[[folder:Precursors '''(Unmarked Spoilers)''']]

A mysterious humanoid species that arrived on Terra untold millennium ago and seeded the development of the intelligent life that would become the Ancient races of Terra, and also implanted Originium deep within the planet and thereby caused the emergence of Oripathy among it's populace, [[AwfulTruth something that is revealed to not be an accident]]. They are also the species the Doctor, Priestess, and the original Trevor Friston hail from.

* SufficientlyAdvancedAlien: From what we know of them, they were an insanely advanced civilization capable of seeding intelligent life on other worlds and developing a [[RealityWarper abstract resource like Originium]] in the first place to aid them in their efforts. In fact, this seems to be on the short end of their capabilities, as Priestess demonstrates how effortless the bounds of their technology is by ''influencing planetary orbits'' for the purpose of making [[MundaneUtility a song composition]] to the Doctor.

* TheImmune: Given they are the originators of Originium, it is clear they have to have a resilience to withstand becoming infected with Oripathy, which is revealed to be the case as to why the Doctor is so special and why deciphering the mystery behind how they can withstand it's effects are [[HoistByTheirOwnPetard the best chance Terra has to defeating the plague of Oripathy once and for all]].

A mysterious woman from the Doctor's past that they only have vague memories of. She once put the Doctor into the sarcophagus on Rhode Island an indeterminate amount of time ago, promising to reunite with them one day.

* ChekhovsGunman: She's first seen in a flashback in Episode 8. One scene in the 3rd Anniversary PV shows her wearing a Rhodes Island jacket, heavily implying she'll play a role in later chapters. Vigilo reveals that PRTS's first memory was a picture of Priestess standing side by side with the Doctor on the deck of the Rhodes Island landship, and that no known person on the landship (including the Doctor themselves) currently has the authority to view it.

* ScrewTheRulesItsTheApocalypse: It is implied that she is not afraid to break conventions to do what is needed for the preservation of their civilization. Doctor is concerned when she influenced the planetary orbits to create a musical gift for Doctor. In one of Doctor's story to Amiya, the description of a woman scientist who is willing to do what it takes to save her people fits well with the description of Priestess.

* WalkingSpoiler: Knowing about her spoils the reveal that the Doctor forgot about her despite promising her that they ''wouldn't''.

** Said scene also makes her bond with the Doctor vague. While it confirms that they ''aren't'' related (the Doctor first met her when they rescued her from a planetary disaster, unaware that she was perfectly safe on another planet entirely and even guided their spaceship there), she says that "intimate" is ''vastly'' downplaying the full scope of their bond. She even notes that the two sometimes "hold hands" ''without using their hands'', which makes one wonder if they were PlatonicLifePartners or [[ImpliedLoveInterest something more]].

* AmbiguousSituation: One giant question mark looms over her shared scene with the Doctor in Episode 14: is it a newly-unlocked memory that the Doctor gains from the harsh sight of active Originium overwhelming their immediate surroundings, a physical location where the Doctor's actual body resides as their consciousness interacts with Terra from afar, or is the Doctor's time in Terra ''[[DeadAllAlong an echo of a civilization long destroyed]]''? The scene ends with her saying goodbye to the Doctor with full confidence that they will reunite with her eventually.

* IdenticalStranger: She bears a very strong resemblance to Amiya, looking like an older version of her without the Cautus ears. Although there are no evidence that they are related in any way.

* AmbiguousSituation: One giant question mark looms over her shared scene with the Doctor in Episode 14: is it a newly-unlocked memory that the Doctor gains from the harsh sight of Originium obliterating their immediate surroundings, a physical location where the Doctor's actual body resides as their consciousness interacts with Terra from afar, or is the Doctor's time in Terra ''[[DeadAllAlong an echo of a civilization long destroyed]]''?

The scene ends before anything is answered.

* WhatMeasureIsANonHuman: Discussed by her during "Babel", as she does acknowledge the concerning situation of Terra and the plights of it's people with earnest empathy... but when reflecting on the morality with the Doctor's original personality of [[GreaterScopeVillain their actions in having caused the situation in the first place]], she is immediately quick to dismiss the value of their existence over the necessity of their mission and their own world's survival before urging the Doctor to do the same while their own guilt continues to grow.

* EarlyBirdCameo: Downplayed. Episode 14 heavily implies that '''''she''''' is [[TheVoice the mysterious voice]] in the very first scene of the game who compels the Doctor to remember the Date December 23, even if it would send them into peril.
