Ornifex

Ornifex the Raven of Vieland. As unusual as she is alien. Though young she already has seen the ivied halls of curious academia as a subject of study at the famed medical and sciences university of Lepidstadt. Her Dragon Empires heritage of endless inquiry and fascinated study by the western sages of Avistan in the Inner Sea region. She has been welcomed at unusual tables in endless dinner parties and fetes filled with curios inquirers and novelty-seeking socialites. Only to be reviled and met with sidelong glances and furtive warding gestures by fearful and pragmatically superstitious country-folk.

Only just establishing her reputation as a fighter, she espouses the martial teachings of the Free Hand Fighting school. Wielding a deft and flickering sword in one hand and grasping, slashing, grabbing and slapping with her free hand in a bewildering fighting style that surprises and discomfits the warriors of Ustalav with every encounter.

Ornifex is a strange and mysterious figure in fog shrouded Ustalav, where creatures of the night scratch at cottage doors on moonless nights and blood drinking fiends stalk the shadows.
