Isondre Shadowhaven

(Not finished)

Appearance and Demeanor Public knowledge Refugees who claim to hail from a distant Duskwight enclave known as 'Shadowhaven,' Isondre and her brother Isandor have arrived in Eorzea to make an impact, for good or ill. Despite their tendency to be outspoken in their disdain for city life -- and many of the cities' occupants -- they have garnered something of a reputation as mercenaries. Isondre is skilled with a bow, and takes pride in her most prized possession, a black batskin quiver embossed with a peregrine. In combat, she is tenacious, agile, and fiercely protective of her brother, often seeming to prioritize his safety over her own. More than one foe, thinking to be clever by attacking the skilled lanceman from the rear, has suddenly sprouted an arrow from the eye. Deeper truths Is there more to this story?
