Basic Information
Name: Raesa Wintersword
Raesa is the name she was born with, but her second name is one she took for herself, after being dubbed it by a man in her youth.
Age: Appears to be something around 19-21
Overall Appearance:
Raesa is five feet, eight inches tall and weighs about one-hundred and fourty pounds. Any extra weight seems to be attributed to muscle, as body fat is scarce on her lithe, wiry frame.
She has stark silver-white hair, and icy blue eyes, and a drawn look about her face, unforgiving if not unkind. She has a pale skin tone, and her limbs are long and slender, clothed with metal.
Her armour is silver, scuffed and scraped in some places, but seemingly in good condition all the same, as not a hint of rust was seen, and the armour well polished.
Her hair is braided across her head, keeping half of it back from her face as the other sweeps across it, covering a bandaged eye. Despite the fact it should be a hindrance, her sight seems perfect, or so slightly different that it is unnoticable.
On her back is strapped a longsword, in a black leather sheath.
Magic:
Raesa is skilled in two types of magic. She has a certain level of mastery over Spiritism, and has learnt how to warp space around her, to a certain extent.
Her mastery of Spiritism is very focused, as she had trained herself in one aspect much harder than any other. She is extremely skilled in mastering possession, though has yet to create a strong Soulmist. However, she can communicate with the spirits of the dead, and see them, though it turns her eyes white whilst she is doing so, usually.
Raesa has actually managed to master possession to such an extent as she has a certain strong spirit who follows her, and takes possession at her will. They have a deal between them, though Raesa does not speak of it in detail.
When she is possessed, she harnesses the spirit to enhance her won abilities, giving her strength exceeding her frame, and speed past normal endurance limits. Again, when she is possessed, her eyes turn silver-white, glowing with etheral light.

Raesa is able to warp space around her, in a manner similar to teleportation. However, she rarely uses this, unless in a manner to get to places.
Warping space normally give out a blast of cool air, in her case, even on a midsummer day. She also has to uncover her bandaged eye to do so, though why is not known.

Weapons:
Her longsword, strapped to her back, is inscribed with glowing blue runes, and seems to be the result of Magecraft. However, she did not forge the blade herself. She calls it Ice, and treasures it greatly. She wields it in both one hand and two, one hand for variety of choices, and two for strength.
She also has a smooth wooden bow, which she keeps oiled, but it is little used, along with silver throwing knives.
Personality:
Raesa is stoic at first, not one to show her emotions and trust to strangers. She is more open when battling alongside someone, but it takes a while to gain enough trust for her to say anything meaningful to her in particular. However, the transition from an acquaintance to someone she can almost count as a friend is not always obvious, and she is not one to declare her friendships outright. At times, she can come out as downright rude, though she means to less than she is.
Alignment:
Raesa has no duties nor alliegance to any but herself until such person has proved him or herself. She bends no knee to any prince nor lord, nor even King, past courtesies.
