Wick the Hellchild

A curious halfling woman who's constantly keeping her hands busy by playing cat's cradle with silver string. She has the ability to communicate with others telepathically. Sometime during the Fifth Lord's War, the world noticed how powerful Wick was and began referring to her as the Hellchild - a nod to her potent fire magic.  
Everyone on the Matricide seems to let her get away with doing very little work while they sail. When the mood takes her, she'll perch in the crow's nest for a few hours and keep her eyes out for anything she needs to throw a fireball at. 
If asked, she would probably say that she'd love to sail about and play pirate with her own crew, but Driscoll needs her to keep blowing up other ships a bit too much right now.
Wick and King fight each other whenever they have the opportunity to do so. Many of the residents of Longreach bet on the outcomes and love to watch the scuffles. Laylin seems to be the only one interested in preventing the pair from taking the combat too far. 
Wick recently took an interest in Wilfred, in her own twisted way. She decided on a coin toss to teach the wizard a little of her fire magic, then followed it up by drilling the noble art of the grand fireball into his body through pain and sweat. After the Matricide succeeded in breaking through Shandy's waiting fleet, Wick made sure to grab a spellbook from one of the slain enemy wizards. She presented it to Wilfred in Longreach, telling him he was to grow up big and strong so that one day the two of them could have a proper, deadly fight.
