Amber Blight is a hot-tempered fire genasi, not to fit the stereotype but simply because she has no time for anyone's nonsense. After striking a deal with an otherworldly being, she became a Warlock. Her powers--elemental and magical--and her resourcefulness make her a very skillful bounty hunter. Her only interest is making money... and becoming a better fighter to better navigate the treacherous underbelly of society.

Physical Appearance

Amber is of regular build; just athletic enough to keep herself out of harm's way when she is in dangerous situations. She is not too tall, but her flaming hair that stands tall from her head makes her look intimidating and imposing. To add to her mysterious, menacing aura, her eyes are fully dark except for a spark that lights her irises. Her arms look like flowing streams of lava on either side of her body thanks to the effect of her sleeve tattoos. She is wearing a light armor, with a hooded coat to protect her identity when necessary.

Personality

Despite the warmth and light she exudes because of her racial traits, Amber is naturally cold and rough. Her personality, though, is a mystery even to her closest ally, Zev. Charming and charismatic when she needs to be, uninterested and dry when there is nothing for her to win, but mostly guarded and vigilant. She is aware of the dangers she faces as a bounty hunter and the fact that she may attract unwanted threats with her powers. Thus, she is always on the lookout for possible exits, making escape plans in case the situation gets out of control, and locating the most valuable loot to take with her. Although she is quite the adventurer, Amber is not one for challenges; her main goal is to make the most gold while taking the least possible risks. Her affinity to fire powers means she is also deeply intrigued by dragons. She has no stake in the bigger conflicts that are taking place with them, but she respects their strength and skills.

History

Amber's backstory is a mystery. She is cautious and refrains from sharing any personal information out of fear that anything in her past could be used against her. She met her ally, Zev, during one of her missions and saved his life by chance. Since then, they venture together in search for bounty. Although Amber is not particularly keen on keeping company, she knows there is a benefit to having Zev by her side and does not hesitate to encourage his loyalty. Despite having been traveling together for years, the only things Zev knows about her past is that she once let an innocent person pay for a crime she committed (for which she showed no remorse) and that her warlock powers did not come naturally to her. Zev believes that she travelled far to find a powerful master who could grant her magic.

In the Greedy Greens, Amber has done her best to keep a low profile, staying away from missions that seemed too risky and likely to expose her identity to powerful organizations. She is extremely suspicious of any institutional powers, being used to work in the underground.
