Death-maiden
Death-maidens are dead House Escher's gang-members, that have been resurrected by the House's alchymyst fleshteks and turned into Escher's assassins, fixers and enforcers.[1]
Only those whose deeds have drawn the eyes of the fleshteks are chosen to become Death-maidens and have their bodies recovered and placed within amniotic tanks. From there, their blood is turned toxic by a transfusion of chems and the Death-maidens' minds are stripped of whatever shreds of humanity they once had. Once they are reborn, the Death-maidens are ordered to impose the will of House Escher in the Underhive and usually work alone, unless tasked with joining Escher gangs to enforce the interests of the House. Though it is not unheard of for entire gangs of Death-maidens to gather, when House Escher's matriarch council calls.[1]
