Background/History: Oathbreaker, called Red Horse Rider, lost everything when she broke faith with the benevolent wizard lords she had been sworn to serve, even her name. When they forbad her to seek revenge for the partner she had been soulbonded to, she renounced her oath and conjured the Sun Horse and the sword Avenger with stolen magical knowledge and forbidden rites.
Personality/Motivation: Lives for revenge. When they are all dead, will probably turn mercenary, deliberately taking the most dangerous jobs and constantly courting death.
Quote: I will ride out at dawn when the sun's in the sky, so the buzzards can see where the bodies will lie.
Powers/Tactics: Only the need to kill them all compels her to stealth and guile, picking them off one by one when she'd rather charge them en masse. Perhaps her mysterious mount is responsible for the ability to come and go at will without leaving tracks or being spotted.
Campaign Use: As an NPC, she may enlist the PCs to help her. Or if they are associated with the group she hunts, or just standing in the way, she will have no compunctions about trying to kill them. Once that mission is fulfilled, she will make a very moody, angry, and reckless warrior for hire.
Appearance: The song Temper of Revenge is by Julia Ecklar. The character sheet is by Lucius Alexander, copyright Palindromedary Enterprises.
