"I am finding there is little simplicity to be found in any world."

The Wind Seraph Boudicca was raised in isolation, and came to be known to mankind as the Beast of Lohgrin, an animate statue of the Black Dragon which occupied the mountains south-west of Lohgrin. The Beast of Lohgrin was known for protecting those humans who dwelt close to her mountain... and for keeping any of them from passing into the wild swamplands beyond the mountains, by force, if necessary. Althena's return and announcement of a new Lord of Calamity drew her down from her mountains into the world of Man, where she discovered she was not alone - and despite her archaic turn of phrase and sense of remove from humanity, she realised she was far from the oldest thing on Lunar. She is often anxious, frequently awkward, frustratingly overbearing, and struggles to handle emotional turmoil, but her kindness and enthusiasm for humanity always shines through. Recently, an Oracle pact with the Fire Guardian Moor Gault left her vessel melted down to an unusable state - and so, for the first time in over two hundred years, she is walking the worlds as Boudicca once more. She is learning just how complex the world of Man can be... and just how strong the people within are. So, too, has she come to learn that the spirit of humanity is no different on Filgaia than on Lunar, and this is the core of her devotion to the people of Filgaia's safety, far from Althena's protection and afflicted by the maladies of her world.

Background

"I want to help them."

The Beast of Lohgrin haunted the mountains south of Lohgrin for two centuries, and then it turned out that creature was actually a Seraph, and that Seraph turned out to be Boudicca, and Boudicca is making waves as an Oracle these days. That's basically it, right?

Powers and Abilities

  • Wooden tonfa, polished to a shine. Thonk!
  • Wind-elemental Seraph magic - both white and black. Woosh!
  • Fire-elemental Oracle magic, in the form of enhancements for her Seers and other helpful mortals. Fwoom!
  • Dried leaves, pre-charged with windy magic. Crunch!
  • A backpack full of all the things mortals need to live, like trail mix and water and a blanket and magnesium cream. (Just trust her on that last one.) Nomph!
  • A brazier torch, made from the ruined remains of her vessel's claws. Shiny!

Trivia

  • She enjoys birdwatching, though she doesn't know the names of most of the birds.
  • Her other hobby is braiding vines and weaving branches, which is much easier these days. Ask her about basket-weaving or doing your hair!
  • If she ever uses archaic or formal language incorrectly, don't worry, it's just a translation error.
  • She borrows her voice from Motoko Kusanagi of Ghost in the Shell fame, another character who uses an artificial body.
