She has the ability of fire manipulation, a trait of brute force. Every time a flame sparks from her fingertips, she can feel it consume her, slowly but surely. She continues to hoist a flaming sword high above her head, despite the regret she knows will eventually follow, in order to be of use. Still, she refrains from any creation of vast amounts of fire, preferring to keep it focused on her sword, as the less she must generate, the less energy it saps from her.

Lean, Athletic
Harsh eyes set in harsh face. She is tall, but not elegant. Her stride exudes power, confidence. She is the embodiment of pure force. She would not look like a warrior if it were not for the strength that ripples beneath her exterior. Her body is as harsh as her eyes are, muscles and limbs like stone that betray no weakness. Despite the wicked strength she has acquired, hours put into training, she has never built her size. She remains lean, due in part to her specialized training, in part to her natural build. Her build is an advantage, allows her to retain her speed and agility without sacrificing strength. Piercing emerald green eyes sit beneath a strong brow, surrounded by sharp features. She is strangely beautiful in a frightening way, but in a manner that is meant to be admired for afar. Only from afar. Blonde locks fall around her face, kept out of her eyes by a small braid made of her bangs pinned to her crown.

A cool-headed soldier above all else, she maintains her composure even if she is losing all else. Her only duty is to her country, not to people. She is not friendly, certainly not warm. Difficult to approach is perhaps putting it lightly. Trained from birth, she is everything a warrior should be. She does not let her emotions rule her actions, only logic. Years of practice have allowed her to think clearly in even the most heated battles. She has not had an easy life, and she continues to subject herself to difficulty. Warmth, comfort, joy, these things are for the weak, only the weak. She lives to serve, does not know how to do much else. Some have remarked that it is almost as though she is not a person at all, merely a shell, doing only what she has been taught to do. We are the hollow men, we are the stuffed men...
She is soldier bred of hardened eyes, long since dried up tears. Of harsh touches and aching bruises. She revels in the constriction of her chest with each aching breath after hours of training. The pain keeps her mind clear. Somehow, she retains a spark of humanity within her. Feels sorry for the poor sod caught deserting the army. He was only a boy, but he was meant to be a soldier. He was weak. She felt pity, nothing more. She did her duty, but took no pleasure in his execution, could not stand the wicked grin on her commander's face. There was honor, and there was cruelty. He disgusted her.
Our dried voices whenwe whisper together are quietand meaningless...
She does not weep, cannot weep. Knows no capacity for tears. She has no time in her life to feel the plight of others. She knows in her heart what is right and what is not, but lifts no finger to move against the wrong if it means contradicting an order. They are right, the men who whisper. She is not a human, not a girl weeping in the shadows, not anymore. She is a shell, bred and made only to do as she is told, follow her orders, ask no questions.

īŧ¨īŊīŊīŊīŊīŊīŊ
She used to pray, she can remember this much. At night, sometimes, when she closes her eyes, she can still see a hazy memory of frail hands, pale and grimy, entwining their fingers together, clenching so tightly the bony knuckles went stark white as her entire arms trembled. Quiet whispers fill her ears, "Please, oh please, save me from this place..." But she awakens before she can hear much else. She does not even recall the place in question. It's a dark place in her mind, a fuzzy image of black shadows crawling along walls and skittering sounds in the night. She only knows that she is no longer there, chastises herself for being afraid of it, of even thinking of it.
Shape without form, shade without colour...
Her earliest clear memory is of the training camps. She recalls joy at her overseers words of praise. She is a prodigy, they say, masterful... It is not until later that she realizes she should never have felt happiness at what was only meant to be a hell. It is not good to be a prodigy, she learns, and not easily. She is transferred from her camp, the one she has grown to call home. After all, she is young, one of the youngest there, only in the camp at all because a commander took pity on a poor orphan girl. She was never even able to muster up the courage to call him father.
Paralysed force, gesture without motion...
In her new location, she is taught more than she ever thought she could learn. Years pass, and still she is learning. She grows stronger with each passing day, loses her humanity a little more with each passing day. When the only thing that exists in one's world is harsh battles, aching bruises, and the clanging of swords, it is not difficult to see how she lost any hope she had of learning kindness. She only wishes she had the chance.
Remember usâif at allânot as lost violent souls...
After years learning, she is finally instated into the ranks. She is young, younger than most of the soldiers there, but there is no question that she belongs. She spends time there, even grows accustomed to it, but history has a way of repeating itself. Again, she is called away. This time, to serve as the heir's protector. She's unclear why, or of her exact duties, but she will follow them regardless. It is all she knows how to do.
But only as the hollow men, the stuffed men...
