Ashenport: Shura Bryseis

Shura is a member of an The Order of the Lidded Eye, and arcane order dedicated to the investigation of strange phenomena and the collection of magical knowledge. As you can imagine this is not without risk, and while the order and its members are primarily self-interested, they often end up putting the lid back on jars that were better left unopened (and carrying off what's left). Shura is known within her order as a talented solver of difficult problems; generally the sort of problems that are best stabbed, and on fire.

Shura is tall and wiry, with long black hair, dark red-brown skin and piercing orange eyes. She has a spiky personality, and doesn't suffer fools gladly. Her armour is patterned in red and black, as is the rest of her gear.

Combat & Tactics

Default actions:

• vs. single target: Mark it, and smack it with Greenflame Blade. It can then violate the mark and get Assaulted, or hit me back and eat a White Lotus Riposte.
• vs. multiple targets: Use Sword Burst, and Mark a non-adjacent target (one as far away as possible, particularly if I can mark-move-attack). The Mark has to move around its allies to get to me, or violate the mark and get Assaulted - and all the targets I do hit are subject the White Lotus Riposte as before.
• vs. minions: whichever of Sword Bust or Greenflame blade gets most of them in the AoE.
