Sting and Venom

A brother and sister team of Rippers working for One.

They are Archers.

Venom is the girl, loading the arrows with magic.

Sting is the Archer who fires the arrow.

They appear to have little personality outside their own interests, and prefer to take orders only from One. Sting usually does the talking for them both.

One has set things up so the magical arrows directed all the power of their victim/target into a specific battery--in one battle they shot Alice Purcel l, which blocked her from her Wonderland powers while siphoning it all into the Ripper Mountain, making her almost impossible to defeat. We are happy to inform you that when they did it to Emma Crewe, her Skeleton Key powers 'overloaded the system'.

Sting and Venom cut Alice from her heritage, her identity, and her life when they shot her with their arrow. At her distress, Selva Chopper invoked one of her rare wicked spells and terrified Sting into revealing any Writer could remove the arrow's power. With luck, that will be soon.

Awful as they were, Sting and Venom are currently being absorbed by their own master, One. What will happen to them after that is unknown.

They're awful people, but it is quite possible they don't deserve One. Very few people do.
