Information |
Lamia Godwin (ラミア・ゴドウィン) was an Imperial Princess of the Sacred Vollachia Empire who participated in the Imperial Selection Ceremony. Playing a key role in Prisca Benedict's childhood, Lamia actively hunted down and killed her siblings during the Imperial Selection Ceremony until she perished at the hand of Prisca after betraying her and besieging the Abellux Castle.
In Arc 7 and Arc 8, Lamia and many of her deceased family members were resurrected as zombies during the Great Disaster. After confronting her brother and Spica, her name was eaten and she was finally put to rest.
Appearance[]
Lamia had red blonde hair, glossy drooping eyes, and an alluringly shaped body with large breasts. She wore a long black dress with an outer crimson garment that matched the color of her eyes. The top had long sleeves that extended down from the elbow, and they had a crest on them. Additionally, Lamia had a penchant for accessories. She could be seen wearing a black head accessory and a green necklace.
As a zombie, she possesses pale skin bereft of color, various cracks that run across her body, pitch-black sclera, and radiant golden irises.
Personality[]
Lamia was a confident and self-assured woman who used cunning and manipulative methods to fulfill her ends. She was cruel, ruthless, and vicious, willing to use any means necessary to achieve her goals, including deceit and violence. Her words sounded as sweet as honey while dripping with malice and sarcasm. She was adept at manipulating others with charm and using them as resources when necessary. Lamia was also blessed with great intellect and had a talent for political tact, yet she also had the foresight to listen to the recommendations of her former advisor, Berstetz Fondalfon.
As shown, Lamia, never really had much attachment to her half-siblings and was fine with manipulating them for her own ends. As shown where she lied to her half-brother Barthroy Fitts in order to give her an edge in the beginning of the Selection Ceremony by pretending that she genuinely hated the idea of killing her half-siblings for the throne, only to then poison him to death when his guard was down. As revealed, the only half-brother Lamia genuinely cared about and admired was Vincent and that she had originally wanted to befriend him and team up together with him when she was younger. But upon seeing the close relationship he had with Prisca, Lamia immediately realized she wouldn't be able to gain Vincent's absolute loyalty unless she died first. Although Lamia was thrilled by those who pose a challenge to her, like Vincent and Prisca, she ultimately came to hate Prisca in particular, even laughing with regret that she had not previously killed her younger sister moments before her own death.
As Lamia willingly cooperated with Sphinx after becoming a zombie, her mind was not subject to the manipulation that many of the other undead experienced during the Great Disaster.[1]
History[]
Lamia was born as part of the Godwin family, a family which held the rank of Counts in the Vollachia Empire. At the age of nine, Lamia turned the tide of an internal rebellion against the Godwin family with her personal force, the Pruning Corps. As a result, she became the head of the family.
At the age of sixteen, Lamia took part in the Imperial Selection Ceremony. She perished at the hands of Prisca Benedict after her attempt to lay siege to the Abellux Castle failed with Cecilus Segmunt's elimination of the Pruning Corps.
