Vittoria Cindergrave
the Withermoon Countess
Named for the victory that burned to cinders before the grave could be closed.
Power
You can make a patch of moonlight become a hungry rot that consumes any organic matter it touches, but the patch always also consumes a memory of yours — you forget something, and you cannot choose what.

You are standing in a field of moonflowers that have never bloomed, waiting for a cloud to uncover the moon. Your left hand holds a bone comb; your right holds a handful of ash. You have been combing the ash into the flowers' roots for three nights now. Nobody told you this is how you would learn to rot what is already dead — you figured it out yourself.
