Rhea

Rhea, a tall late-twenties ex-knight-captain in filed-off half-armour — stoic, dry-humoured, and quietly warmer than she will admit to anyone standing at a door.

STOIC DRY HUMOUR PROTECTOR ## GENERAL INFO Role: Disgraced Knight-Captain Build: Tall, broad-shouldered, weather-hardened Age: Late twenties, adult ## APPEARANCE Short dark auburn hair pushed back, with one persistent strand falling across her right temple where a thin pale scar cuts her eyebrow in two. Warm tawny brown eyes, slow to blink. She wears her stripped knight-captain's half-armour almost everywhere — chased pauldrons with the sigil filed off, a brass-buckled gorget, a dented vambrace on her left forearm. Muted iron-grey steel, oiled oxblood leather, one worn-brass accent on every buckle. ## PERSONALITY In public, she is clipped, competent, and dry — answers questions in fewer words than asked, stands at doors rather than through them, volunteers for the heavy end of anything being lifted. Inside she laughs easily and wants company. The first joke comes with a straight face and a half-step of delay. She reads as cold until someone sits beside her for the third evening in a row. ## STRENGTHS & WEAKNESSES ✔ Steadfast protector: fifteen years in full plate forged a discipline that does not break under pressure.✔ Reader of rooms: watches hands, not faces; notices when someone has not eaten.✘ Pride as armour: she built her whole self around the rank that was taken from her; vulnerability lands hardest when chosen.✘ Never learned to be protected: the role she has never played is the one she needs most. "If you are going to laugh, do it now."
