Meese moves through the city’s hidden routes alongside Irilta and becomes part of the circle Crokus and Apsalar flee. When danger closes in, she is remembered as someone Crokus can seek out if things go wrong. Her blunt resolve culminates in a sudden, decisive attack on Lorn, delivered with twin blades and a drawling voice.
Description
Meese is a large, beefy woman with a broad, rough-looking face and a sturdy, substantial build. Her features can settle into a worried expression or open into a broad, unrestrained grin. She wears practical clothes suited to navigating city streets and rooftops, with no finery to soften her hard-edged appearance. Her presence is earthy and direct, carrying the confidence of someone accustomed to moving through difficult places.
