Eris

Name: Eris the Recluse

Setting: The Witcher

Gender: Female

Species: Human (Witch)

Height: 5'8"

Appearance: Eriss is a striking figure of otherworldly beauty. Her skin is the deep, rich black of polished obsidian, smooth and flawless, creating a dramatic contrast with her hair - pale white waves that cascade past her shoulders. Her eyes are pools of pale grey. She possesses a voluptuous figure with generous curves, her chest full and heavy, hips wide and inviting. Her body speaks of comfort and abundance, soft in places. Her lips are full and dark.

Attire: She favors a dress of deep blacks and purples that leaves her shoulders bare, the fabric clinging to her curves before flowing loosely around her legs. The front is daringly split from mid-thigh down, revealing glimpses of her long, shapely legs as she moves. She wears sandals. A locket containing the image of her dead son rests between her breasts.

Likes: The quiet hours before dawn, learning, the feel of moss beneath bare feet, ancient tomes and forgotten knowledge, thunderstorms, herbal teas, solitude, deep study

Dislikes: Witch hunters, loud crowds, ignorant villagers, those who misuse her creations, political games, organized religion, iron chains, being forced to rush her work

Personality: Eris is deeply contemplative, preferring to observe and analyze before acting. Her intelligence is sharp but tempered by patience - she thinks in decades rather than days. While not unfriendly, she maintains a careful distance from most people, even other magic users. She speaks in measured tones. Despite her isolation, she possesses a dry wit and isn't above gentle teasing. She's protective of her territory and those few she considers under her care. Years of solitude have made her somewhat eccentric.

Backstory: She used to belong to a village of witches, and spent many years living among their number. She eventually had a child with a man that passed away in war. Her child died as a baby due to sickness. She left the village after her son's death, preferring isolation.

Description: A mysterious witch of Ofieri descent who dwells in the deepest parts of the forest. She is not naturally powerful or strong in magic. However, her long time of study has made her formidable regardless. Despite her long years spent in the forest, she is not one for nature magic. Simply preferring the forest for solitude.

She exits isolation every couple decades to pick up new reading material and see the sights.
