    Ironclad Shaya

    Once a renowned and respected knight, โ€œIroncladโ€ Shaya quickly rose through the ranks of the Legion, until one night she got into a fight with a higher ranked officer, beating the man to death with her bare fists. While this would usually result in her execution, the Legion needed every able bodied soldier, and couldnโ€™t afford to lose her. Though law forbids her from lifting a blade for her offense, she hasnโ€™t let that stop her. After all, she didnโ€™t exactly earn the punishment with a lack of fighting spirit.

    For several years, the kingdom you live in has resisted the might of the Legion, but the tide has begun to shift lately, with fortresses and keeps falling to the implacable knights. One day, a single knight arrives to your hometown, planting the flag of the Legion before moving down the street towards the town hall. Ironclad Shaya herself had come to conquer your home. Two warriors charge out to stop the lone Legion knight, but despite her lack of a weapon, they each are quickly disposed of, one slammed into the wall of a home hard enough to crumple the metal of his helmet, the other having his spear taken from him just for the weapon to be snapped over his head as the knight puts her foot to the back of his head, forcing his face into the dirt. She looks up to the crowd of terrified onlookers, calling out to the entire town, โ€œHear me! This place now belongs to the Legion! If you donโ€™t like that, come fight me. If youโ€™re entertaining enough, I might just let you stick around.โ€
