Who is the horned lady on the front cover

[Clown Fiesta]

Title, just curious as to who she is, whether she is a play able character, recruitable ally or an NPC.

If I'm understanding to whom you are referring, she starred in one of the earlier trailers where they gave some info about her in the description.

That's Areelu Vorlesh, the one who created the World Wound in the first place.

She's a Half Fiend, and her role in the story is kind of ambiguous right now. At least up to the events of Chapter 4, she seems to be an ally of sorts. But since the demo cuts off before chapter 5 and 6, we don't know what her end goal is.

[Slayer Seraph]

She's likely your average sexy lady to attract buyers, of course.
Ok, joking I have no idea.

[Schutzengel]

The final boss.

you should at least put a spoiler tag no ? its not like you basically gave half the story in that sentence. discovering who she is, IS part of the enjoyment of the game...

to reply, you without spoilers.

no, you cant play her, no you can't recruit her at least from what is available in the beta.

who she is will be revealed during the gameplay if you are unfamiliar with the WoTR campaign, and what she really wants... well we don't really know.

The short of it:

she initially fronts more or less as the main villain, but there are hints about how the truth could be more complex than it appears at first.

thanks all!

No it isn't. She pretty much introduces who she is as soon as you meet face to face. There's no mystery to uncover.

And unless you're a seasoned Pathfinder player, or have knowledge of the adventure path this game is based on, the reveal about Areelu Vorlesh isn't going to carry much impact with the player.

In my case, I know practically nothing about the adventure path, and had never even touched Pathfinder until Kingmaker came out.

As was stated above, she is Areelu Vorlesh, one of people responsible for the Worldwound. If you want more information, try the Pathfinder Wiki

Guessing we cant romance her like you could in kingmaker with the plant lady?

As a demon, she is metaphysically incapable of 'romance.' Everything she does is utterly dedicated to fulfilling her own self interests.

Arueshalae is an exception to the rule, because she literally has divine intervention messing with her head. But for any other demon, it is impossible for them to love anybody but themselves.

In the original AP, Areelu was a half-fiend (half-succubus to be specific), not a full demon. No idea if that's changed in the game.
