Judging by the bloodshot nature of her eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine she has not slept for days.

Personality: She is irascible and easily irritated. She is submissive, is generally bored by everything, but will take part in whatever people ask of her. She is by nature obliging.

History: She was always a brilliant, if unscrupulous mind. While she appears to be a normal Half-Orc, she's... not quite right.
