Race/Faction: Human/Kingdom

Age: 28

Description:


Eva is tall, but slouches most of the time, due to her injury. She has long red hair and captivating blue eyes. One of her legs was badly broken when she was younger and never fully healed. The injury still causes her pain, makes her limp and forces her to use a cane when walking.
Eva can make herself very pretty when she wants to, which isn’t very often, mostly when attending official events in the castle. Most of the time however, she wears simple clothes and a cape, all of darker colors that help hide blood stains.



Personality: All the pain and suffering she has to endure each day forged Eva into a tough woman. She is ruthless and unforgiving, always focused on her goal, which is identifying and capturing out all the criminals and rebels who would pose a threat to the king or the stability of the kingdom. Eva realizes it is a never ending quest, but each solved case, signed confession or a public execution brings her satisfaction and joy.
She doesn’t really have any personal life, friends, not even talking about lovers. Her cold behavior drives people away from her, and if that is not enough, her title and job do the trick. She doesn’t long for company, as loving someone or having a family poses an unnecessary weakness someone can use (she would know, she uses it very often to make the suspects cooperate).

Class: Inquisitor

Motivation: Eva is all about obeying the law, under any circumstances. She truly believes that the royal family are the rightful rules of the country and is willing to do anything to preserve the status quo.

History:
Eva was born into a lower nobility family owning some lands need Yeruse. She was raised as a noble girl, preparing to marry some wealthy and important man when she comes of age. At the age of 16, she was engaged with an important baron, a dream match for a girl of her pedigree. But all took a downturn one day when she took her horse for a ride around the city.

Accompanied by two guards, she didn’t expect any trouble. In a nearby forest she got attacked by a bunch of thugs, her guards killed. Eva tried to ride away, but one of the attackers shot her horse, and while falling, one of her legs got stuck under it, bones broken and crushed. Her screams attracted attention of passing city guards, who rescued her.

The attackers were all rounded up and after confessing to their crimes, they were publicly executed. Even though they were just hungry peasants, who were trying to survive, Eva took great satisfaction in watching them suffer. Her leg never healed, she cannot fully bend or straighten the knee completely, or put her full weight on it, forcing her to use a cane when walking.

Her engagement was cancelled, and no new suitors were in sight. Eva’s parents were devastated, but she didn’t really care much. She became obsessed with the law, studying it day and night and then applying for a position in the inquisition.

While she wouldn’t be the first woman ever to become an inquisitor, still it was very unusual, and Eva had to work hard to prove herself. Tirelessly working on every case she was given it soon became apparent, that not only she is capable of forcing confessions out of suspects, but also in determining the truth. She found a surprising satisfaction in finally being recognized for her skills instead just for her looks and family name.

Strengths: Loyalty, obedience, great judge of character, great deduction skills, very little compassion for other people, which makes her an excellent investigator.

Weakness: She has no close friends and she is feared and hated by the common people. She is distrustful about everyone. She is weak physically, her injury causes her pain when moving, some days she even needs to rely on her servants to help her out of bed before the stiff muscles loosen up a bit.

What is your character's greatest flaw?
Enforcing the law under any circumstances, no matter how crazy the law might be.
