, so they locked her away in the Painting World to make sure she could never be a threat to them.

4. Considering how many dangerous/forbidden items are found in the Painting World, Priscilla might've gotten her hands on a dragon artifact similar to those granted by the Ancient Dragon from the covenant. An undead dragon is present in the Painting World so there is likely going to be dragon artifacts in there as well, something the Gods wanted to keep away from humans in case they ever rebelled since they knew the Dragons once poised a serious threat to the gods.

Well, there's going to be numerous theories (kudos to From Software for creating a game with so many possibilities regarding the lore), but this is one I've come to accept so far.
