Warlord

"The military leader of the largest Arcanic faction. Also known as the Sword of the East, she seeks the mysterious weapon that destroyed the city of Constantine and ended the Great War. The Warlord is certain that this weapon will save the Arcanic race from its human enemies."

Known as the Sword of the East, the Warlord is a relentless military leader of the Dawn Court. She is obsessed with Moriko Halfwolf's secrets, believing her older twin sister hides a powerful weapon that can win the upcoming war between the Arcanics and the Federation of Man. She is the aunt of Maika Halfwolf and daughter of the Queen of Wolves.

Personality
The Warlord is a driven Arcanic who will do whatever it takes to protect the Arcanics. It is said that she is a great warrior, supremely confident, and known for her legendary hatred of the humans. She carries more favor with the people of the Dawn Court, though it remains to be said about the Ancients. She has a bitter relationship with the Queen of Wolves, knowing countless Arcanics die so her mother and the other Ancients can live in relative safety and comfort. Despite her talent in warfare, her spy craft is weak––always one step behind her opponents outside of the battlefield.

The Warlord is just as ruthless and cold as Moriko. She is willing to murder children, sacrifice innocent lives, and even hurt her own family in order to pursue her agenda. Though not unreasonable, she can be ill-tempered and impulsive.

Appearance
The Warlord is a wolf Arcanic and identical in appearance with her twin sister: long, black straight hair and olive skin. However, she has scars all over her face and body and looks more Arcanic than Moriko with six black tails.

Background
The Warlord is the younger twin sister of Moriko Halfwolf and daughter of the Queen of Wolves. She was the second chosen by the Ancestrals to command the Arcanic armies of the Dawn Court. While Moriko was favored by their mother, the Warlord was favored by the court. Two years after Moriko resigned her commission and abandoned the court, the Warlord was named the Sword of the East.

The Warlord hunted her sister down, sending spies to capture her for alleged murders. At a certain point in her career, the Warlord and her army fought alongside the Dusk Court at the battle of Farfang Fjord. Despite the alliance, the Warlord sacrificed thousands of Dusk Court lives, as well as defenseless refugees, in order to save her troops from an ambush.

The Queen of Wolves managed to keep Maika Halfwolf's existence secret from the Warlord until the events known as the Massacre of Zamora.
