Identity and portrayal

Appearance

A younger Blessed novice; current prose locks energy and relative youth more clearly than physical details. New identity art should wait for age, hair, complexion, build and robe decisions.

Fast, humorous and defiant, often using jokes to outrun fear; moral instincts are sharp beneath the speed.

Skills, Essan and limitations

Warding, brief protective shielding, novice healing and sharp observation.

Knowledge limits

Knows enough of the records and meetings to expose the Quiet Tithe.

Source status

Current working character Bible; full spoilers; author review required.
