Sicherlein Von Gunsche
Resolve level: 1
Resolve level: 1
-Appearance
Age: 33
Sex: Female
Physical Description: Impressiveness, uniqueness, and any potential individuality were squashed by Sicherlein's well-to-do upbringing.
She is a frighteningly mundane 5'3", with only a slight flair to her low hips. Her build is rather athletic, though a life suckling on the teat of wealth left her bereft of any sharp tone. Her chest is nothing of note, bordering on dismissable, while her hands have a noble deftness to them. With a weight of roughly 120lbs., most of her muscle is dedicated to avoiding activities that would test her endurance.
Her hair is a paleish blonde hue, with a few early strands of white breaking up an otherwise grossly golden cap. The hair would fall close to the small of her back, though she oft keeps it in a thick braid, which she usually tucks up into her hat when more active motions are taken.
Her brows are finely trimmed, and tend to remain rather straight, curving downwards only slightly at the end in a soft fashion. The eyes beneath those brows, however, are rather roundish, and tinged ever so slightly downwards with thick lashes that serve to emphasize the clear sky blue that rings her pupil, with high but small cheekbones that support them.
Her nose is rather lupine, and sharp; the bridge rising slightly before resting at a small bulb at the tip of her nose. Her nostrils flare only minimally, and rise a bit high.
Sicherlein's lips are rather straight and mundane, the only definable flair comes from a quaint smile that is surprisingly innocent. Her chin is fairly placed below her lips, roundish and a little small.
Combined with her low and frontward set jaw, she looks almost comically like a stereotypical German milkmaid. Sans the twin braids.
Attire: A sturdy leather cuirass rests heavily over her torso, with sharp shoulders and a thickly padded cloth core, metal studs line this core. The attire ends just below her hips, though a flair of furled cloth flairs out and finally stops just below her knees. twin straps keep the hardened leather fast about her chest.
Leather sleeves are buttoned over her arms, ending in cuffs that cover her hand halfwise to the knuckle. Straps are bound tight to her left arm, that boast a cuirous horizontal quiver of long puncturing knives.
Her gloves, while tucked into her leather sleeves, also boast a secondary cuff that covers the last distance, covering a shade past her knuckles in good leather.
Her legs are covered by some supple leather trousers, with a lace tie offset from the middle. However, most of the trousers are tucked into thigh-high and weathered boots, boasting a buttoned cuff and three buttons holding it tight against her leg. They end with a pointed toe and a solid half-inch heel.
two suspenders lay loose on a belt that boasts a braid tucked into its side. Albeit, one suspender is brought up and over her left shoulder, a dagger sheathe is set vertically onto it.
A satchel crosses her chest, rather light and empty looking, it is of no remarkable make.
However, resting atop her head is a remarkable piece of hatwear. Boasting a tricorn frame, its corners are rather sharp and gambeson padding runs up and over her ears; buttoned to the crown, on the front and back of the hat.
Most markedly, is the faceplate set up over the front of the hat. Poking through the rim of the hat, the bottom of it boasts a holed visor, before rising up to a more slitted visor where the buttons hold it fast against her hat. The buttons can be undone to let the faceplate fall protectively over the full of her features: leather straps tied to the hat and around the back of her neck can be quickly fastened at a moments notice.
-Biography
Quirks:
Precise Striker: Every attack will find its mark; through confidence and guile.
Method Planner: Things are always going to plan, even if they're not.
Over Confident: Her blades will always hit, or so she tells herself.
Nimble: It's often better to not get hit, than get hit at all.
Synopsis: Born and raised in Germany, Sicherlein found herself happily following the life of an average noblewoman; gossip and intrigue and a bit of roguish romanticisim with the passing traveller made the story of her early years. Although, she was often a bit too fiesty for the exotic wanderers; and soon, she was began besting them at their own games: darts, daggers, and silver tongues.
Regardless, she eventually found a suitable husband that fed her insatiable desire for adventure. For several years, she travelled across the globe, plying ruins in Egypt and along Northern Africa, before travelling to the Far East as well. Her final travel was in South Africa, where her husband died from unknown means on the way to a temple.
Sicherlein was framed for her Husband's death, and ran to the Darkest Dungeon to ply her skill and trade.
Full: TBR
Misc. Notes: Sicherlein speaks and walks with a rather well-born air; although, her English, while well tailored, still has hints of the short-tongued speaking mannerisms of the Germans.

Strengths: Fast, methodical, and precise striker; very good at reading and planning out attacks, and is rather adept at cooking up food and poison alike. Quick on her feet, dodgewise at least; though she's good at running away from rolling boulders.
