Backgrounds:

  • Artifact - 2 - "Edge" - Big Knife. Essentially a really heavy Moonsilver shortword with a Hearthstone socket. Uses modified Daiklaive stats with higher speed and accuracy but lower defense and damage.


  • Followers 2 - At some point she may have birthed some Creepy Fish Kids. Whether or not they're hers, they follow her around and currently act as members of the crew.
  • Heart's Blood 1 - Currently limited to her old Totem form (that of a smallish shark of some sort) and her new totem form (some kind of large luminescent fish).
  • Manse 1 - The Cavern of Shifting Shadows. Lunar-aspected Manse in a coral and limestone cavern in the side of the Isle of Mists, rather deeply beneath the ocean's surface. Produces a pretty-looking Gem of Shadows as found in The Book of 3 Circles.
  • Resources 1 - While she could have a larger share in the spoils taken by the crew, she doesn't really seem to need it. The things she DOES take are mostly due to the fact that they're shiny or pretty.

Possessions:

  • Clothing consists mostly of bits of gray-brown sharkskin, hunks of fish netting, and a few leather thongs. Maybe a metal ring or two. Also has a heavy rawhide belt and sheath for her Big Moonsilver Knife, Edge. She's never without the knife, trust me.
  • Has a small collection of gems, gold things, and odd trinkets stashed in her Manse, equaling about Resources 1.
