Personality: Her tongue was cut out and she uses sign language. As she has aged she has sought to do reparations for her actions as a youth. She is also making sure that her compatriots who never received punishment for their crimes are brought to justice.

History: Her history is one of pain. She was disowned by both parents and raised among the slaves her parents kept. Ida was a troubled youth. She spent her days as a hard laborer instead of attending school, and spent her evenings with numerous mobsters and gang members. Ida decided she wanted neither the life of her mother nor that of the evil petty criminals she associated with. During her early adolescence, she took a sudden opportunity while working the docks and commandeered a vessel that was left unmanned. After months of barely getting by, Ida managed to ambush a major caravan with a load of valuables. Instantly wealthy, she made her way to the capital under a new identity.

She misses her home and complains about the freezing weather, even in summer.

History: She was born with several neurological imbalances, which makes sleep difficult for her. It may also be what makes her so good at details.
