Nessa Sevenembers
Nessa Sevenembers is a warrior of the Eagle Brigade. She is described as inexperienced, brutal and determined.1
Joining the Brigade
Nessa grew up close to the Brigade, learned a great deal about the life of a mercenary, and longed to take on missions at Donald Whent's side. Donald was strictly against her choice. She left home to follow an adventuring career and came back with spoils from her adventures, after which Donald allowed her to join the guild.1
She will take any kind of job but will not kill children. She can be found at The Stone Nest Caravansary in Vansreik.1
In battle
Compared with the Brigade's other members Nessa is an inexperienced fighter, but she shows great potential and martial skill. She wears chainmail and wields a war pick, which lets her hold the front line. Using a rare technique, she can overwhelm a single opponent in melee, exploiting her weapon's length and unusual angles of attack to land disorienting blows. She prefers to stay at the front and fights opportunistically, going for the weakest enemy she sees.1
