Blood of the Crown

I'd happily join a discord, but I will warn you -- the OOC will not have as much activity if you make one. So do consider that. @Lyla

Blood of the Crown

Leia

Leilani Suldevi

_{art by fly}

Nickname/Titles: Leia

Rank/Profession: Knight Commander; Sorceress

Age: 37

Gender: female

Appearance: Leia has sharp features and thin lips. Her skin is pale, like she doesn't get enough sun -- although this is far from the truth. She has an athletic build from her years of training. She tends toward modest and hard-wearing clothing, when she's out of her armor, favoring blues, grays, browns, and black. She does like an excuse to dress up a little, but rarely wears actual dresses, preferring clothing that can be fought in if necessary. She is at home in her standard armor, which is a combination of leather and plate, easy to move in with practice but still providing protection to the important areas. She carries her sword nearly everywhere, a longsword with a blue-green stone in the crossguard and a tooled leather sheath.

Personality Details

Leia is a determined and hard-working woman. She strives for excellence in whatever she does. She is competitive, and is constantly measuring herself against the bar set by her parents' achievements. She's friendly enough, but tends to be blunt in her words, which can be off-putting to others. With friends she relaxes a little, letting her guard down. She is immensely loyal to those who have her trust, and does what she can to support them. She has a strong moral compass, but she is also pragmatic, willing to do the dirty work when she believes it is required. She is level-headed, keeping her cool even in stressful situations. Failure and helplessness scare her, but her greatest fear is being forced somehow to harm those she cares about.

Background:

Backstory

Leia is originally from a town east and a little north of the capital. Her mother Raia is a renowned sorceress and expert on the lost ruins, her father James a knight commander that served the crown. Leia discovered her magic powers at a very young age, and immediately her mother started training her. Leia is not her mother's equal in talent, but through extensive study she's learned a great deal. When she was seven, she and her mother relocated to the capital of Olenta, so that young Leia could start on her goal of becoming a knight commander. Under her father, she studied swordplay, as well as tactics, strategy, and logistics. Here also she had to devote herself to training, which she did with a will. After a few years under her father, she became squire to a knight commander named Agimund, who also had some wizardry background. At fifteen she took the test to become a knight, and passed with flying colors. Such was her skill that at sixteen she was granted a rune by the previous king.

When the king died less than a year later, Leia was devastated. She'd meant to pledge her life to the rightful king, and now there was none! Still, she continued her training in the hopes that one day the rightful heir would be found and take the throne. She devoted herself to her trade, so much so that she never really had time for a significant other. She's had a few flings, but that's pretty much it. Even after achieving her goal of knight commander at twenty-four, she's never really looked for love.

Leia was thirty when there came an attack on the Lord Steward Geraint. She was there for the attack, and even defeated one of the conspirator knight commanders. She was the first to suggest Kalowick become a knight commander himself, recognizing his loyalty and prowess in battle.

Rune Affinity: force
Leia is able to move herself and others, as well as objects, with bursts of force. She uses this to fling herself forward, and to drag enemies towards her. Finer applications include jumping farther, slowing her landing on a long fall, and deflecting arrows or other blows. She can create shields and barriers if she is concentrating.

Skills & Abilities:
Leia knows how to use most martial weapons, but she is most skilled with longsword.
Leia is ambidextrous, able to fight equally well with her right hand or her left. This allows her to sketch magic spells with one hand while using her other hand to wield her sword.
She is a sorceress, and has a signature spell that drains the target's energy to replenish her own. She knows a great number of standard wizard spells, and has designed a few of her own to buff herself and damage her enemies.
She has a good grasp on tactics, strategy, and logistics.
She knows basic first aid.
She knows how to survive in the field. From building fires to hunting and foraging, she's learned how to get by on her own.

Additional Details:
Leia has a lovely contralto singing voice, though it's not easy to persuade her to sing.

Relationships:
Kalowick: Leia was the first to suggest he become a knight commander in the wake of his mentor's betrayal, recognizing his loyalty and skill.
Astloveran Hjoren Kilstaf: Leia's mother was his student, and introduced the two when Leia was just a child. She's grown up knowing him.

@Lyla No worries! I know you're making a lot of lore, and it can get mixed up sometimes. <3

Blood of the Crown

@Lyla you have the Lord Steward Geraint speaking to the folks in the great hall in your very first post. That's where I got the name from! ^.^;;

Blood of the Crown

I should mention, if anyone wants a relationship -- a platonic relationship! -- with Leia, I'm open to discussion and ideas.

Blood of the Crown

@BurningCold Yee~ I'll add the attack to her sheet, then. That was what, seven years ago?

Blood of the Crown

@BurningCold Ohh, maybe Leia was one of the knight commanders protecting the steward the day of Varn's attack? That might be cool!
