Description: This woman is well dressed, but even with her fine clothing she looks run-down, and sports empty pouches on her belt. Her hair is brown, silky, and of moderate length. She has gleaming, smiling brown eyes.

Personality: She believes there is no problem she cannot solve with sufficient elbow grease and persistence, if it is the best or most economic solution matters not. Her respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to her, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, she tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Dee is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: She was born blind and as such lacked many opportunities for work. She couldn't stand her childhood mentor and eventually formed a pact with her mentor's previously failed apprentice to rebel.
