Iron Legion's Faceless Executor

Centurion Vindicta Endmaker

More details under readmore

Born 1308 AE, 'Vindicta' as she's known now grew in fahrar being bullied due to having a cowardly gladium as parentage. Joining a warband of similarly gladium-sired cubs.

Spurred on by pure spite, Vindicta would study and train harder than many a cub. She grew strong, dangerous, even as the youngest of her warband. A very skilled member of Iron Legion who graduated at 17 years old as Legionnaire of her own Spite warband.

However, her warband siblings found themselves wanting more within a year. To the point that unbeknownst to her, they were making deals with enemies of the legions. Smuggling out goods for some extra coin.

She eventually catches wind of it, gathers evidence and confronts her soldiers. Who decide a mutiny on their legionnaire is their only choice.

Vindicta becomes a gladium that day, as the only survivor of her warband.

She brings all her evidence and her actions to her Tribune, who rather than punishing this soldier who killed her entire warband, praised her for her actions in removing traitors to the legion.

With the Tribune's aid, she changed her name to Vindicta to sever her old deceived self. Began wearing a helmet at all times to hide the face that killed her own, and was placed as a soldier of the Maker warband, taking 'Endmaker' as her name due to her skill in execution.

From there, her skill would shine so brightly, she would rather quickly ascend the ranks. In only a few years she was centurion of that very same warband, known as being ruthlessly strict to Legion laws. All the soldiers of her warband would fear ever getting on her wrong side, her mere presence kept charr in line.

To this day, only the tribunes know what Vindicta's face looks like beneath her imposing helmet. To everyone else, that mask is her face. An uncaring, emotionless face that shows no hesitation in removing any hint of betrayal in the Iron Legion.

Her pistol has spilled the blood of many a betrayer, not once has her trigger claw ever faltered. A 'perfect' Iron Legion soldier, loyal to a fault, never disobeying an order.

Truly, there probably isn't a part of her old self left. She's a weapon for the Legions to use now. Cold, merciless, and immovable.

I'm wondering: Does Vindicta has any friends or people that are very important to her? Or who does she like to spend time with? Or is she a loner?

If she has no friends, I'm glady throw Wilson at her. She is her friend now. No chance to get rid of her. Wilson has decided: You are my friend now! For that little fun thing: How would Vindicta react, to her new found friend?

Given the mention of wilson I would assume @wilsons-journey aha

Vindicta is completely a loner, she doesn't really have a personality for people to connect to. She might have once, but that was before her first warband mutinied. From then, she's never felt any reason to care or let people care.

If Wilson decided she was her friend and followed her around, she'd probably not even act any different. Vindicta is so ice cold she'd make Valefor look like a sunny personality. Vindicta would probably react in grunts to stuff Wilson says, though Wilson best be careful if Vindicta has an order to fulfil.

Otherwise she might end up seeing Vindicta execute someone, because Vindicta doesn't care who sees her actions. All that matters to her is following her orders. She's truly less of a person and more a machine.

Despite however sunny and friendly Wilson is, nothing seems to really get through to Vindicta...

Wanted to do one of these, trying to drag up characters who have traits of what make Vindicta Endmaker herself.
