Wraithbow is a former pickpocket turned arcane archer.

Appearance

Andrea stands 5'8" and weighs about 140 lbs. Long auburn hair and soft blue eyes combine to make her a moderately subtle beauty, which is offset by her sometimes intense stare and somewhat athletic build. Her clothes are almost always second-hand.

Personality

She initially comes across as confident, but people who get to know her for a longer period of time will begin to pick up on her the insecurities and uncertainty beneath the surface. Andrea has some decent drive because of her background, and would rather strive to earn her way than have people take pity on her and give her a handout. She's generally honest to people she thinks deserve it, and she's not afraid of working hard. She's a little slow to trust sometimes because that was just something that wasn't typically a good idea in her childhood, but if her loyalty is gained she'll keep to it fiercely. Andrea can display some moments of empathy, especially if someone's experiences bear similarities to her own. She's attracted to kindred spirits, often some of the few people she'll genuinely care for because her heart goes out to them. She doesn't think terribly highly of her own mind because she never had a formal education and so has a tendency to believe she's not very smart, despite that not being true. She's often quick to laugh and smile at jokes, but sometimes if things just seem silly to her she's more likely to facepalm or roll her eyes. On the other end of the spectrum, she has displayed that she's got a bit of a temper and so far as it's shown itself to her new friends and crew, it seems to reach a peak when she starts dumping alcoholic drinks on the person that pissed her off.

History

Andrea's childhood was spent on the streets of Westside as part of a child pickpocketing ring...a street gang's fringe project. If her take was good enough, she got food and a leaky roof over her head. Many of the children involved in the pickpocket ring ended up turning to drugs, but Andrea squirreled away what money she could, determined to make it out of that life. Eventually she was found by a man named Drystan Zauberei, and she learned not to pick the pocket of a wizard. Instead of punishing her, however, he took pity on her and took her in. Through her teenage years and into adulthood she trained with the bow and a decent amount of magic, apprenticing with Drystan for twelve years. Coupling these skills together, Andrea began to target the drug dealers that had brought down so many of her fellow pickpockets. Eventually, she progressed to bigger and more powerful targets, particularly an ice dragon construct from Faerie that was being used to lead an invasion of Earth. After that she returned to doing her own thing for a time before joining Cerberus Tactical Solutions.

Abilities

Wraithbow is a skilled pickpocket and archer. She's fairly proficient in being stealthy and has an innate talent for magic.

Spell Repetoire

Andrea specializes mostly in conjuring spectral arrows and some moderate amounts of shadow magic. Her spells are typically cast using Welsh phrases, since her mentor was from Wales, or are done silently. Most of her spells perform utility functions, she doesn't really know any offensive or healing spells. In addition to this, she can only cast so much magic in a day before it wears her out and she'll literally just pass out from exhaustion.

Spectral Arrows: Conjure a spectral arrow in her hand. The spectral arrow is not really physical and thus can penetrate most armor that doesn't have some kind of anti-magic effect on it.

Shadowstep: Step into one shadow and go through it to step out of another somewhere else. She's limited to doing this about half a dozen times or so before it gets too taxing.

Shadow Meld: Step into a shadow and essentially become part of it, disappearing from sight and losing physical form but retaining awareness of her surroundings.

Sleep: Through contact, put someone into a deep sleep. It's possible to amplify this to affect more than one person, but it takes more effort.

Clear Mind: Another contact spell designed to combat mind control and mental influence from Fae, but it works against other things such as vampires and telepaths, as well.

Track: Using something that belonged to an individual, or having had physical contact with them, she can magically track them almost like following a scent trail. Parameters can be included that take into account physical appearance and other qualifiers if she knows them to help narrow it down. Can be used to track familiar objects, as well. (Canllaw fy ngolwg, arwain fy meddwl. Dangoswch i mi yr hyn yr wyf yn ceisio dod o hyd. -guide my sight, guide my mind. Show me what I seek to find.)

Storage: Create a small pocket dimension in which to store things. Can be accessed at will in most cases.

Sense Magic: Detect and analyze the purpose and origin of a spell or enchantment. This includes feeling out mystic markings, figuring out the properties of magic objects, and tracing magic in a given area.

Detect Truth: Sense when someone is or isn't telling the truth.

Dazzling Light: A burst of blinding light for distracting or dazing opponents.

Deflect Scrying: Ward off attempts at magic and psychic remote viewing and listening.

Containment Barrier: A mystic barrier to hold something back, keeping something out, or keep something contained. Can be shaped, for example, as a circle. Used against creatures and people, but doesn't act to keep out projectiles. (yn fy amddiffyn rhag y rhai sy'n dymuno i mi niweidio - protect me from those that wish me harm)

Cleanse: Purify someone or something of outside influence or dark magic. Remove mild curses and dispel effects of desecration. (dod purdeb at hynny cyn i mi - bring purity to that before me)

Dark Sight: Magically enchance her eyes to see even in the pitch dark.

Equipment

Andrea carries a regular compound bow, and a quiver that she often has filled with spectral arrows ahead of time so that she doesn't have to tax herself conjuring more in the middle of battle. However, she also has an object known as a Soul Flower; a magical flower that is the incarnation of a soul and only grows in certain circumstances. Andrea has The Azure Empress; the incarnation of the soul that endured many maladies... one of only eight Soul Flowers. This particular flower was given to her by Haze, another member of Cerberus Tactical Solutions, after it displayed a strong affinity for Andrea.

The Azure Empress is usually in the form of a thick bracelet made of folded azure leaves. However, when she wishes it to, The Azure Empress can shift into a bow or crossbow and provides its own ammo that is tipped in spectral fire and capable of going straight through most armors, even ones resistant to supernatural force. The Azure Empress bow looks to be comprised of folded, compacted azure leaves; and the arrows it forms are like tiny saplings with feathered leaf fletchings and spade-shaped leaf arrowheads that burn with a spectral fire. When Wraithbow draws the string back all the way, the bow splits into an X shape and the arrow becomes tipped in a virtual ghostly inferno.

A magic amulet with a crescent moon-shaped pendant made from hematite given to her by Arbitter to prevent mental intrusions.

Aside from that, her equipment is comprised of some lightweight armor, a ritual knife, a hood, a mask, and some spell components stored in the pouches on her belt.

Connections

Wraithbow is a member of the Cerberus Tactical Solutions team. She is also still in occasional contact with her mentor, Drystan Zauberei.

Friends outside of the team include: Jason Harper aka Killshot
