Name: High Priestess Morgana Thornveil
Age: 30
Race: Human
Fighting Class: Fighter/Cleric
Gear: Morgana is heavily armoured underneath the religious garb of her order. Dark robes tattered at the ends are tied together with a belt and a hood reaches up and covers the back of her head. A silver mask hides her visage with only her eyes being visible. On her head a silver crown of thorns secures her hood to her head. Her armour is old, but kept in good condition. It has etchings all over of various symbols from her order and while clean, still has some staining of blood from the numerous battles she has had over the years.
Weapons: Her sword "Oathkeeper" is made from black steel and is considered a masterpiece by her orders smiths. The blade is long and straight, forged from high-quality steel and polished to a sinister gleam. It tapers to a finely pointed tip, perfect for piercing through the defenses of her enemies with deadly precision. The blade's double edges are razor-sharp, reflecting the meticulous care and craftsmanship that went into its creation. Along the length of the blade are similar etchings that are found on her armour.
She also carries a large kite shield made of the same steel as her sword. It features numerous etchings along it from her religious order and features a small spike jutting out forward near the bottom half of the shield.
Appearance: Morgana stands at 5 foot 10 and rarely shows her face, not due to any religious oath, but due to her scarring. Scars crisscross her face, each one a testament to the countless battles she has fought and survived. A deep, jagged scar runs diagonally from her left temple to her right jawline, the result of a near-fatal blow she received in a previous battle. Her skin is pale, almost ghostly, a stark contrast to the dark and elaborate armor she wears. Her hair is a dark black and despite her scars one could see that before her life as High Priestess she was once perhaps a striking beauty, with high cheekbones and a strong jawline.
Her eyes are perhaps her most striking feature, especially being that they are the only things most people see of her other than her armour. They are a piercing shade of icy blue, with harsh lines and bags under her eyes that suggest many days of sleepless nights.
Backstory: Lady Morgana Thornveil was once a noblewoman in a distant, war-torn kingdom. Born into a family of devout crusaders, she was trained from a young age in the arts of combat and religious doctrines. Her family served a fanatical religious sect known as the Order of the Darkened Light, which believed that only through constant struggle and suffering in the efforts to protect the weak and impaired could the soul be purified.
At a young age, Morgana experienced a vision during a fierce battle, where a spectral figure revealed to her methods during the battle which would result in a major victory. Of course, these tactics led to exactly what the figure had told her, and due to being classified as a 'Seer' by the Order she was quickly fast tracked to being a High Priestess of war.
Over the years she gained a reputation as a ruthless and great tactician, as well as a nightmare on the battlefield. Her mercy and kindness have also been remarked upon by the few with the courage to speak about it, which has led to her being something of a controversial figure in her home kingdom.
A recent vision gave her a call to arms to leave her home and go travelling, just as she did on her pilgrimage many years ago. This call has led her back to the only place she could think of travelling to, an old friend named Aryal and her adventurers haven.
Hope this is ok! I've not RP'd in a few years!!
