Character: Amber Blackwolf

To say I have a personal attachment to this particular character is an understatement. Of all the characters on this world, this is my first character I created and a character with a lot of me in her. She is very insecure and sensitive about what the world thinks about her. When I was in college, that was me to the letter. Though she doesn't show up as anything more then reference in my High King Sword novels, she is still there for me to cherish.

Born to the Warrior Leader Dyani Blackwolf and the Master Mage Ukiah she was a elven half breed that was trained to be a Wolf Warrior, but was despised by both worlds. She was strong willed and honor bound, sticking to the Aniwaya (code of honor of the Wolf Warriors) even when the Clan itself had given up on it. Living through the loss of her friend, Jared Swiftarrow, and her father the War of the Gods changed her. She married Richard Goldenstein, becoming the mother of six children and helped Richard rule over his House. When Richard died centuries before herself she took to traveling to different Clans, hoping to bring them back to their great status and left the the ruling of the House to one of her many grandchildren.

Amber was a half-elf, five hundred and twenty winters at the time of her death. She was five foot tall, 90 pounds wet with a lithe, athletic figure. Her face was angled and well defined, her skin a creamy pale, with a hint of tan to it. Her forest green eyes were big and oval. Her hair, almost bright red, was curly and hung to her waist. Her bangs hung over a gold circlet, with feathers hanging off the back of the circlet.

Amber wore a one armed shirt, that left her right arm bare as well as her stomach. Hunting leathers for pants which laced up at the side, with boots which laced up in the front and come to mid-calf. Quiver and short sword at her hip. She carried a hunting knife in her boot and a short cloak and bow on her back.

Amber spoke her mind when she is asked to socialize, otherwise she kept to herself. She didn't normally lie, but did so to protect someone who was harmed or weaker then herself. She was quiet, but quick to anger. She was nervous in crowds but hung on deeply to her few friends.

Amber had issues with Knights before she met Eric and Richard and she always hated the Black Wizards. She helped those in need, kept her word and upheld her honor.

Amber is used as an example of a great hero through my High King's Sword novels, though she would laugh at the title. Nothing more then background, it might be interesting if your players are in the time near the Chosen to come into contact with her.
