I may look hot, but I'm still one of the bad guys. And I'll exterminate anyone who gets in my way - good or bad. Now that a ruthless Air elemental has double-crossed me and killed my handler, I'm out for revenge. But I don't use my powers on the job unless I absolutely have to. My Ice magic also comes in handy for making the occasional knife. As a Stone elemental, I can hear everything from the whispers of the gravel beneath my feet to the vibrations of the soaring Appalachian Mountains above me. I'm the most feared assassin in the South - when I'm not busy at the Pork Pit cooking up the best barbecue in Ashland. For more information, visit her Web site at Review
