Though less modest and more hasty in her reactions to snap at those who irritate her, Riswynn is combative with any and all who dare try her patience in the slightest.

History: She got into the Sage business at a young age. When she was little, her rather wealthy family often ventured across the mountains 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 mountains due to the painful memories there. Riswynn took refuge in the large cave and found the beat up scimitar and armor she uses now. She became a Sage soon after.
