Nokha Daughter of Merrin

Mistress Nokha

Nokha is part of a family whom have served the Witchmaster for a few generations. She is in her early thirtiees, well built and good looking. She is a powerful wizard and seer and have a wide range of leeway as an agent of the Witchmaster. She only takes order from the Witchmaster or suggestions from the commander in the force she currently are assigned too.   She have suffered from true dreaming throughout her life and is considered a seer in the society she comes from. The dreams are often blurry and it often takes work to interpret them.   A while ago her dreams have been disturbed by a common dream about a powerful evil deity being locked up in a mountain. But in the dream the Deity is released and she conquers the world and kills all living and destroy all who oppose her. In the dreams she sees The Black Tower crumble and fall. Nokha knows she needs to know more and do what she can to either make sure the deity never break frees, or how to defeat it when it does. But she also knows that if she tells this to The Witchmaster he will torture her to death for suggesting he can be defeated.

Nokha were born during a thunderstorm in the Aidne mountains. During her birth a Orc Shaman were tortured and when her first cries were heard the shaman were sacrifised. All part of a ritual to imbude her with magical powers.   She and her siblings never experienced love or caring, and throughout their childhood they learned not to trust each other as well. In early age she was shipped of to a Uncle who taught her elemental and necromantic magic. As well as many other skills she needed to survive in the cruel society.   As she became adult she were often attached to war and raiding parties and bloodied herself in the battlefield many times. During a defence of a village from raiding orcs she got fatally wounded and were rendered infertile from the wound. How she survived and what visions she have had in her sick bed, she have never talked about. Her family exiled her for her failure but she remained in the good grace of The Witchmaster. In the following years she have become a problem solver for him, and she travels through his realm doing his bidding.   Her former family have a few times tried to assassin her, and so has her other enemies and she have developed a healthy paranoia.
