Serana Varran
Race: Human No one in Myrcathis wears the crimson higher than she does. The Wallwardens answer to her, the Crimson Blades answer to her, and every soldier between the wall and the throne knows her name before they know their own officer's. She is strict to the letter. Rules exist to be kept, and a rule bent once is a rule gone. She has no patience for excuses, no interest in circumstances, and no tolerance for anyone who thinks a title or a purse makes them an exception. And she enjoys the punishing. That is the part people remember. She does not pass sentence and walk away — she stays, she carries it out herself, and she takes her time about it. There is something close to pleasure in her face while she works, and she has never bothered to hide it. Serana Varran did not climb to the top of the Crimson Guard by accident, and she has no intention of climbing back down. |
