Description: This exceptionally lanky woman prefers to wear fine silks, though has several suits of combat armor for her hunting needs. Her brown hair is braided into rings. Her eyes, though not visible through her cowl, are green.

Personality: Her voice, at times compared to that of a Nymph, lambasts those who consider themselves "civilized" with snide, belittling remarks; the subtle growl she speaks with growing louder in doing so, one can find it most pronounced, despite the otherwise natural purity of her tone. She has a habit of throwing herself into exceedingly dangerous situations.

History: She got into the Painter business at a young age. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the island to a summer home near a large cave. She would wander through that large cave and adventure through it for days. One day while adventuring a terrible storm took place and she was stranded inside. Her family spent the next few days looking for her, and could only assume she was dead when it came time to leave. The family never returned to the island due to the painful memories there.
