She says she is little more than a poet, a puppeteer, and an odd job girl, but she has extensive knowledge in alchemy (particularly poisons and other weaponry), wholesale murder/assassinations, torture, espionage, relic hunting, and grand larceny. On occasion, you can find her telling fortunes with a tarot deck she crafted herself (a look at her deck would reveal all the cards are labeled "DEATH" and feature various images of tragic accidents befalling stick figure people). As you might have guessed, she is not a particularly popular oracle, since she refuses to wax poetic about the health, wealth, love and happiness people want to hear.</font> |
