Description
Sikandi´s elemental aspect is written all over her - from the bronzed skin to the crimson hair to the amber-colored eyes. Tall, lithe and beautiful, she enjoys accentuating her natural looks with extravagant modes of dress - most often, she enjoys appearing as the "travelling hero", incorporating various exotic accesoirs into her overall appearance. The hair is almost always worn in a complex pattern of braids or in a large ponytail. Face pattern paints, body jewelry and various trophy items are common ingredients in her wardrobe arsenal.

Artifact details
- The Black Crow Queen, Skyship (Artifact 5)
The Black Crow Queen is a long, slender three-masted air-vessel. The ship is a beautiful though jury-rigged First Age model with a lot of the magitech wonders either asleep, nonfunctional or simply stripped off along the years - it could once fly without the sails, for example, but now needs them to be able to navigate.
- (X), Royal Warstrider (Artifact 5)
(X) is a legendary Royal Warstrider alluded to in several ancient texts - in fact, one granted to a superior Dragonblooded warrior by her Solar lord during the latter stages of the Primodrial War, but for obvious reasons this is not known to anyone except some gods and Sidereal scholars. Sikandi uncovered and liberated the Warstrider herself from its´ watery prison in the Tchekthce Jungles - it´s Animating Intelligence still mostly asleep, it has never the less begun to whisper to her when she is in the Strider, and Sikandi has often chosen to meditate enclosed in the artifact as she finds it´s not-quite-quantifiable presence comforting.
- Skin-Mount Amulet (Artifact 2)
Inset by her breastbone, this artifact/body jewelry is most often adorned with a Hearthstone.
Hearthstone and manse details
- Monkey Stone (Wood)(Manse 2, Ex2C p383)
-2 to diff (minimum 1) on Athletics tests involving balance, jumping or climbing. Doubles climbing speed and jumping distance.

Adds +1 to Dodge DV (final), and +1 to the Accuracy when inset in a weapon (note: last is my reading).

answer
4) What weaknesses do you possess that aren't just personal failings, but could be exploited by your enemies to cost you the Game of Thrones? What are the fields of engagement where you can't just apply Game Theory analysis, but instead will act against your interests?
