Description  "He has been saddled with a more fitting form, at least one fit for his punishment. But we all know nothing can repay his crimes against the order of things. Now leave me mortal, or I shall turn your bones to ash."
  Quote from a Prinicpum Shard of Va'at, via interrogation / summoning.

 Shards embody their parents to a tee. Their bodies are formed by the wants and desires of the parent and the greater the shard, the more intelligent they become. However, this means that can cause the shard to rebel against the Dark Totem they serve. This becomes more likely with the game the Dark Totems play, as other totems will push shards to undermine their masters in their "great game". This is no more the state of things than with the constant war between to dark totems whom could not be anymore opposite. Cl'Leron, the Dark Totem of Madness, born of the second generation, and Va'at, Dark Totem of Order, of the third generation. These two have been in a war that has paned the time since the birth of the latter, known as the grey war. At the end of every decade, the two armies of harsh order and unyielding madness shall clash in a great campaign to be the center of the mind. With this, many shards have become traitors, and have been destroyed for it. But one whom is most infamous from this continuous war, is Luce'Falnat, the dishonored one. 

 Once the most beautiful of the Ophanum, the highest rank of all of Va'at's shards. Luce'Falnat was always at the head of these offences, a force to be feared by the malformed hordes of Cl'Leron. After many years of war, the lord of madness deiced that something had to be done, and unfortunately, Cl'Leron's intelligence is nearly unmatched. With in the inter war period, he whispered ideas into the dreams of Luce'Falnat, ideas of grandeur, rulership, conquest, the ideas which would lead to his downfall. But there was more, many more shards went to Luce'Falnat's side, seeing him as the new Dark Totem of Order. So great was his fame, that even other Ophanum changed sides. By the time the next grey war began, Va'at was met with half his army turning on him, a mistake they would not live to regret. Cl'Leron won that war without a single attack mustered and Va'at killed more of his shards than most could imagine, except for Luce'Falnat. To set an example, he was malformed into the beast one sees above. Now a mere passenger to his own body, a body wholly loyal to the his master, Luce'Falnat is but a small white torso, only able to "convince" his other half to do what he wants.   

 A vicious temperament and animalistic hunger, the body knowns nothing of what form Luce'Falnat once was. All it knows is that there is Va'at and nothing but Va'at. Due to this the body has little regard for it's own safety, charging into full battle lines like a man (or in this case beast) possessed. Its huge claw rip though most metals, its arms stretch for they no muscles or bones to limit them, and the protrusions on its shoulders can act as horns promoting Va'at's glory (though most mortals can only perceive it as damaging noise). If there is anything to go off of with this monster, it is that it should not be toyed with, while Luce'Falnat can be more easily persuaded.
