One of the Stoneborn, formed untold aeons ago with supreme command over rock. Her people shelter deep within the living earth, so whatever has forced Vv into the oppressive openness of the Dungeon must be dire indeed. But whatever it is, she's not talking...

“Beside the man stands a woman - of sorts. Her emulation of the human gender is
only superficial, a courtesy. Likewise the loose drapelike dress she wears is
not cloth. She has simply shaped a portion of her stiff substance to suit the
preferences of the fragile, mortal creatures among whom she currently moves.
From a distance the illusion would work to pass her off as a woman standing
still...

When she turns to the man - slowly; stone eaters are slow aboveground, except
when they aren't - this movement pushes her beyond artful beauty into something
altogether different. The man has grown used to it, but even so, he does not
look at her. He does not want revulsion to spoil the moment.”
-N.K. Jemisin, “The Fifth Season”. 2015.
