​

Personality

​On the surface, Seyonne is approachable and friendly. She is kind to those who are truly down on their luck, but is highly skeptical of sob stories and drama.  She can also be vain, self-indulgent, reckless and impulsive.

​

Fighting Style

​Seyonne prefers to enter combat only as a last resort.  When left no other option, she will first try to ambush her adversary from a distance using her bow.  If cornered, she will fight dirty, strategically using her knees, elbows and daggers in an attempt to quickly incapacitate her opponent.

• "Some say she's a charlatan, but when she read my cards, she told me things that no one else could possibly know."
• "I've heard she plays the most haunting melodies on that lute of hers.  Pity she doesn't play more."

​

Moderate Rumors

Uncommon Rumors

• "I heard she was thrown out by her family.  No idea what for, but she's better off without those good-for-nothings anyway."
• "The lass sold some poor sod a potion for endurance and fortitude, if ya know what I mean. When he met up with ol' Luvinia at the Mizzenmast, let's just say that he couldn't hoist his main sail.  She's a swindler, that one."
