[QUOTE="Lou, post: 4678612, member: 51567"] I'll take that. Here's a proposed background; Addison was trained in the [s]long sword[/s] [U]flail[/U] as a girl by her father, who was a knight in the service of the Church. Due to her strong inner strength, she entered a small order aligned with Saint Heironeous dedicated to the training of warmages. After several years, she took a leave and studied in a convent where the powers of the undead are researched so the Church's knowledge is not lost. She asked to become a Sacred Exorcist after lengthy discussions with the Mother Superior. Normally, warmages do not become Sacred Exorcists, and women are not normally accepted at all. The Order agreed to her being tested, thinking that she would never pass the initiation. In what was the toughest initiation in recent history, Addison passed, but she received a scar on the left side of her face from the middle of her nose to her ear. The head of the order was embarassed that she was scarred, and the Church made arrangements for the scar to be removed. Addison refused, saying only, "Some battles leave scars." The Sacred Exocists reluctantly admited Addison, and she has access to the training and research of the Order, but Addison has been assigned to the Great North to keep her as far from the Valley as possible. Her Order is secretly proud of her, but the Church heirarchy is unhappy that a woman has been made a Sacred Exorcist. Addison wears a cloak with a deep cowl over her armor, with the holy symbol of Saint Heironsous hanging in front. She is often mistaken as a monk and overlooked if only noticed in passing. [/QUOTE]
