Description: A thin woman, she clearly needs to put on some weight, but she still has a lot of muscle. She is bundled in multiple layers and is prepared for a desert trek wearing a turban that covers her face most of the time. She wears a colorful flower in her white crest. Her gold eyes are slightly larger than normal.

Personality: She will use flattery and sarcasm to attack and weaken her opponents. Despite her formidable combat skills she remains a coward. 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, Kadana is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Her mother raised her in a mountain cabin. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert to a summer home near a ruined castle. She would wander through that ruined castle 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 desert due to the painful memories there. Kadana took refuge in the ruined castle and found the beat up shortspear and armor she uses now. She has made many enemies by not giving into corruption and outing many instances of it.
