Author: Sabine Dulmare
Subject: .the.liars.tale.

Christening: Sabine Dulmare, aka Griff.
Chapters: 20
Relation: bitch..guess that means female.
Barcode: she's of a medium height, about 5'6"..she has straight blond hair streaked black that hangs just past her shoulders..dragon eyes, meaning they change color depending upon mood, albeit they are usually a storming grey, deathly calm as if before a storm..she's fairly muscular, for a femme, though by no means is she bulky..lithe..slim..cunning and cold.
Shelf: Noble.
Occupation: Weapon..the term is derived from the book Green Rider by Kristen Britain.. Weapons are also known as blackbands, but they are called weapons because even without a weapon of some sort they are still considered deadly with their knowledge of refined fighting skills. Her weapon of choice is twin curved scimitars crafted of the finest silver/iron..the grips are made of worked mole skin with wire wrapped about hilt for grip. the moleskin has had strips/holes punched into it for the sweat to drain as to not effect grip..she carries an assortment of weapons upon her persona besides the scimitars such as daggers, darts, and a crossbow and bolts.
Portrait:

[don't mind elf ears..I just liked picture because it captures her look almost perfectly..]
Story: Sabine was born upon the island of Cor under the roof of one of the kingdoms most renowned family. Being born to the Dulmare house, she was naturally rich and spoiled..albeit she did not spend her time primping with dress' and ribbons..under the influence of two older brothers and one younger, she became something of a tomboy. For such she didnt have many friends, only her brothers, whom she played with whenever she could..so while other girls were out playing with dolls..she was out in the stables or mews, or playing chess or practicing swordsplay with her brothers..When the weaponsmaster of the city took on Sabine and her younger brother, Oden for basic weapons training that she woould know how to properly defend herself if ever assualted..The old Weaponmaster, Thom was amazed at the ease and speed in which she picked up most everything she was taught, and recomended her to study at Saurneth Academy..the academy where all Blackbands study and undergo their training..well, Sabine father was reluctant at first, her being his only daughter, and the mother was even more resistant to the idea..but upon Sabine's enthusiasm and persistance, they both consented and bid farewell to their daughter, not knowing they would never see her again.. At Saurneth, Sabine flourished, mastering most each weapon with flawless ease...she was what some would call a natural..she turned the most akward drills and exercises into an awe-inspiring dance..she was one of the few that could do such, and those few were nicknamed Dancers, but only the students and instructors of the academy called them such..there was one other, Skaroe that was also considered a dancer, although her skill was with the staff instead of the sword..but thats a different story..so, during her years of study at Saurneth, Sabine aquired the nickname Griffen, Griff for short..the reasons for this are untold though..now, the Blackbands and apprentices to the Blackbands were not allowed to practice magic, but one day while out hunting with her hawk, Etihw and astride her mount, Halgiz, Sabine ran into an old hermit..amazed at his knowledge, Sabine snuck away whenever possible to learn the art of magic..she still retains the knowledge of the few tricks she learned, such as picking locks and purifying water..nothing that big..now, Sabine was so accustomed for everything to come easily to her, and she couldnt understand why she had to struggle at magic..now, she was rather impatient in that day and age, and tried a spell she couldnt control, consquently demolishing about a fourth of the academy..for defying the order, she was assumed as a threat to the crown, and thus exiled from Cor..once exiled, Sabine made her way into the mainland..having grown weary of her travels, she stopped in Guardia in hopes of possibly rebuilding her life..
