Question. Does Edelweiss have a military? Was thinking about making my second character a military person from that country.[/s]

I'll just go ahead and post her here, you tell me what you think.

A rather tall woman, standing at a solid 5'8", she has brown hair with chocolate colored eyes. Often times, she is seen wearing her military uniform. The only time you can catch her not wearing it, is when she's bathing, sleeping, or relaxing in her manor's study.

[b]Bio:[/b]
[u][i]Personality:[/i][/u]
In social situations, on the surface she is generally pleasant. Charismatic, friendly, and amicable, she dislikes violence, speaks with a very respectful and polite tone, and will generally resolve conflicts with peace and diplomacy if she can since she dislikes violence or overly 'unneeded' acts of violence. Even then, though, if she see's someone in trouble she'll step in and help - protecting others from criminals and other such things is a vow she made when joining the military, and a vow she intends to keep.

But only on the surface.

Ask anyone who spends enough time around her, and they'll easily tell you...she is not a woman you would wish to cross or stand in her way. Despite her friendly and amicable nature, that truly only runs as far as humans are concerned. Non humans, truthfully, might as well go and die for all she cares. But of course, public opinion prevents her from stating such beliefs openly.

Not only that, she is quite the ambitious person. She aims for the position of General of the Edelweiss army, and most would be correct in assuming she'd want even more if she could ever find a way of attaining it. That is, ruling [i]all[/i] of Edelweiss herself. Hell, the entire world of Genesis of she could get her mitts on it.

She refuses to let anyone stand in the way of this ambition of hers. Any who do, she will dispose of using the fullest extent of the law possible, or even go as far as to hire the correct people to do it - so long as them being hired can't be traced back to her.

Of course, she is an honorable person who keeps her word, if she gives it. You can expect loyalty from her if she gives her word on something.

As far as work is concerned, she is a fairly serious person. She takes the military very, very, seriously and most of the others know it. Shenanigans will not be tolerated in the ranks when she is present.

And despite her hate of violence, she has been known to have...quite a few darker tendencies. Especially towards the punishing of criminals. At times...she can be over exuberant in the pursuit and punishment of them.

[i][u]Background[/u][/i]
Amelia's story isn't a tearjerker or one overly rife with conflict. Not of the emotional or violent sort, at least.

Born into a wealthy aristocratic family as the youngest of four siblings, she was often looked down on and underestimated simply due to being the last born of the family. The runt, you might say. That's not saying her parents didn't support or love her, they did. It's just that...well, they had some rather radical views of non-humans for whatever reason.

Perhaps it was just an old, archaic tradition of the Brandt family. Whatever the case, they made sure to pass their beliefs onto their children, and none believed them more so than the young Amelia. Being the runt, it was nice to think that there were other creatures who were less than she was, that she was inherently better than.

She committed herself to studying academics and marksmanship at an early age, becoming quite skilled with most forms of firearms, but preferring a small and lightweight handgun, modified to work with her magic.

When she was 18, she joined the military and quickly became disgusted with how it was run. Not to mention the non-humans in the ranks. For a sheltered, somewhat brainwashed girl such as herself, it was unthinkable. It was around this time she vowed to [i]fix[/i] that problem. Permanently.

She quickly rose through the ranks using various methods. Legal, and once or twice maybe not so legal means to get promoted quickly. Of course, doing it [i]too[/i] quickly would cause a problem. People would notice. The wrong sort of people who could foil her plans.

So now, she waits at the rank of Brigadier General. Waiting for an opportunity to take control of the highest position in the military.


[b]Likes:[/b]
Torture, Hot beverages, Order, Peace, Humans, disciplining others, the sweet deliciousness that are blueberries, diplomacy.

[b]Dislikes:[/b]
Non humans, chaos, laziness, insubordination, slackers, spicy things, direct fights, bugs.

[b]Talents/Hobbies:[/b]
-Drinking tea
-Reading
-Studying ancient ruins. (Who knows where one might find some...artifact of power?~)

[b]Alignment:[/b]
Lawful Evil, with a dash of Chaotic Evil.

[u][b]Combat[/b][/u]

[b]Magic Type:[/b]
Wind

[b]Fighting Style:[/b]
Most often, she wields her saber in her right hand, and her pistol in the other. This makes for a very deadly, and effective combination. She can force you into a sword-lock, and then shoot you in the face with a gun, for example. Most often, she employs wind magic to enhance her speed and agility, sometimes strengthening the blows of her sword.

[b]Weapon(s):[/b] 
A saber and a custom made handgun she keeps on her at all times. The handgun is modified to use regular bullets, as well as work with her wind magic to shoot small blasts of air to stun and deter opponents. Possibly even using wind to cut or lacerate if she can put enough force into it.

Also carries a riding crop. She'll gladly show you how one can put it to good...use~

[b]Weaknesses:[/b]
- Wears no armor what so ever, aside from her military uniform unless she's in the field. Then she can be seen wearing bullet-resistant armor under it.
-Long-range combat.
-Dislikes fighting, and will often attempt to talk her way out of doing so using diplomatic means, bribery, or other...'persuasive' methods.
-Big, heavily armored opponents.
-While she is indeed trained by the military, she is by no means a fighter capable of taking on a large number of opponents at once. Not without getting injured herself.

[b]Strengths:[/b]
-Excellent Tactician.
-Close to mid range fighting.
-Knows 'people'.
-Will do anything to get the job done.
-Quite loyal, if you can get her to give you her word.
