The Carmine Beast is an Other which appears in Pale.

The Beast is killed during the prologue of Pale - her death is the inciting incident of the story.

The death of the Carmine Beast is being investigated by Verona Hayward, Lucy Ellingson, and Avery Kelly.

Appearance/Description

The Carmine Beast bears resembles to an enormous canine. She is seen in the prologue to be dripping with blood, and followed wherever she goes by the moon overhead, dripping blood down on her.

Abilities

The Beast was immensely powerful, perhaps the most powerful Other in the region.

She held influence over large portions of Ontario and Manitoba, although not the areas under the domain of Lords. All savage and violent Others within her domain were under her sway; she could send them on errands, and her presence served to regulate their population. The Beast served as a kind of personification of brutal justice, and was among those that could serve as a kind of Supreme Court of last resort for the region.

History

Prologue - Blood Run Cold

The Carmine Beast died under mysterious circumstances. Louise Bayer followed her as she headed further into Kennet before seemingly disintegrating into stains of blood. <ref>Across the rink, she saw, there was a loose silhouette shape stained into the ice, matching a leg and paw of the great beast. It extended, she realized, into the trees at the back of the rink, and onto the mountain of snow that had been built up over months of the parking lot being plowed and the ice of two rinks being cleared off. It could well be the very last thing in Kennet to fully thaw. On that mountain of snow, if she walked around, she could see the general shape of the thing’s ear and muzzle. More of the stain extended across the outer perimeter of the parking lot.

All crimson. Blood.

She hugged her arms to her body, shivering, as she walked the length of it, around three-quarters of the parking lot’s perimeter. The red stain was thickest where the beast’s neck would have been. Blood was sinking into frozen ground and snow in a pool as large around as the rink was.

It was only now that she finally felt cold.’ - Excerpt from Blood Run Cold 0.0</ref>
