Demon Profiling
LADRO
Translation: Thief
Appearance: Filmy, ghost-like, spectral forms
Why are they deadly?
They steal souls from any being that has one, whether inside or outside.
Previous Appearances in SNYSF:
Chapter 7: Steals Professor Souris' daemon, Sylvia
Chapter 8: Steals Dame Hannah's daemon, Saelem
Chapter 20: Tried to steal Pan and Kirjava from Will and Lyra. Because of Will and Lyra's witch-like powers, Pan and Kirjava are pulled into Darkness (the world where all the stolen daemons go) but Will and Lyra remain with their consciousness.
Origin:
Originally, they were called Specters. But they evolved over the 20 years and became daemon thieves, being able to steal any daemon, child or adult. They come from the Abyss and from the Darkness.
A/N: Hope this explains who the Ladro are and what they're doing. Chapter 20 will take a while, but it'll be worth it. With exams this week and the next, I;m scared that it might be very long. I've dropped hints in this about the next chapter, so this should suffice for the time being :)
I shall go cower in a corner now.
