Miranda

Sworn Halberd

Stats

Miranda, while not adept at magic or swordsmanship like her kin, learned to wield the halberd to avoid being a burden on the battlefield. For her, a tactician should never rely solely on others for protection, otherwise, it would make them more susceptible to being captured. As the heart of the troops, she'd rather die fighting than stoop to surrendering.

Upon entering adulthood, every Elf would undergo standard weapon training. However, unlike her fellow Elves, Miranda chose a different path. Instead of honing her magic and archery skills, she delved into various classics and studied all kinds of war tactics. Her intelligence, diligence, and the Elves' long lifespan all make her an exceptional military strategist. She has mastered methods of warfare in various terrains and battle formations of different ages. She can also effortlessly recall any of the classic wars of all time. While the Elves live long, their population is sparse. Only the perfect tactics can minimize their losses in war, and that is exactly why Miranda chose to become a military strategist. With excellent foresight, she can even plan her moves a hundred steps ahead in a chess game. In ordinary times, Miranda may appear as gentle, graceful, and well-mannered, however, once on the battlefield, her astute and decisive side would instantly come to light. "The next move will be the key to victory."
