She wears a suit of finely-wrought plate armor, and her long, dark hair is often braided and pulled back to keep it from her face. Her eyes are sharp and calculating, reflecting the cold ambition that drives her. | voice_mannerisms = Her voice is a low, raspy growl, cold and commanding. She speaks in short, direct sentences with no wasted words, often punctuating her commands with a sharp nod or a pointed gesture. | bond = Her bond is to her own power and the survival of her fort. She sees her brigands as tools to be used, and nothing more. | ideal = Order in Chaos. In this unforgiving world, only strength and a firm hand can bring a semblance of control. Weakness is a flaw she cannot abide. | flaw = She underestimates those who appear weak or desperate, believing that ruthlessness is the only true measure of power. Her pride can be her downfall. | info = Kaelen carved out her own kingdom in the frozen wastes, building a fortress out of sheer will and brutality. She has made an uneasy pact with a sinister force—possibly the same power that summoned the Ice Devils—to protect her fort and expand her influence. She is a ruthless pragmatist, willing to deal with anyone as long as the price is right. | equipment = Plate armor, greatsword }
