Age: 21
Alignment - Paladin
Affiliation - Covenant of Scholars
Personality - Alicia is a naive idealist, yet unfamiliar with the harsh reality of the world. Always with a cheerful smile on her face, and completely socially inept. Her childhood limited her social interactions, so she is not exactly sure what is offensive and what is not, and is easy to be offended herself. Due to her status, she always assumes she is in charge of her peers, though she respects the Paladin hierarchy and the chain of command. Her more courtly way of speaking makes for some issues when trying to talk with people of lesser birth, as they usually don't even understand or are annoyed by her mannerisms. And yet, when things get serious, Alicia changes completely - becoming solely focused on ending the fight.
Bio - Since birth, Alicia was taught and trained in a skill set that would allow her to join the paladins, and excel. Her father, though maintaining a guise of a loyal noble, did not forget what was taken away from him, and was plotting every single waking moment of his life. And Alicia were to follow his ideals, and be his eyes and ears from within. However, Deliah was still a loving father, and gave her everything he could, while trying not to spoil her... too much. Alicia's childhood consisted of luxury, lessons and training that very few children ever receive.
By the age of 13, she could almost go toe to toe with her combat instructors, if not for her natural strength disadvantage. Educated in etiquette, management, leadership and battlefield tactics, and imprinted with her father's ideals, Alicia was ready to join the Paladin training. Due to Deliah's connections, he knew very well of what the Paladin training is like, and the girl was prepared accordingly to deal with the strict discipline and indoctrination that will occur, without arousing suspicion.
Her days as an initiate were a mixed bag. She was raised to be a Paladin, and was completely prepared for anything thrown at her. Except socialization. Viewed as a "pampered daddy's girl who just wants to prove something" by some, a "Deliah's political move" by others, Alicia made very few friends. She did, however, prove that she is extremely capable combatant, probably the best one in her class. But even then, she had her personal maids in the barracks, doing all the chores and everything else for her, which raised more than a few eyebrows. Though anyone living in the same barracks did not mind that fact, at all. But in the end, Deliah's plan succeeded. Alicia became a paladin, passing everything with flying colors, and opportunities for her to join the Inquisitors arisen - just like he planned, while the girl still remained loyal to his cause.
Becoming one of the first members of Deliah's freshly created Covenant of Scholars, Alicia was granted official citizenship, and widely regarded a role model for other nobles. But after all this, Alicia was still with no true friends.
Power Description - Alicia supplements her aggressive fighting style by conjuring swords of light and manipulating them in various ways.
Spells:
- Sword of Light - Conjures a sword of light a bit above her shoulder, which can be fired on command. Up to 4 swords can be on standby. These require no extra gestures on Alicia's part, and are extremely deadly when released mid-attack. Swords create a small explosion of light on impact.
- Bladewall - Creates a small wall made from multiple Swords of Light pointing outwards. The blades can be released at will. Only one wall can exist at anyone time, and blades can only shoot forward.
- Shadow Eater - Detonates a Sword of Light, spreading tiny particles of light over a large area. Used to provide a minimal source of light, weaken or outright disable various magical cloud effects, and to weaken various supernatural senses. Multiple nearby detonations amplify the effect.
- Ring of Blades - Creates a dome-like formation of blades around the target.
Skills:
- Teathron Style - An exotic fighting style of forgotten origin. Utilizes two longswords of varying weight and length, this combat style leaves little room for opponents to retaliate, relying on evasion and parries for defense. To an outside observer, this combat style looks like a dance, a dance with two sharp swords swinging around.
- Tactician - Though lacking actual combat experience, Alicia is able to recognize and perform various tactical moves.
- Etiquette - While rather obnoxious to anyone trying to speak to her casually, it makes her invaluable when dealing with other nobles, allowing Alicia to mingle among them without drawing much attention.
- Wealthy - While not much of skill, money is never an issue for Alicia. Well, her father's money.
Equipment - Alicia is equipped with mastercraft light armor, decorated and fitted exactly for her, as well as the two swords. Compared to regular equipment most paladins are issued with, her gear is leagues above.
Other - Due to her lifestyle, Alicia is unable to take care of herself. On her own, she would quickly just starve to death, as everything was taken care off by her maids back home.
