Physical Description
32 years old, 5'11" tall, 186 lbs. White-tanned skin with copper hair and hazel eyes. Wears leather armour. Has shifting tattoo on chest (wolf/eagle/serpent) connected to warg ability.
Background
Lady of Sylobelle (elevated Session 26). Ranger hunter with homebrewed warg ability allowing her to warg into creatures within 30ft. Carries the dark secret that Crown Princess Eilrora Everglade ordered the High King's assassination - only Eldrin Oakenhart and the Princess know of her involvement.
City Hero: Most famous person in Belendar after delivering killing blow to Ser Balthazar Thornwood the wyvern during siege.
Military Rank: General of the North (Session 26 - overall command of northern campaign)
Political Position: Royal Advisor (left of throne, Session 26)
Warg Ability Origin (Session 30): During shared dream vision trapped in Dream Temple, crushed under falling debris when Khorrak crashed through wall. While unconscious throughout battle with Khorrak, the Minotaur's green ooze (after party killed it) seeped under rock and covered her body. When party lifted debris, body "whisped away in kind of green smoke" undergoing transformation that granted Warg ability. Annie absent due to illness during this pivotal character development.
