Character Sheet for Rachel Santiago
Character Description
Rachel Santiago, daughter of William Santiago, one of the elite paladin's of the Tholusian military, is a highly skilled and capable sorceress with immense power.
She accompanies Jathan on his classified mission to fulfill the role of battle-mediator using her diplomatic skills to put an end to needless bloodshed, but more often than not, annihilates her foes with supreme prejudice through the use of her elemental magic.
Although not on the front-lines of an assault or battle, Rachel's power is key to winning most any conflict, and the melee combatants key priority is to protect her so that she may devastate the opponents and provide protective barriers around her ally's.
Personality
Being an elemental mage, Rachel has a natural affinity towards nature, and hence her wardrobe reflect this, choosing to wear free-moving clothing, albeit revealing in appearance. Because of the enormous power she can wield and use at her disposal, Rachel must replenish her focus through meditation, which often means she must completely undress to fully absorb the spirit-energy of the world.
Rachel's preferred clothing are dresses that she can quickly don and remove should the need arise.
Similar to Jathan, Rachel understands the complexity of the world and its corruption by selfishness but must stay true to her duty and role in the military.
Overly affectionate, often to a fault, Rachel is kind in nature, but brash with first appearances.
Likes/Dislikes
Dislikes: Restrictive clothing.
Background/History
When I first created Rachel she was very much the "stereotypical female anime love interest" Her name was Sakura Amaryllis or something cliche. I reworked her a lot but I feel she still retains much of the anime-girl trope from the past which works for the story. She has a specific role to play to advance the story and character developments.
---
Raised by her father, William Santiago, the former-apprentice of Adam Lancet, Jathan's father, Rachel was born with a powerful magical ability passed on through her mother who was also an elemental sorceress. Rachel's mother was a well-known and powerful sorceress but met her demise in a previous conflict with Juuganian radicals. Rachel is a childhood friend of Jathan Lancet and Cynthor Muunas with William being somewhat of a mentor and friend of the Lancet family.
Rachel, along with her father, live in North Point, the furthest expanse of Tholus, a territory on the main-continent.
Relatives/Family
Father: William Santiago
Mother: Rāḥēl Amaryllis [Deceased]
Body
Clothing
Her favorite dress, or loose-fitting and flowing sorceress robes designed to help channel the elemental energy of the world.
She typically does not wear undergarments to help her quickly disrobe to better focus her power. Wearing clothing, although necessary for geographic and social reasons, restricts an elemental sorceress from connecting with the world and ultimately limits their power that they can use, in Rachel's case, for combat purposes.
Rachel generally disrobes at least once a day to meditate and gather elemental energy and so chooses clothing that can best facilitate this function, although she will wear regular clothing if it is absolutely mandatory.
Accessories
Tholusian Dual-Phase Rapier: Designed for light combat and ideal for parrying.
Basic Trackers Knife: Being part of Jathan's crew, the trackers knife is a standard weapon and tool carried by all trackers to be used in the field.
