character

Lucia Mar

Lucia massacres the Beijing opposition, secretly supplies five ninth-floor fast-travel modules, and promises to kill Donut and Mongo on the next floor.

Story so far

Lucia avoids the floor's card mechanics by exhausting her weak automatic totems, then uses her own inventory and magic to slaughter monsters and crawlers. A teleport trap kills Fang and his wife, giving her their stairwell key.

She waits invisibly for Li Jun's group and, saying Florin asked her to help, drops five Tier 3 Doggie Door upgrades. The modules should not yet be available, and Mordecai suspects she stole them during a show appearance.

Her friendly manner abruptly ends before she descends. She says she has saved something special to settle her score with Donut and will kill both Donut and Mongo on the ninth floor.

Appearance

A dangerous young crawler with a dog, five glowing door modules at her feet and a hidden weapon held back.
