Fastus

is the Cabalist of Vanity who mesmerizes opponents, whose symbol is the Vortex of Self Absorption.

As an Obsidian Cabalist, he is an ancient sorcerer of the Obsidian Order who has prolonged his life through twisted use of magic. This horrible entity represents the anti-virtue of Carnality, and seeks to fulfill the Dire Prophecies by laying siege to the towns of Novia. When the planet of Vanity is in a constellation, he will attack towns that have devotionals associated with that virtue. He wields a unique Hood of Vanity and a Gaudy Vile Spear artifact that players who are able to defeat them may be able to loot.
