Personality: Orkarel is a loner, interested only in perfecting her fighting and magic skills through challenge and combat, and is concerned with proving herself a superior combatant to anyone she meets. As such, she doesn’t mind giving or getting a thrashing. Something of a thrill-seeker, she disdains monetary treasure for anything that improves her combat or casting abilities. Unusually for someone of High Elven birth, she is polite and respectful to humans, and has an unusually deep-seated fondness for half-elves.
Appearance: Hax is physically very attractive, but as she is more concerned about combat and being “wired tight”, her beauty tends not to show. She has dark eyes and hair, which is usually worn loose, and prefers dark colours for concealment; her chainmail and sword are blued to this end. Her only vanity is a series of crescent moon tattoos, done in very expensive indigo ink, one commemorating each "great battle" she has fought. She has more than fifty pairs of such tattoos, but the only (normally) visible ones are the four around her left eye (two above and two below). After the fight at the abandoned farm, she added one more pair on her left thigh, circling the scar left by Gwen's arrow.
