He refuses to be seen by his followers while in his incomplete revenant form, hiding until he has consumed enough flesh. Goals or Motivations: To create "angels on earth" through a Rite of Rebirth, attempting to forge beings equal or superior to Cenobites without actually sending them to Hell.

He brings prophetic visions to share with the cult from these journeys. Notable Relationships: Marlowe – The charismatic leader of the Scarlet Church. Sister of Mercy & Charlotte – His first two attempts at crafting angels, who were transformed and gained immense power but were flawed versions of Bruno’s vision. Eremites – He views them as extensions of their puzzle boxes, easy to solve, submissive in their ease. The Cenobites – Bruno has silently grown to dislike the Cenobites. Seeing them appear during rituals serves as a reminder of his own imperfection and his inability to create such angels on earth.

Since her arrival, she has been largely uninterested in the Scarlet Church’s rituals and practice, and spends most of her time in the club drinking martinis. Zora claims to know more of what’s going on with the Configuration, Cenobites, and Rite of Rebirth. She refuses to share the knowledge with others as uncovering a Configuration’s secrets is part of solving them. Marlowe finds her lack of answers frustrating. Bruno finds her unsettling. She has long gray hair, olive skin, a romani accent and wears loose purple harem pants and a brown top.

7. #7Cenobites

   Keys: priests, demons, demon, cenobites, cenobite

   Cenobites are extra-dimensional beings created by Leviathan out of humans. The Cenobites are native to the Labyrinth and can only affect the mortal world when someone summons them. They are a monastic order devoted to the exploration of extreme sensation. According to the Scarlet Church teachings: “The Cenobites are divine now, but it was not always so. As we in the Scarlet Church aspire to transcend mortality, so did the Cenobites of the Labyrinth- for all of them were once as human as we are. Humans, feeble and numb. But Leviathan deemed them worthy of more, and granted them their angelic forms. Why should the Revealer not bestow the same gifts upon us?” {Important: Cenobites require consent to take a person. Solving the puzzle box is generally considered consent, but if someone solves it without understanding what it is or is forced to solve it, the Cenobites will refuse to take them.}

LeMarchand is believed to have created 270 puzzle boxes and 30 buildings that were puzzle boxes. Others have created additional boxes over the centuries, including Cenobites Angelique and Orno. But LeMarchand’s Boxes remain the most famous. Each puzzle box is guarded by an Eremite. According to the Scarlet Church teachings: “It is not enough to solve a Configuration. To be worthy, one must truly know their desires, articulate them. It cannot be left to the subconscious. We must know our hearts. That is what the Cenobites demand.”

10. #10Rite of Rebirth

    Keys: angel, Rite of Rebirth, Cenobite on Earth

According to the Scarlet Church teachings: “In the time of sin and excess, an explorer of the deepest sensation prepares to surrender their remaining humanity. A revenant is anointed with the power to catalyse the Rite, and sublimates only those Marked by the Genesis Configuration. Then the essences of the Configuration is incubated within the chosen, and the Cenobites attend to the explorer’s ascension.” {In reality, known only to the Cenobites, the Rite of Rebirth will take one woman who solves the Genesis Configuration to hell and return her as a pregnant revenant – the Revenant Mother. She will then consume the flesh of the Marked Ones to birth an Ascended Cenobite.}

Eremites keep a lair, usually in a sewer or under a bridge; the bedding and mementos of their victims are organized like a rat’s nest. Most eremites openly offer their puzzle box to interested parties. According to the Scarlet Church teachings: “The Scarlet Church has had the honor of playing host to a number of Eremites in our quest for the Genesis Configuration. Though we cannot understand the full scope of their machinations, they are to be treated with the utmost respect; they are the spawn of angels, and we desire their favor.”

18. #18Revenant

    Keys: resurrected, revenants, immortal, undying, Revenant, resurrection

    A revenant is someone brought back from the dead. First blood is spilled upon the ground where the person died or on a sigil that replaces the specific location. This causes their skeleton and soul to form from the blood. The revenant will be in immense pain in this stage and desperate for food. Eating a single person causes the musculature and some organs to regrow. Several more bodies are needed to complete the resurrection.

They show signs of decay and may be missing skin or body parts. They show zombie-like behaviors including eating flesh. They can speak but only communicate simplistic desires or despair. According to the Scarlet Church teachings: “The rejects of the Labyrinth are a sad object of study. None are more unfortunate than those deemed to be unworthy of a body to call their own. The path for such a reject is to gain form by amassing other, marginally worthier souls.” The amassed Unworthy become an Embracer.

20. #20Embracer

    Keys: Amassed Unworthy, Embracers, mass of unworthy, Embracer

    According to the Scarlet Church teachings: The mass of Unworthy combining "can be dubbed an Embracer, which is a rather innocuous-sounding name for what is essentially a hybrid between a slug and a tumor. The amalgam of limbs and organs was never designed to be put together in such a way, and the result is something that only knows how to grope, molest, and multiply. Such a thing should remain locked away, if not incinerated. Even the slightest touch of this creature begins to consume one’s sense of self.
