Appearance:

Riswynn is a round dwarf woman wearing worn but well cared for armor over sensible traveling clothes. Her red hair is pulled back away from her pale face, which is chiefly marked by her sharp brow and sunken eyes. She carries herself with an air of confident expertise - a professional.

Background:

Riswynn used to be a proud soldier of Dwarven clan Dankil. In different times she may have been a scholar, but her magical studies became one more tool of war. She served as the arcane support in a company of her literal family, pitting her teamwork and magical might against enemy armies that sought to conquer her mountain home. That all changed when Orsik took command.
Under the recently promoted Orsik, Riswynn’s careful battle plans were subject to this new officer's inane lust for glory over sound strategy. Riswynn did her best to follow orders, but when Orsik’s commands proved to lead into a suicidal ambush, Riswynn disobeyed his commands and managed to keep herself and her sister Helja alive. The rest of the company perished. Despite her heroic actions, Riswynn's disobedience was punished. Her clan name was stripped away and clan Dankil exiled her. She wandered for a while, surviving on odd jobs, until the ongoing war sucked her back in. She now offers her services as a mercenary, taking posts that suit her and don't insist on too many restrictions.
