Brethargna (Empath stories)

Brethargna is a character who is part of the EMPATH: The Luckiest Smurf story series. She is a female Schliphargon who is the leader of a group of female warriors loosely affiliated with the Talektharkon class of warriors within the Schliphargon race. Empath and Polaris ran into her during their travels around the world in the time of The Lost Year, and she was seeking out a worthy mate so she could bring forth a child on the world she was trapped in. She chose Empath as her potential worthy mate, but as Empath refused to violate his virtues in order to give Brethargna what she wanted, she pursued Empath relentlessly, tracking him and Polaris down like prey. Polaris chose to resolve the situation by offering himself in the place of Empath as Brethargna's worthy mate, which required him to challenge her in combat to prove his worthiness. Polaris accepted and proved himself worthy to mate with Brethargna, though afterward he felt as if he violated himself. Nevertheless, Brethargna got what she wanted, as Polaris sensed that she would soon become pregnant.
