The Riven Lands

A stern-faced human woman in her forties with graying brown hair kept in a regulation military bun. Wears patched and modified military uniform with all rank insignia carefully removed, though the ghost outlines remain visible. Her left eye is a crude iron prosthetic after a shrapnel injury, giving her an intimidating asymmetrical stare. Battle scars cross her hands and forearms, and she carries herself with the unmistakable bearing of a career soldier. Her remaining brown eye burns with barely contained intensity.

Lyanna maintains strict military bearing even in criminal enterprises, believing discipline and order separate civilization from chaos. She genuinely cares for her subordinates like a commander cares for troops, ensuring they're fed, equipped, and trained. However, she expects absolute obedience and views failure as a threat to unit cohesion. Her strategic mind constantly analyzes situations for tactical advantages, and she takes pride in outmaneuvering opponents through superior planning rather than raw violence.

Daughter of a decorated general, Lyanna followed family tradition into military service, rising to captain through tactical brilliance and unwavering discipline. When political maneuvering led to her entire unit being sacrificed in a pointless border skirmish, she was court-martialed as a scapegoat for the disaster. Stripped of rank and pension, she found herself on the streets with nothing but her military training. Unable to adapt to civilian life, she began gathering other displaced veterans, treating street crime like military campaigns. Her gang operates with military precision, viewing themselves as soldiers in an undeclared war against a society that abandoned them.
