So her backstory is basically that she used to be a warrior of light Mergo. Very famous, very nice, but the dark army turned her and now she is a brutal demolisher of civilizations and eradicator of light... or is she?
anyway anyone who wants can read the story. Here is the base concept and updated model pictures.

Mergit's Story:
There are many rumers about a warrior of light named Mergo.
She was a beacon of hope to all who saw her. Her left hand held a shield of a size and weight orcs would gawk at and her right always held the holy scripture.
With her left she would protect and serve the people. No man could breach her defenses. If Mergo's shield was between a threat and an innocent, you could rest assured they would come to no harm.
There is a tale told that Mergo once defended a whole village from invasion by blocking a single gate for 5 days and 5 nights until reinforcements arrived. No lives were lost in those 5 days on either side, such was the power of her left hand alone.
In her right hand she wielded such divine blessings that songs were sung of her resurrecting the dead and curing a city of the black plague in a day.
But one terrible night, The dawn of a war with the forces of the dark itself she was captured by an arch demon Azazel. The fiend bargained with the life of Mergo's comrade. Without hesitation the stalwart warrior dropped her Shield and submitted to the enemy for her friend's life.
8 months passed and not even a whisper of Mergo's fate was heard. Moral crumbled and the people began to lose faith. The forces of darkness pushed deeper into their land until one day a tale was told.
A demon named Mergit had been seen. Her ferocious onslaughts left scores of soldiers mortally wounded. Never once did she march with an army.
When Mergit was seen she was always alone, but only tragedy followed. Death was like a robe, ever trailing behind her.
On her left arm a gauntlet of such size and brutality men would weep at the very sight of it. In her right the power to suck away the very light from the world, bestowing darkness and dread upon any unlucky enough to see her terrible visage.
The similarities between Mergo and Mergit did not go unnoticed. The soldiers seethed with hatred. The gal of the dark legions to mock the memory of such a great warrior fueled their lust for vengeance and blood.
Many honor Mergo's death. Proclaiming the demon Mergit to be a failed attempt at demorelizing their army and bolstering the ever burning wish for revenge.
Less talk of Mergo's betrayal. Of the torture and heinous acts she endured until finally she broke Mergit was borne.
Even fewer whisper of the time she broke free and begged her former allies for help, but her mutilated and disgusting demonic form appalled them and she was shunned by her own people and closest companions
None know for certain of her fate but everyone is sure of this.
Mergit is here and the light has met it's match...
