Description: This late middle aged woman is typically in her Fisher uniform and is in decent physical shape. She has styled her brown hair well, parting it to the right. Her blue eyes are slightly larger than normal.

Personality: She is a Fisher first and foremost. She believes firmly that knowledge should be universal. She is skeptical of what others tell her and is slow to trust.

History: Raised by wardens she was only a novice when giants swooped upon their monastery and killed most of the order. She sought a place where she would be rewarded solely on the merits of her skills. This search led her directly into Fisher work with an outfit from a few towns over. Fisher work suited her well, and with each successful project, she earned more gold and more respect from her peers. She remains aloof and afraid to be herself due to all the ideals others have placed upon her.

Motivation: She will attempt to ambush and attack anyone she thinks she can take on alone and try to knock them out with non-lethal damage. If successful, she will try to sell them to her slave-trader contact; and she is being blackmailed/forced/etc and this influences her actions
