Description: She prefers to wear white clothing when she does not wear armor. Her silver hair is greying along the sides and has receded to reveal a widow's peak. She has gleaming, smiling brown eyes.

Personality: She is highly sensitive about her name. She loathes it, but will not take any guff about it from anyone. 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, Engong is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Engong was born to in a poor docking district. She spent her early days working in the same smith shop her father was employed at, doing general labor. Her parents died when she was young, and she was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Engong grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Engong. Recently she has begun working with bootleggers and crooks.
