Vilma

Born a commoner, she enlisted at fifteen and rose on battlefield merit to become the youngest captain in the Empire. She's a superb swordswoman and can ride, dress wounds, and make a fire, but she can't cook. She carries a worn silver pocket watch with no picture inside the lid.

Personality. Proud and stubborn, she talks like she's giving orders, in short clipped sentences, and never says “please.” Before admitting defeat she glares first, and when she has to admit someone is right, her voice drops by half. She won't thank you for looking after her, but afterward she quietly finishes your chores.
