Mercurial

====
===Origins===
Johanna Mercurial is a powerful female warrior, trained heavily in swordsmanship and a compelling military strategist. She is sought after by many governments, organizations and factions in an attempt to have her on their board permanently, as everyone is impressed at her battle record - having never lost a battle she's been in charge of.
Although she prefers to pick fights for causes that seem appropriate or useful for herself, she is known to accept large bounties in order to fight for a cause that she doesn't care much about. This however, does not make Mercurial less keen on fighting and winning as her battle record and pride is what truly matters for her.
She was once hired to lead an attack against Asunción, the capital of Paraguay, but she wasn't the leader and the ignorant knights she had no jurisdiction over control disobeyed her strategy and chose to listen to their own leader. Pissed off, Mercurial abandoned the fight and withdrew her forces, making the remaining army suffer a miserable defeat at the hands of the Paraguay's best batallion, with T-Viq as their leader.
That was and is to this day the only time Mercurial has abandoned a battle and since picks her allies most carefully and only with the agreement that she has the final say in the events of the battle.

Mercurial's heavy duty and bulletproof armor provides incredibly good protection. Her unmatched cuirass is both extremely durable, but also as lightweight as possible, giving her rare control over her movements and freedom of combat, allowing her to move and strike with swiftness, unmatched for another heavily armored unit.
The Shield of Ascension's sizes provide additional area protection, while the Sword of Ascension is a magic-imbued blade that can be used to cause shockwaves through the Earth if mastered effectively. To avoid being recognized by enemies, she has a unique helmet and can hood herself additionally with her armor, making her face almost impossible to recognize amidst battles.
