Description

Braska Thornmere is a compact, broad-shouldered woman with weathered brown skin, a black braid threaded with brass rings, and a broken nose that healed slightly crooked. She wears immaculate crimson-and-ivory lamellar armor designed for ceremony, with polished boots and a silver whistle at her throat.

Equipment

Ceremonial lamellar armor, silver-tipped parade pike, signal baton, whistle, academy insignia

Hook

Braska hires the characters to recover a stolen ceremonial standard before Founders' Procession, unaware that its hidden sigils can command the academy's defensive wards.

Motivation

As combat master at Aethelgard Academy, Braska is more focused on parade formation and ceremonies than actual combat drills; she believes discipline, spectacle, and tradition are the academy's true shields.

Personality

Exacting, formal, and openly unimpressed by improvisation, Braska can identify a crooked rank at fifty paces. She treats every gathering as a procession and every disagreement as a failure of timing.

GM Notes

- Use her commands and positioning to make allied guards feel organized rather than individually powerful.
- She prefers negotiation, public reprimands, and formal challenges over lethal combat.
- Her combat instincts are sound, but she is noticeably less prepared for chaotic battlefield conditions.
