The Test: Trial by Knowledge (a Stygian patrol Reaped the woman, enthralling her at first; but her will and will proved herself worthier than the soulsteel mills, and she liberated once she oathed herself to the Legion of Paupers)
Comrades: Warren Earp, Jay Warwick, Virginia Bellona, Dustin Moriarty, Ira Rings, Alicia Hatfield
Key Event #1: War (she traveled with that patrol to California and to San Francisco, participating in the conflict that would help the Hiearchy solidify their control of the blossoming necropolis)
Key Event #2: Treachery (Lorilee proved herself a savvy political official in death; she was able to woo and win over freewraiths and independents and even a few Renegades to support Stygia's claim)
Key Event #3: Awe Wonder (gradually, she rose through the ranks in the local citadel based out of Alcatraz; only a couple decades in, she met and connected with the infamous Warren Earp, and their relationship matured into a professional partnership, aiding and abetting each others' Hierarchy "careers")
Key Event #4: Treachery (eventually she was able to make peace over long decades of strife between Stygia, the Renegades, and various Heretic factions in the city)
Transition: Victory (at last she was able to settle down in a pacified necropolis with her lover, Warren, yet remained wary of future trouble; she'd experienced enough strife and more than a few Harrowings over the decades to justify this caution)

Weakness
Whoregeld
Lorilee works for "the man". She always has, that's nothing new, except "the man" is the government in question, in this strange and hazardous afterlife world. She is loyal but manipulative and untrustworthy, and the duplicitous double-nature of her service has always poised a problem.
