Briar - Wicca
Briar
Briar is a young human witch born into a military family, her father is a sergeant and her mother is a certified wicca with the same troop. She is the 3rd child and her older brothers are men-at-arms. The family has traveled with their Lords troop, manning castles and fighting bandits in the highlands and moorlands.
She has spent some time with her brothers, mostly to learn a few ranger skills and to mind the horses and animals while they are out scouting. She has also spent time with her mother learning a few witchy ways, gaining some simple skills in talking to and blessing the beasts of the troop; pack horses, cart horses/oxen, war dogs, cavalry mounts and making sure the food animals are healthy.
Briar's fighting skills are those of a beginner, she uses a Saber and Buckler, and she has a Short Bow.
Briar's mage skills are also those of a beginner, she can converse with animals, cast darkness and move "unseen". She prefers to bless livestock before dawn or after dusk.
Briar has a familar Ash, a mist crow (since a black crow is a bit too witchy for soldiers comfort). She always carries a small pouch of meal worms to feed Ash and shares his eyes to map out the landscape while trekking.
Ash
Ash: is a mist or hooded crow and is an ashy grey bird with black head, throat, wings, tail, and thigh feathers, as well as a black bill, eyes, and feet. Like other corvids the mist crows are very intelligent, they are omnivorous and opportunistic foragers, eating; insects, berries, grain, crabs, mollusks and carrion. Mist crows live in cold to temperate zones, and in a wide variety of habitats; mountains, moors, woodland edges, estuaries, coastal cliffs, shrubland, fields, cultivated areas, and the urban environment.

- Weapons
- Crows can attack only in Close Combat with their beak (BC 50%, D10-6 damage).
- Comments
- When in combat crows tend to go for the eyes, so the armour protection rating for the character defending against crows should be decreased by 3 or 4 points.
