(Age: 57)
From minor lord to desert sovereign, Mitera Sehashi rose not through force of arms, but through the sheer gravity of presence and intellect. Once a nobody in the shadow of the Sand Sea’s endless dunes, she walked into three desert citadels simultaneously and walked out a high lord, leaving every incumbent ruler willingly surrendering wealth, oases, and power just to touch her hand.
She is now the Keeper of the Desert Citadels, the master of Arnot’s trade routes and water supply, and the architect of the empire’s desert lifeblood. Where others rely on armies or intimidation, Mitera wields knowledge, strategy, and perception as her weapons. Yet she is no scholar who hides behind numbers—her mastery of combat, navigation, and biological insight makes her a living storm in the desert, armed with whips as tall as herself and the instincts of a predator.
Build: Towering at 20 feet, Mitera is a giant even among the giant-blooded. Her form is lithe yet impossibly strong, every movement precise and commanding.
Face: A visage sculpted into perfection, regarded as the standard of beauty across Arnot and the lands of Paradise. Golden-brown eyes gleam with intellect and calculation, able to read intent before words are spoken.
Attire: Flowing silks, desert leathers, and bronze adornments mark her status. Her whips—some as long as her height—coil at her side, each crafted from reinforced kraken hide and infused with centuries of combat innovation.
Master of Observation: Mitera studies people the way others study maps. She understands biology, psychology, and desire to godlike precision, predicting behavior and bending wills without coercion.
Calculated Strategist: While others rely on brute force, she moves armies, fleets, and trade networks as though playing chess on a continental scale. Her influence is subtle, yet absolute.
Navigator of Both Sea and Mind: Mitera’s understanding of the human mind mirrors her ability to navigate Paradise’s treacherous seas. She can track a fleeing enemy or a hidden caravan with equal mastery.
Devoted to Will: When Ephram found her, she recognized a will that eclipsed even her own. She joined his crew and never left, her loyalty unspoken but absolute—he encompasses her like a force field of destiny.
Controller of Desert Lifeblood: Water, trade, and oases fall under her management. Cities survive or perish at her discretion, yet she distributes resources with precision rather than caprice.
Architect of Trade: While pirates previously sailed Paradise randomly, Mitera engineered the first organized trade routes, converting the chaos of the seas into profit, intelligence, and influence.
Battlefield Tactician: Preferring whips as weapons, she can wield them like serpentine extensions of her own body, capable of striking multiple opponents across vast distances. Her presence alone commands loyalty and caution.
