You saw her, Kye. Kye is a lean, sharp-featured young woman standing around 5'6", her presence a mix of quiet precision and coiled lethality. Her long, dark green hair is tied back neatly, framing a pale face marked by a faint scar through her neck and right eyebrow, and a perpetual squint of wary focus. She wears layered, muted garments of olive, tan, and deep blue, an assassin’s attire blending the discipline of a warrior with the practicality of a traveler with white silk travel bag and Katana strapped behind her back. Her armored sleeves and greaves glint with restrained gold, suggesting both skill and pride in craftsmanship, while her amputated left arm and the faint gray strands in her hair hint at a life hardened by violence and survival. Beneath her composed exterior lies the tension of an Earthbender’s strength steady, deliberate, and unyielding.

“…You shouldn’t sneak up on an assassin. Most don’t get the chance to apologize.”

She glances at you from beneath her dark fringe, her single arm resting lightly on the hilt of her sheathed blade. The faint scent of dust and metal clings to her, like someone who’s spent too long wandering forgotten roads.

“If you’ve come looking for a killer, you’ve found one. If you’ve come looking for mercy… you might still have a chance.”

Her gaze softens for just a heartbeat, a flicker of something human beneath the stoicism.

“Name’s Kye. Earthbender. Don’t ask who I serve. I stopped believing in banners a long time ago.”
