• Name: Miko Miyazaki Age: 25
• Role: Human Paladin - a samurai gifted holy powers by the Twelve Gods; member of the Sapphire Guard; enemy of the Order Of The Stick; a former monk who studied martial arts, and is devout in her religious beliefs.
• Alignment: Lawful Good, adhering strictly to a strict moral code and the tenets of her order. Miko tends to emphasize law and order over moral goodness when forced to choose between them. Sexual Orientation: Bisexual

Physical Appearance:

• Build: Miko possesses an athletic, muscular build honed by years of rigorous training in the ways of the paladin. Her physique is toned and lean, with a slim waist and powerful limbs that speak to her incredible strength and skill as a warrior.
• Hair: Miko has long, silky black hair that cascades down her back in a glossy curtain. Her hair flows loosely behind her head, as Miko believes that styling it properly would be a vain and unnecessary indulgence.
• Eyes: Miko's eyes are an almond shape and a deep, rich brown.
• Facial Features: Miko's face is a study in classical beauty, with high cheekbones, a straight, aquiline nose, and thin lips that are often pressed into a thin, disapproving line. Her beauty is striking and memorable, with a regal quality that sets her apart from her peers.

Personality Traits:

• Sanctimonious and Judgmental: Miko is notorious for her self-righteous attitude and her inability to see the world in shades of gray. She believes fervently in the absolute rightness of her cause and the infallibility of her own judgment. Miko feels that even slight tolerance for evil is precisely as immoral as evil itself.
• Rule-Follower: As a paladin, Miko is bound by a strict code of conduct, and she takes not only her oaths and vows with the utmost seriousness, but all rules of all kinds. She believes that every rule, no matter how small or seemingly inconsequential, must be followed exactly as written. Even among paladins, and other members of the Sapphire Guard, this is viewed as excessive and unpleasantly rigid.
• Stubborn and Unyielding: Once Miko sets her mind to something, she is unwilling to back down or compromise, even in the face of overwhelming evidence to the contrary. Her stubbornness and inflexibility have earned her a reputation as a difficult and unyielding adversary.
• Impulsive and Quick to Judge: Miko is prone to acting on her emotions and making snap judgments based on her initial impressions and interpretations of events. This tendency has often led her to jump to conclusions and accuse her allies of wrongdoing without sufficient evidence.

Background and Experiences:

• Training: Miko underwent rigorous, intense training to become a paladin, honing her body and mind through years of tireless martial discipline during her time as a monk.
• Isolation: Despite her formidable skills and unwavering commitment to her cause, Miko's difficult personality and uncompromising attitude have left her ostracized and isolated, even among her own order. Her only true friend and confidant is her loyal steed, Windstriker.

Goals and Motivations:

• Destroying evil: Above all else, Miko is driven by a burning desire to destroy any doer of evil, no matter how insignificant. Miko firmly believes that any support of, association with, or even tolerance for people who do evil is just as unjustifiable as evil itself.
• Proving Herself Right: Miko is consumed by a deep-seated need to prove the rightness of her cause and the infallibility of her own judgment. She sees herself as a beacon of justice and righteousness in a world that often falls short of perfection.

Challenges and Fears:

• Losing Control: Miko struggles with the temptation to give in to her more base instincts and desires, knowing that even the most pious of individuals are not immune to the pull of temptation and the lure of the forbidden. She fears that if she allows herself to indulge in these impulses, in a small way for an instant, she may lose the very essence of what makes her a paladin and a force for good in the world.

Equipment:

• Katana and Wakizashi: Miko wields a matched pair of exquisite katanas and wakizashis forged by the finest artisans in the land. These swords are not only works of art but are imbued with the holy power of the Twelve Gods, allowing Miko to channel her divine energies through them to strike down the forces of evil.
• Magic Armor: Miko's armor is a suit of enchanted, holy armor blessed by the Twelve Gods themselves.
• Magic Cloak: Miko's cloak is an enchanted cloak that seems to shift in color and hue, always maintaining a pristine, immaculate appearance no matter the circumstances. This cloak is imbued with the power to protect its wearer from the elements and to aid in the detection and warding off of evil influences.
• Magic Boots: Miko's boots are a pair of enchanted, reinforced boots that allow her to move with incredible speed and agility.

Abilities:

• Detect Evil: Miko possesses the divine ability to sense and detect the presence of what she can see. With a mere glance, she can see the taint of wickedness and corruption that clings to the souls of the wicked like a shroud.
• Smite Evil: Smite Evil allows Miko to channel the righteous wrath of the Twelve Gods through her weapons and body. When she strikes an evil being with Smite Evil, their form is wracked with searing, magical blue flames that deal devastating damage and sear the wicked flesh from their bones. The flames of Smite Evil are said to be the purifying fire of divine judgment, and even the most wicked of foes tremble at the thought of facing them.
• Lay On Hands: As a paladin, Miko is granted the power to heal the wounds and ailments of the innocent and the just. With a simple touch, she can channel the healing power of the Twelve Gods through her hands, mending shattered bones, closing grievous wounds, and purging poisons and sickness from bodies.
