Appearance

Brownish-red fur covers this minotaur body. Her mane is two shades darker and is kept neatly braided. She is powerfully built and physically fit, carrying herself with an air of confidence.

Personality

Sekra is cold and calculating and enjoys the advantages that ranks and privilege provide her. With the murder of her family she feels everyone owes her a bit a satisfaction. She is vehement in her belief that the strong should rule.

Background

Sekra de-Orlig was born the eldest child of General Zurgas de-Orlig, a general in the Imperial Marines, and his wife Kyri es-Athak, a priestess of Sargas. Her next oldest sibling was only 9 when assassins entered the family estate, capturing her parents and family. Returning home from an unauthorized "liaison", she sneaked into her parents bedroom to find the assassins standing over her father's body, his sword and shield lying limply beside him. Swearing vengeance, she grabbed up the sword and shield and slew the attackers where they stood. This was the first in a series of battles to come.

Realizing that if she stayed, more assassins would come, she gave control of Clan Orlig to a nearby cousin and joined up with her father's regiment of Imperial Marines. She has served with them since, climbing the ranks to the station of Colonel.

Currently based in occupied Silvanost, she battles with her nations enemies while secretly seeking her revenge.
