## Description

### Appearance

Torveyn wears a set of dwarven plate with runes ornamenting the sides. Fur pokes out and forms a collar around her neck. Torveyn's grey blocky face has very pronounced tusks. She also has a geometric tattoo of interlocking triangles similar to the one on her blade that covers the top left corner of her face. On her back, she has a large cylindrical black bag. Underneath her plate armor, she has some branding scars as well as a few scripture tattoos. In combat, she calls down Luxecderus which is a ghastly white greatsword.

### Personality

Torveyn is generally a more reserved member and chooses mostly to speak when spoken to. However, when she does she almost always does it with charm and a lighthearted sing song voice. She attempts to treat everyone with respect until they choose not to show it to her. She has a passion towards protecting innocents and the general population of Vienrim which has an origin in guilt of her acts with the Church of the Eight.

## Biography

### Before The Final Days of The Fifth Age

Torveyn was born in a small tribe in Wyrmscribe. Early in her childhood her village was destroyed and she was adopted by the Bershon family. As part of the Bershon family she was raised with the values of the Eight. This made the transition from her into a member of the church a very easy process. However, during her line of work there came a moment where she had a small amount of disillusionment and in order to solve this problem, Torveyn figured that she should spend time among heretics. She thought that it would help confirm her beliefs seeing what the "others" were like.

### The Final Days of The Fifth Age

Notable character moments include:

* Jumping into Asmodai's mouth
* Setting up the Zone of Truth pillow talk
* Clearing out the city of Raskburg
* Decapitating Cumulon

## Relationships

### Theron

Theron is probably the party member that Torveyn trusts the most. While he was slightly racist towards her in their initial meetings it has been long enough that she has mostly forgiven him for that and can now appreciate his whimsical nature. She has found a bond of companionship and will often seek out Theron for advice or help.

### Hiccup

Hiccup flip flops between an antagonistic goading presence about Torveyn's faith and an ally against whatever is in front of them. If they are both making fun of someone else though, Hiccup is a great companion to Torveyn. Now that she is revealed to be at least partially artificial she finds a newfound appreciation for Hiccup and his automatons.

### Xyr

Xyr and Torveyn have mostly kept their distance from one another as Torveyn can tell there is still a thick cloud of distrust in the air. Torveyn does think of Xyr as the most level headed member of the party however and does trust him to some extent.

### Kadir

Kadir and Torveyn had a sort of friendly rivalry based on the similar roles they played in combat. However, there was still disagreement on Kadir's hatred of everything arcane and Torveyn's use of her divine powers.

### Aspen

Aspen and Torveyn are often the only women in a large group of men and their is some shared understanding in that. After talking with Aspen after they jumped timelines on their journey north, she has grown much closer and feels very sorry for all that Aspen has lost. Even though she is not a mainstay of the group, Aspen is probably Torveyn's closest companion outside of Theron.
