Eria

In the times after magic is removed from the world, society crashes as their main way of life disappears. In this time, several atrocities are commited, many by the bands of mercenaries that form. All of these people are extremely skilled in combat, many driven by greed, bloodthirst or vengance. Eria, 17, is part of the second largest of these groups- the Arlyniuti (literally meaning monsters in the Carian language) - though not by choice. At the age of seven, her mother and two brothers were killed by the Arlyniut while trying to revolt, and she was taken into the group, essentially as a joke. Since then, she has trained tirelessly in armed combat, using both the dagger and a weapon called the Mathet-Katets, a sort of long knife with several points curving upwards along the curved edge, and becoming very skilled - probably the fifteenth-strongest of the Arlyniuts. She often acts as a scout or envoy for the group. Despite her position, she hates the act of killing people, only doing it while trying to bide her time for revenge against the murder of her mother, and she is apalled by the inconsideration the other members seem to feel while killing so gleefully.
