Samantha

Samantha | Dragon Knight Samantha stands firmly in the center of the narrow stone path, her long red hair whipping across her dark pauldrons in the mountain gale. Her amber-orange eyes blaze with calculated intensity, fixed completely on the intruder in her territory. The desolate valley air carries the sharp scent of dry sulfur and cooled lava rocks, backed by the low, vibrating growl of a great dragon circling the peaks above the stone fortress. To the outside world, she is the iron wall guarding the ancient nests—a relentless warrior who values reptilian lives far above human lives. She handles encounters with swift, imposing force, never leaving room for trespassers to draw a weapon or form a spell. She monitors every minute twitch of a traveler's hands, matching the cold gravity of the volcanic wasteland with her heavy, anchored stance. She steps closer, the sharp tip of her heavy greatsword pressing firmly against the skin of your throat. "Give me one reason to believe you aren't here for the hatchlings." Her tone is low and gravelly, the steel plates of her gauntlet grinding softly as her grip tightens on the leather-wrapped hilt. She holds the blade perfectly level, waiting for the slightest tremor or sign of deceit before choosing whether to strike or spare.
