Lucy grew up in Rotting Blade, in the Demon Wastes, though it's unclear if she was actually born there - It's not unheard of for the thorp's ruler Vraria to send out minions that snatch away new subjects for her to rule over (See ECS p. 161f.). She herself doesn't know, as she was too young to remember at the time if she was ever kidnapped, and she most likely doesn't really care. (I'm sure there could be a theme song for this too, but I'm too lazy to look for one.) One year ago, Lucy just barely survived a fire which she had accidentally set herself by attempting to light a torch, leaving her badly burned and on the brink of death. As her soul was about to leave for Dolurrh, the essence of a fiend that had been slain or imprisoned nearby seeped into her body, reviving her and healing her burns. (Hilf Mir) This fusing process gave her some strange abilities, the most obvious - and directly dangerous - of which was the ability to hurl fire that burned as bright and hot as the sun itself (though the burns reappear briefly whenever she uses these flames). These abilities, of course, made Lucy a great asset to Vraria. Although she didn't (and still doesn't) know what "asset" means, exactly, stealing that pretty heart-shaped trinket and setting a fire around the place before fleeing seemed like a fun enough idea.
Here we go. I've decided to just go with what I already had and find some other excuse to turn my chasuble into a legacy item. Maybe the "essence" will try to take over at some point and be forced to move into the chasuble, or something.
The "fiend" can be whatever the DM wants. It might be a rajah, or just a devil/demon that was stupid enough to run afoul of some adventurers. Maybe it's the Elder Evil that Lemmy worships.
EDIT: A thought: Vraria could use
Mein Herz Brennt as a theme song. I think it fits night hags pretty well.
