Minerva Cynthia Buckle

Paranoid would be the way that most people describe the number two ranked officer in the The Green Cloaks, however after 12 assassination attempts and counting it isn't really paranoid anymore is it. Minerva is the reason that there is still a Commisoner and likely the reason it's upper officers lasted as long as they did. She is a formidible woman who leads much of the Green Cloaks through her own good example but understands that it is a corrupt institution largerly at the beck and call of powerful people with money, however it doesn't mean she has to like it

"12 times, 12 we've tried to kill her 12 times and the best we have to show for it is one lousy eye?... what was that? " - former leader of the criminal orginization the Dirty Dans seconds before Minerva found him

Appearance

Minerva is a well built broad shouldererd middle aged woman with short dark hair. She is never without her dark green coat that offers her maximum protectioiin and underneath her coat she wears a specially designed layer of Great Tree Fiber and Great Tree Wood. Her other distingishing feature is the eye patch and scaring all across her face. After so many attempts on her life they were bound to get lucky eventually.

Personality

Minerva these days is constantly on edge, looking around every corner for the next threat or danger always ready to shoot first and ask questions later. She still has some hope for the city though and is still trying to do right by those in need which is incidentaly how she ended up losing her eye.

Background

Minerva grew up in the First Ring an illegitimate child of a Goldfoot hence the surname buckle which all goldfoot bastards share. Still as a relatively high ranking family she was afforded more luxuries than most and therfore was well taken care of. She grew up in this place with her father who cared for her all on his own doing everything in his power to keep the Goldfoots from exerting anykind of control beyond offering money for her well being. Of course evetually powerful people get what they want and Minerva's father was killed. It was Lucius Columbus Fleming who promised a very young Minerva that he would find the people who did this and bring them to justice, which of course he did.
It was years later they would meet again when a much older Minerva came looking for him and more importantly a job.

Relationships

Minerva has no other relationships they are far too dangerous these days but her only real friend is Lucius whom she cares for like a surrogate father.

Allegiance

Her Loyalties lie to the Green Cloaks and by some extension the Silver Council though she distrusts both in equal measure due to the corruption found within.

Abilities

Minerva has no talent with magic but she more than makes up for that with pure brute strength, Minerva is supposed to have been able to snap a man in half with her bare hands and wrestled down monsters from The Great Tree. Given the 12 assassination attempts failed so badly and in most cases with Minerva cathing or outright killing her would be assassins there may be some truth to the tales.

Equipment

Minerva carries all the standard issue Green Cloak approaved tools along with a few magicaly enhanced items she keeps secret for and she says "just such an occassion"
