* Jezebeth, Natural Follower of Bane *
Race : Aasimar
Alignment : Lawful Evil
Height : 5' 91"
Age : 37
Weight : 154 lbs, medium frame, without her heavy armor
Deity : It's complicated until it's obvious (Bane - Servant of the Fallen --> Iyachtu Xvim)
Class/profession : "Destroyer" / "Rhetorician"
Main weapons : Bastard sword & greatsword
General appearance :
Under normal circumstances she does not talk much, yet she will when she thinks it matters, and not uncommon, in her own habitual, laconical way. In combat she behaves with immense bravery, using the force of her voice and personality to challenge foes and 'weed out the weak' in a firsthand way as if to set an example. Both her speech and actions may imbue her opponents with fear, making it easier for her to cut them down, and to show others how weak they really are.
She is not stupid however, and when a fight seems to have become pointless, or when her injuries hinder her combat skill, she'll try and become an inspiring figure on the battlefield, calling others to her (and Bane's) aid in an final attempt to turn the tide. She displays tactical skills and strategic knowledge gained from books and treaties of Red Knight herself. She doesn't display much signs of luxury as luxury is a part of the 'plague', evidence one is vulnerable for 'vulgarity'. Yet her armor and gear is of decent quality, and at the start of any event found spotless.
Though she'll never admit it, Jezebeth is a beauty, with hair flowing down her shoulders and back like black ink. Her eyes appear dark as well, yet they are not without life or soul, and they seem to flare up with a black flame when touched by light. Not much is known about Jezebeth's background, nor the true reasons why she has become such a devoted follower of the Black Lord. Sometimes she will display an expression of disapproval, contempt, or dissatisfaction that seems to derive from deeper levels, but why is unknown even to most of her brothers and sisters in arms.

Quick background :
Jezebeth wouldn't share her background with anyone like that, but she was honed and forged into a weapon in the north. She never has known a loving family or childhood love, and she was an orphan. As from a young age she was confronted with the seriousness of the traditions of the barbarian clan raising her, and from day one she had to be strong. During one of their many expeditions, Jez got seperated from the others and was found by a sinister group of warriors who taught her the way of Bane. Something happened to her in that period of her life that made her become very devouted to Bane's teachings. Blessed with excellent genetics and being a quick learner, Jezebeth 'served' rather well and received a considerable education of the mind and body. Some other peers weren't as fortunate as Jez, and many of those got killed during missions, or were left behind to die. Only the strong and strong-willed were supported, and she did her best to pursue that policy and tradition herself. She always has placed a lot of hardship ahead of herself.
Rp hooks (for the time being) :
-Clean up the world, weed out the weak, exterminate those who have sold their morals and forsaken the noble art of war and spartan values. Those 'distracted' by greed and vanity, by peace and light, should in her opinion be sacrificed to the Dark One, the only God who according to her is capable of helping the world dispose of the weakness gnawing at its roots. From the ashes should rise up the strong walls of a new kingdom, inhabited by strong, athletic bodies with strong souls, honed by the faith, and completely devoid of any shortcomings.
-She endeavours to outstrip all other 'candidates' striving for a position as Chosen of Bane. She hopes to join the Black Lord at his side one day on his sinister plane of existence.
-In a more measured way : detect any other (ex) Banites in the Gate's region. Refine her militaristic discipline and finish her training in a true spartan fashion. Become an example for other warriors, and lead/train one day fellow Banites and likeminded people.
-She was a while with the Ebon Blade. After Cyrisist's took over the Ebon keep and upon her return, she may have shaken up things a little.
-She respects the teachings of Red Knight, considering the knowledge as a military asset.
-After the Dead Three disappeared (1358), it took Jezebeth some time to 'recover'. It's not certain if she picked sides or was chosen, but her current deity appears to be shifting to what she may claim as the only 'legit successor' to the former Black Hand.
