Basic Info

A castrum nuisance and sticky-fingered snoop that picks from the piles of abandoned (or unattended, popoto popoto) machina when Imperial backs are turned. Purveyor of anything a Garlean war machine may have within its chassis.

Combat & Battle

First off, Niamh is a completely unreliable ally in battle and will flee at the first sign of serious heat. Not only that, but if the battle is over something, such as some prized, coveted object, you can bet your booty she’ll be trying to take it with her - and not because she doesn’t want it to fall into the “wrong hands.” Hers are definitely the wrong hands. She is first and foremost an opportunist, and a very indebted opportunist. Even the most pleasant of company is unlikely to overcome this fatal flaw. Secondly, those that rival her with a shortbow are few and far, as nearly every waking moment of her life she’s had her hand on one. She’s practiced with a longbow, but the denseness of trees where she grew up meant the farthest you could be from your target while still maintaining line of sight would be under 50 yards, so it didn’t make sense to lug around the unnecessary poundage. If convinced/incentivized to join the fray, she’s a cool, collected, confident sniper that will give you the willies just by looking at her. She owns the moments with a predatory glean to her eyes, and knows her shots will always hit their marks - she doesn’t rush through the execution, and if you tried to get her attention or talk to her while she’s shooting, she’d seem to be in a completely other world. She makes little in the way of sound, past some self-compliments, and will operate mostly on her own while managing to appear where needed; she’s a natural at anticipating the flow in a group environment and countering her opponent’s next moves - not unlike the adaptive, analytical nature of a pack-hunter who doggedly pursues their prey into their final moments. Without her bow she still retains her archers’ focus in a fight, but she’s likely to grow more and more frazzled as the fight wears on, leading to silly mistakes until her escape, or inevitable defeat.
