Vera AshbrookSpecies: Human
Role: NPC, Avalken of Reminisce
Notable Traits: Flight, shield magic, artillery expertise
Vera's the kind of character you either find endearing or exhausting—there's no real middle ground. She's sharp as they come, picks up on details most NPCs miss, but she'll deliver her observations in this flat, measured drawl that makes even urgent situations sound like she's reading a grocery list. Talking to her is like watching someone manually load emotional responses into a robot; she wants to connect with people, she just sounds perpetually bored while doing it.
Her attempt at humor is legendary in the community—and not in a good way. She'll pause mid-conversation and hit you with puns so aggressively unfunny that fans have literally documented the worst ones. But she keeps trying anyway, which people have warmed up to over time.

Speaking of shields, that's actually her strong suit defensively. She can conjure magical barriers that are surprisingly solid for an NPC who can't cast a single offensive spell. She makes up for this limitation by having an actual arsenal—guns, cannons, the works. It's an unusual combination that reflects her thoughtful approach to problem-solving.
She can also fly, which comes in handy during open-world exploration sequences.
