Character History: Kelleen was always a quiet girl, quite unlike her brothers. The youngest sibling of eight, she was the only girl with seven brothers. Her father was a middling merchant dealing mostly in fur trading in Arafel. Her mother was a kind, beautiful woman who cared for the home and her children. Kelleen was the jewel of her father’s eye, lavished with attention from the entire family.

 

Her four eldest brothers, Jon, Baen, Jasten, and Mikel were killed during two different skirmishes along the Blight border when she was only six years old. Baen left a wife and child behind as well. His wife went mad with grief, abandoned her son to her sister’s family, and went searching for vengeance in the Blight never to return. Kelleen’s mother died when she was eleven years old. She died of a sudden illness because there was no Aes Sedai in the area to Heal her. Her father was left devastated and died shortly after from what Kelleen knew was overwhelming grief over her mother. Three of her other brothers died not long after, bringing the belief that a curse had been placed on her family. She lost Jak and Alwin when she was thirteen; they were attacked by a bear while out hunting for fur. Men were sent out to find them and brought back only their swords.

 

Left in the care of her nineteen-year-old brother Jurin, she spent most of her time reading all of the books she could find. She was determined to have the knowledge necessary to destroy the Shadowspawn that had killed most of her family. She would never be caught off guard, she WOULD survive.

 

Against her brother’s wishes she spent a good deal of time watching soldiers and guards practicing the sword. They thought it amusing such a pretty girl would want to watch them, but she was learning from it and practicing when she knew no one could see. She was far from being a Blade master, but she was not defenseless either.

 

Jurin died in a Trolloc raid three years later when she was sixteen. He told her the town needed him and was taken down by a Trolloc’s barbed arrows. Kelleen was now the last of her family and owner of their estate. She had no experience in fur trading, nor any other real skill or talent so the money went fast. Within four months she was forced to sell the estate. Left with nothing and no one, she took half of the coin left to her, and went to a family friend who worked as a silversmith. He made her nine silver medallions with the faces of each member of her family engraved into them.

 

With no other options left to her, she went south in search of Tar Valon. Throughout the years she had envied the Aes Sedai in books with their fanciful tales and wondrous powers. Death did not touch them; they doled out death to the Shadowspawn. She knew it was her only hope, she had to try...

looks good to me, as long as she realises that sword-skills fade away as soon as she's in the MoN's office ;)
