Description: She is of a modest build and height, but she carries herself more imposing than she is. She is wearing a long, brown, dusty cloak. Her white hair is cut short. This blue eyed westerner is not easily forgotten.

Personality: She is a Butcher first and foremost. She believes firmly that knowledge should be universal. 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, Williamina is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: Born the oldest of a large religious western family, she was no stranger to responsibility. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the desert 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 desert due to the painful memories there. Williamina took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up shortbow and armor she uses now. She has achieved small success as a Butcher.
