Lady of the Court is Alachia, The Blood Queen
Jungle Cat could be Hualpa, Leader of Amazonia, Grear Feathered Serpent
Hecate .... no clue
Usmondo ... no clue

The corruption mentioned comes from repeated use of the Blood magics.

A locus is a source of magical energy, I'd treat it a sort of free power foci
and being extremely powerful in all respects .. and would even retain it's
magical properties in the void of a fovae or other no-mana zone.

From what I have gathered from the Aztlan book and others, the compact is an
agreement between some of the immortals and others that should the signs
foretelling the arrival of the Enemy begin to show themselves that they
should begin to move to either counter the Enemies agents or to warn the
people of Earth (though I seriously doubt they would do the warning part at
all) ...
