Reida

Name
Reida 'E' Emmerich

Physical Traits
Nothing more than a human female, there is very little about Reida's appearance that would cause her to stand out in a crowd amongst others of her own kind. She is often found dressed in simple clothing, favouring black or brown attire. The only time when she may stand out somewhat is when clad in leather armour riddled with various pouches or peices of equipment such as throwing knives.

When found in her armour she is usually well armed. A number of throwing knives, as previously mentioned, for a start. Aswell as two blades resting within scabbards hanging from the sides of her belt. She also has, on the side of her right boot, a small holster within which rests a single shot flintlock. She also carries on her person a number of pouches around her belt.

She appears quite 'well kept', attractive without makeup and clean with a head of brown hair that reaches down to her shoulders and collarbones. She clearly takes good care of herself in terms of fitness, having an athletic build with just the right amount of muscle. Not too little to be weak yet not too much to loose her feminine shape.

Lastly, Reida appears to have a number of small scars. Most of which are concealed by her clothing. She has a small one on the back of her left hand, three parralel scars across her right collarbone and a third scar on the right side of her neck. The rest are hidden beneath her clothes and rarely seen.

Background
Reida was born and raised in the Hillsbrad Foothills, daughter of Beatrice and Joshua Emmerich, a family of farmers. She grew up in comfort, well fed and educated, she grew up to be a healthy seventeen year old girl untill the Plague came.

When it did, when the dead rose, Reida's father traveled north with others to fend of the Undead leaving Reida and her mother to flee south. During the commotion and panic, Reida became seperated from her mother. To this day, she has no idea whether her mother or father still live.

She left Hillsbrad by boat, traveling south and following the coast. A brief stop at Menethil harbour to gather supplies before heading south untill the city of Stormwind, partialy constructed, came into sight. Here, with many other's, she saught refuge and to begin life anew. Wishing to earn her place she quickly decided to sign up in helping with the construction of Stormwind and soon found herself as a member of the Stonemason's.

As such, when the House of Noble's refused to pay for the work of the Stonemason's, she found herself behind a blood red mask and within Van Cleef's infamous Defias Brotherhood.

During her time in the Brotherhood, she gained new skills and showed exceptional abilities. Her guile and agility making the life of a bandit easy for her, yet she could not kill innocence in cold blood. As such, Reida eventually turned her back on the Brotherhood when offered a much more appealing employment. Si:7.

Hearing of her, no doubt through spies, Si:7 approached Reida offering her a job. If she refused it she would continue life as a crinimal, hunted by the law. If she accepted, her record would be cleaned. She took the offer and quickly excelled within the ranks of Stormwind Intelligence.

When the War in Northrend came however, she left. For reason's unknown. She turned her back on Si:7 and became a self employed Blade-for-Hire. Since then, she has remained as such. Little else happening to her as the war against the Scourge waged untill after the Lich King's defeat and the breaking of the world.

Some time after the Cataclysm, Reida was hired to kill a notorious feral Worgen that had been butchering innocents in Duskwood. Accepting, seeing it as little challenge, she set out to meet this foe head on and be home in time for dinner. Underestimating her foe, her guard was slow.

In the end she was victorious, but not without cost. Bitten by the beast, she was afflicted by the curse many Gilnean's suffer from. Knowing what would happen if she did not seek aid, she immediatly sought it and found it. Gaining control before it was lost. The curse is a burden, yet offers much in terms of boons. Making her faster, more agile, her senses sharper. She admires these benefits, but considers it a curse still.

To this day, Reida is a Blade-for-Hire. Apparently anyway.

Family Background
The Emmerich family originated from the north, more specifically the Hillsbrad Foothill's. They were a simple family of farmer's, a husband and wife to brought up a single child. A daughter, Reida. The Emmerich family has no real history of note, Joshua's father, his father's father and so forth all farmers.

Criminal Record
Numerous accounts of theft and assault from during the time Reida was a member of the Defias Brotherhood.

Noteable Personal Effects
Twin-Barreled Flintlock - Carried on her at all times this twin barreled flintlock is capable of delivering two lead shots from its barrels simultaineously. There is little else special regarding the workings or apperance of this firearm yet it seems to possess some sentimental value to Reida.

Dwavern Repeater Rifle - A weapon she rarely carries. This firearm appears to be a rifle that is loaded by placing a cartridge of five rounds onto the top of the gun. It is highly accurate, powerful and takes less time to reload. However, it requires much more maintenance.

Golden Signet Ring - This single golden signet ring worn upon Reida's right index finger is allways worn. The ring appears to be aged, baring upon it a coat of arms most likely that of the Emmerich family.

Twin Fireblades - Magically enchanted blades in Reida's possesion, she rarely carries them with her unless truely neccesary. The blades are in truth only a pair of enchanted hilts, the blades of the weapons (composed of molten metal and flickering fire), only emerge from the hilts upon the command of the wielder. Judging by the patterns and decoration upon the hilts the weapons are of High Elven origin.

Current Status
Alive and well, often seen around Stormwind, save for when she doesn't wish to be seen..
