Her concept a radical, Dianic Wiccan feminist. Her general background is that she grew up on the streets of Seattle after running away from an abusive father, only to suffer and witness more Bad Things at the hands of men. At some point, she found out about a local Dianic Wiccan coven (not an entirely magical group, more like a religious worship group), and it was during her first ecstatic Goddess ritual that she Awakened, and was touched by her Mentor, the vengeful Dark Goddess, who placed a tear-shaped mark on her face to contain all of her sadness and pain, and allow her to focus on vengeance. She took the name Solitary Tear, and set out to exact punishment on men in general for all the evils they have collectively wrought. She adheres to a strict code of not killing other women, unless they turn on their sisters in favor of men, in which case they are traitors and can be executed. I would have made that a Geas, but there's nothing in the book to represent it... Anyway, Tear is a runner because it allows her to strike at the male dominated hierarchy, each run bringing it one step closer to toppling, or so she believes.

What I like about the sheet is that I gain really neato Adept powers without losing much off of my spellcasting. I think I might be able to make a full mage more effective, but for some reason I want Tear to be a spellcaster. With her very combat focused abilities, she almost looks like she's trying to be a weak sammy, but it's important to me that Tear start out physically self sufficient. I want her to be able to take all comers, within reason -- someone with her kind of militant ideals, and the Dark Goddess mentor that will sometimes cause her to use deadly force to settle a minor tussle, will need to be fairly rugged to survive. I think she serves her purpose on any team, which is providing a powerful shield against enemy magic (especially the bad head exploding kind) while contributing well to combat, as well as being very stealthy. My only worry is technological sensors like ultrasound and radar, against which she has no real defense; my only recourse would have to be spotting them first and silently blowing them up with a spell.
And here is a piccie, btw!
