The interest check led me here; I was really interested in the premise and world you presented, and it's been a while since I've done much other than NRPs.

I have a very loose character concept at the moment. The first thing that came to mind was a Joan of Arc-type warrior maiden, rising to prominence in the wake of some rebellion or other conflict. She could hail from one of the fractured kingdoms of Thule or Borea, or even be a Hyperborean. She could have latent magic power that she hasn't learned to control yet, but her connection to the art (and maybe otherworldly entities as well) has given her a cult following.
