Personality / Quirks
Hinda Velora is the first of the new Marshalls to be elevated to the position. Her claim to fame is the Rhakros siege, where she not only quite successfully guided her troops through the obstacles and ambushes set up by Lisirra and her loyal Rhakrosians, but also leading the charge of Lisirra, the Queen of Pestilence herself, after infiltrating the Immortal's Domain. As a result, she has been lauded the 'hero of Rhakros' by the Etzori masses, being righteously honored and revered for her resourcefulness and courage in the face of unholy terror.

Holding the rank of Braxton before the Rhakros siege, Hinda Velora had already made a name for herself with her leadership and accumen for strategy, tactics and her sharp, observant eye. She rose quickly through the ranks during the raid on Rhakros as her superior commanders fell and competent leadership was required. She attained the rank of Marshall there, though she was only formally inaugurated on the 10th of Saun 719 upon her triumphant return.

Marshall Velora is stoic and level-headed, able to analyse situations quickly and take countermeasures where needed. She cares little for glory and fame, instead prioritizing the survival of her troops. She is the type of commander to listen to the ideas and suggestions of her subordinates, and values the quality of those more than its source --even if it would prove superior than an idea or plan of her own. That said, Hinda is a no-nonsense hardass leader who takes no lip from anyone, especially those under her command.

In battle, she leads by example, leading from the front lines rather than hang back. While inspiring for her troops, it has given birth to rumors of her having a death wish. They might not be wrong. Between the Aukari raids of 718 where she lost her husband and her two children, Lisirra's lethal plagues and the subsequent retalliatory siege on Rhakros, Hinda Velora has lost all her family, her close friends, and trusted comrades in arms. She has very little left but her undying loyalty to Etzos and a burning desire to serve it to the best of her ability.

As the rank of Marshall is denoted by the color red, she has taken to wearing a red cape and red leather gloves when fulfilling her role as Marshall in any formal or ceremonial capacity. When engaging in combat, she ditches the cloak in favor of a trusty spear adorned with a crimson tassel.

Hey Oberan, this is a bit beyond the scope of a temporary flavor npc, and as such I'm going to move it on over to the CTW forum for it to get a proper look at (including the threads where she appears.). I do know that Maltruism had this npc in the works so I don't forsee any troubles with her approval. Just when doing more major npcs, I'd ask that you send their information and dev them in the CTW forum. Thanks!

Heya, as this is a major NPC in Etzos (as I understand it) and not a temporary or flavor npc, I'm moving this over to the CTW forum. I'm going to have a look at the threads where she appeared, to make sure everything is on the up and up. Her skills may need to be tweaked (increased to suit such a influential npc) but other than that I don't forsee any big obstacles to her approval.

Thanks for your patience.

I'll move this over to the appropriate forum entry when I can. Thanks.
Approved!
