The bee is more honored than other animals, not because she labors, but because she labors for others.
Premise:
Stephanie Lauter is a Lord in Black turned human, though she doesn't know it. Raised as a normal human by Mayor Solomon Lauter, she's spent her entire life unaware of her true nature. However, after summoning the Lords during the events of NPMD, her powers have been awakened, and are only growing stronger by the day.
General Lore
This contains only general ideas for this au, and no major spoilers, any spoilers will be below this section under 'Major Lore', and will be updated with each chapter. However, if you wish to go into this au blind, then do no click read more.
Stephanie' eldritch form is of that of a humanoid bee. Before being turned human, her true form was more monstrous but, due to spending her life as a human, her human form eventually became her true form. After awakening her powers, her true form settles on something in between the two.
At full power, she has two set of arms, bee wings on her back, and a set of stingers that can protrude her wrists in her upper arms.
She uses her powers to disguise herself.
Has the power to manipulate others into doing her bidding. It's one of the few powers that remained in her human form though it's a much weaker version).
Solomon knew her true identity and kept her at a distance because of it. While he was never truly unkind, he always viewed her more as a potential apocalypse he had to prevent than a daughter.
Steph is transfem. Eldritch gender is a fuck compared to human gender, and while her essence is feminine, it didn't translate 'correctly' to her human form.
Chose the name Stephanie because it subconsciously reminds her of her true true name, though she doesn't remember it.
Wanted to redraw steph in her lib form since the last time I did so was months ago and I grown in my art since then. This is a more 'clean' version of that form, I plan to make a horror version at a later date.
This is a roleplay/ask blog/general hq for "The Spawn of The Black & White", a 'steph is a lord in black' fic that I am in the process of writing.

Design
Steph's general design, made in picrew
Steph has two major forms: her human form, and her eldritch form
However, her 'true form' is complicated
As a baby, her eldritch form was her true form and only form. But, due to being turned human and spending her life thinking she is human, her human form eventually became her true form.
Summoning the Lords in Black reawakened her connection with her eldritch form and, as she becomes more powerful, aspects of that form bleed into her human form.
Eventually her true form becomes a hybrid of the two.
WARNING: The rest of this post contains spoilers. Read at your own risk. Also TW: Insects (bees), body horror, multiple limbs
In her eldritch form, Steph takes on characteristics of a bee.
She has bee wings and two sets of arms, obviously
She also has two stingers that can protrude from her wrists in her upper arms.
Eventually she develops a Lord-esque outfit in this form, consisisting of: a ripped, red, formal gown, sheer black gloves, and a tiara made of honeycomb.

Abilities:
(will be updated with new chapters)
Steph lost most of her abilities when she was turned human
However some managed to cling on, and the rest will return with time as her powers grow.
She has the ability to manipulate others into doing her bidding. She always just thought she was persuasive, but the power goes far beyond that.
Like the other Lords, Steph has the ability to shift her physical form at will. This power, has been severely weakened from her time as a human.
She can fly of course.
In her eldritch form, Steph has advanced senses, especially her sense of smell.
