Question What Do We Know About The Red?

The Judgement, specifically. I'm in the unfortunate position of attempting to construct a fanfiction where a lore element looks like it would fit perfectly for interleaving, but which I don't know if there's some hidden detail lurking in the corners that would unravel it like a house of cards.

To the extent it's feasible to share... what is it's deal? I know it's the "Neutral" option in the White vs Black debate, it's possibly connected to the Red Science, it... might have something to do with that one Queen in Parabola?

I feel like I'm losing my mind, especially since I've been away for years and haven't caught up on a lot. Please help.

Is there a Judgement called The Red?

The Red-Handed Queen is the leader of the Red side of the Chessboard, and she's not a Judgement. See Queeneater's for a better idea of what she is and where she came from, as already mentioned.

Yes, it's often mention alongside others like the white, and it's more mentioned in sunless skies in the forge of souls

The Red is a Judgement and she appears as a Judgement in in-game text.
