BackgroundTempest is a Tide Witch born from a long line of Tide Witches.Tide Witches summon fair winds and swift currents for the ships at sea. Some have been known to also call down fierce storms on their enemies.She was given a quest of sorts from her clan elders, following a long spell of misfortune. The winds and waters were growing more unpredictable and dangerous. Strange creatures were swarming ships and pulling men to their deaths. Strange sightings of men dressed in black robes, and of disappearances in the night. A whole isle disappearing from existence . . . . Answers were needed; solutions found. The elders swore that the omens said that it should be Tempest that ventured forth to be finding them.Weapons:She is particularly known for carrying bones upon her person, which combined with a corrupted form of white magic, she uses as a potent weapon.It is whispered that she is also able to create golems from the bones she carries which often resemble spiders of various sizes.Aether: Particular affinity for wind, water, and healing magics; whether or not she choses to use these to heal rather than wound is a completely separate issue.Rumors- There is something very off about her aether.
- She is willing to take jobs that interest or amuse her. She doesn't seem to have many qualms as to whether they are strictly legal or not.Quirks: Been known to walk around as a smaller construct version of herself: Windy Indy D Great and Powerful! Bard extraordinaire! Chaos incarnate!
