Narinder || CULT OF THE LAMB

Narinder has dark gray [almost black] fur, three eyes with red sclera and pupils and black irises, and two tall and pointed ears. His crown has two curved ears and a red eye, but he does not wear this for long as he gives it to The Lamb. The Lamb agrees to be his vessel. His face is covered by a veil made of black thread, similarly to his disciples, Aym and Baal, and the Knucklebones players Flinky, Klunko, and Shrumy.

Narinder, as revealed by Shamura, is the true name of The One Who Waits. He was formerly one of the Bishops of the Old Faith, and is the entity that saves the life of the Lamb, demanding they form and lead a cult in his name as repayment.[1] He is also the 3rd oldest of his siblings.

After the Lamb defeats him, he shrinks to the same size of the Lamb, though he keeps his head shape and two of his eyes while his third eye remains closed. He wears a grey ragged shirt, the same as the other non-recruited followers. His eyes have white sclera, black irises, and white pupils as followers.

Narinder is uncaring, calculating, and treacherous, as evidenced by his willingness to try to kill his own siblings and the Lamb that faithfully served him. He sees the Lamb and the cultists as nothing more than tools to meet his ends.

He takes joy in seeing what cruelty the Lamb is capable of, complimenting their ruthlessness in crusades, in sacrificing followers, or in selling Ratau out to a murderer.

He feels entitled to his powers and the Red Crown, taking offense if the Lamb should defy his "divine right," him having given the Lamb his crown only out of necessity. When he is defeated and robbed of his powers, he continues to berate the Lamb. Should the Lamb spare Narinder's life, he will call them a coward before yelling at them not to recruit him, his ego bruised by the prospect of servitude.

As a follower, he keeps a somewhat callous personality and finds ways to insult the Lamb over minor things. However, his subsequent quests show he might have a softer side (which he denies, when brought flowers after contemplating the death of Leshy).
