Talk:Nameless Usurper/@comment-17773214-20140418095415

The Nameless Usurper is actually Licia of Lindeldt. When you first meet her in the tower of flame you find out she's a con artist that, while devout to miracles, does so for profit ultimately. She has a freudian slip when you exhaust her entire dialogue in the tower of flame that reveals this, and she advertises miracles to you when near the rotunda device like a merchant rather than someone looking for fellow believers like a normal cleric would likely have done. Still, for the time being she is friendly and even gives you her armor set/bell chime if you have a faith of 30+, although it reveals her sinister nature in the description and suggests that this is her way of trying to get on your good side.

Unfortunately being greedy and a con artist, she starts to notice overtime that you are constantly loaded with souls of all kinds, and she finally decides to loot you for them. She "disguises" herself by not using miracles (or at least I never encountered her using miracles while invaded as a red phantom) and only using knives so that you don't clue in to the idea that it's actually her.

Her fate is sealed once you find the crushed eye orb which is basically a destroyed black eye orb from Dark Souls 1. It goes crazy when near her and, since it's a tool that seeks revenge for you against anyone that has wronged you, it naturally detects Licia as a traitor to you that has tried to kill you on multiple occasions. Licia actually admits to her wrongdoings and states that, since you have invaded her, she won't feel guilty about trying to kill you "this time" (aka she was the hooded nameless usurper from the previous failed assassination attempts).

As a final token of her evil ways, she drops the soothing sunlight miracles which is stated in the description to have been stolen from the Lindelt monastery a long time ago and was never recovered.

All in all, I really did not feel bad one bit about killing that backstabber. May she be trapped barefoot in the lego factory for all eternity for all that garbage she put me through.
