Lumella was chosen at a young age to be the sacred eye at the holy temple of the great beholder. Duties of the sacred eye usually involve sitting at a little shrine all day and telling people mundane facts about their future.

She bought herself robotically enhanced body transplants to remain as the temple's sacred eye: a loophole in the system allowed her to remain in her position "until she is no longer a child", so she artificially halted her ageing process.
She now spends her days lounging around the temple being a bítch and buying useless trash
