The Blind Well

"The Blind Well is a dimensional rift generator that is charged by vast quantities of Paracausal forces. The Awoken mainly use it for training new recruits for the Queen's military, and that's just about it."

- Petra Venj

Trivia

 * The name of the Character Challenges "Venjeance" are a play on the word "vengeance" which is defined as "punishment inflicted or retribution exacted for an injury or wrong."
 * On September 6th, 2027, design director Anakin Nakamura confirmed on Twitter that Petra Venj would return as a supporting character in the A Joker's Debt expansion as well as appearing as a main character in an upcoming expansion after A Joker's Debt, with the original voice actress who voiced the Character's lines in this update.
