Abandoned to a church orphange in Dedham during March of 1448, Philomena (warmly refered to as "Mother Philomena") is an iconic soup kitchen owner, chef, and nun both revered and worshiped by Commoners for her selfless role in imperial history and her generous contributions to TECT's culinary arts. Although proof of her existence historically is debated often, historians believe strongly in the theory that Philomena was based off an unknown woman who lived a similar life nearby Philomena's reported birthplace; regardless, records of her existance and actions have lead many others to believe in her existance as historically detailed. Philomena's signifigance to the Empire's history, culture, and culinary arts was enough to garner her immense esteem with people of all prestiges, even after her passing in 1565. To Christians, namely the Kirche der Königlich (Commoner Catholic Church) which Philomena belonged to, Philomena is revered as a Saint (canonized in 1802) and is often prayed to for guidance on morality, childcare, homecare, and culinary practices. Philomena's impact on the modern Church includes inspirations for programs, the backing of her original "Saint Philomena Congregation" (which operates soup kitchens and orphanages around the Empire), and even drawing inspiration from her actions in the past to address modern problems. In TECT Mythology, namely the cults surrounding herself and the culinary Angels, Philomena is worshiped as a Deputy Angel (often either an Angel herself or a Demi-Angel) to the Culinary Angel Küche.
