She carries an air of enigma as she waltzes through the street or through the woods. Her hair cascades down her back like elegant silver wings and the emerald green portals of her eyes are both captivating and enchanting. She has a graceful and slender figure, allowing her to be quite nimble and light on her feet. Her wardrobe mainly consists of colors of ivory, emerald, and gold. She dresses in many ambivalent ways, someday dressing elegantly and demonstrating her feminine charm, others dressing more masculine, sometimes to the extent that some may mistake her for a male. In some occasions, she will even use skills that mask her appearance or alter it, becoming like a chameleon in nature. | Personality Improvising, adapting, and overcoming are Widow signature trademarks. They are the three pillars that uphold her when encountering adversity. She prefers the art of manipulation, trickery, and deception to exploit her opponents weaknesses. She often relies on her primal instincts and cunning to achieve her goal. Often relying on unconventional and unpredictable means, to disorient or disarm her opponent. She is extremely perceptive in nature and often studies and observes people as she goes people watching. She’s typically Reclusive in nature, yet approachable to those that desire conversation with her. Most can find her deep in thought or enjoying solitude. She enjoys literature and is an avid reader, often carrying several tomes with her. She is often for introverted and seclusive around Adventurers and the general population in general, given her past. She was bred with an innate survival instinct, living most of her life in the woods. She prefers not to enter places with large populations, and will often mask or even alter her appearance in order to conceal her identity. Having the horrible stigma attached to Heretics and being prosecuted for a crime, Widow has become untrusting of many as she lives out her life as an outlaw, having been an Escaped Convict from the Stratford Wardens. |

Biography
Most details about Widow are unknown, the are rumors however, that she is a young heretic who has somehow evaded prosecution for the murder of a noble, Alexander Von Drake. during some period either before or after the Heresy Trials. She minds her own business at her awkwardly elegant home in the poorer districts of Londiminium, and local peasants does not care much about her questionable presence most of the time. She also spends the vast majority of her time out in the wilderness, sticking to the woods for large periods of time.
Daughter of a war hero, Elizabeth Hightower grew up as a struggling child living up to her family’s name. As a child she had to stay with her father, Arangalion Hightower, after her mother, the great sage , Sairilis, left her father to sail east, to the land of Polaris. Unfortunately, her obligations to her bloodline outweighed her wish to study the elements under her mother, Widow was forced to learn the lucrative aspects of warfare from the military officer’s academy when her raw talents where discovered. At that time, she was sent to many towns outside of Blackwood and her passion for Nature began to bloom.
Growing up away from her family made Widow focus in upon herself more and more. The rough tutelage of the military, in the ways of survival, created a tough ruthlessness inside her. Growing ever physically stronger as the seasons past, Widow became skilled at using her physical environment around her in tandem with her abilities. While miles away, Widow was learning the qualities of deception and trickery through political discourse, she was learning of the rawness of physical labor and patience of ambushing her prey.
Since she first learned to manipulate Miasma and learned of her talents she was always fascinated in the use of her dark arts, and decided to put them to good use to protect those dear to her. Preparing to ship out for countless battles, she would soon discover if he was ready for war, she was always showing off his skills to her friend, Cricket, whom lived in the same village as she, and practiced by herself to train her skills. She spent most of his time training & studying on how to further develop her skills.
As a warrior and and strategist, Widow shows traits that compare to both sides of the same coin. While she is more prone to straight out physical assaults, she is also known as the thinker who uses deceptions and decoys to sidle up and strike. Though competent on her own, Widow was always dependent on the fellowship between her and her allies when fighting straight up with other opponents. In turn, they were always dependent on his her to cause confusion on the field and create opportunities for them to attack while Widow drew the enemies attention by disorienting them. Though all were quiet individuals, their dedication to each other was unflinching.
Both at home in the woods, one a soldier and dark sorceress by training and student of nature and deceit, the other a sympathetic ear always listening to her tales of adventure, the duo were quite the team.
But one day, all the hopes and dreams of the two would vanish for an eternity...

CLASS SKILLS
Main Class: Heretic
Form Shift
Tier I Skill
A magical skill that allows the character to transform their appearances slightly, although there are no changes to one's interface. Most of these appearance changes are rather minor, allowing one to change their physical appearance so that their face, hair, or body size might differ a little. It is possible to consciously influence which physical features get changed. However, it is unlikely that one will be able to change their appearance to resemble a specific character at this stage. There is a small MP upkeep to keep the effect sustained.

Gluttonous Haze
Tier I Skill
The Heretic casts a spell onto a target, causing a thin black mist to surround their body.

This spell, combined with Tainted Charity, allows the Heretic to take a slightly more support-oriented playstyle. However, keep in mind that the presence of the black aura has been linked to mood swings and aggressive among those affected by it. Gluttonous Haze has a duration of 10 seconds, a 4 second cast time, and a 20 second cooldown. While a target is affected by this skill, their Mind resistance is reduced by 1 stage.
