Character Profile - Adena Krieger


Once a Fennec Guild Member and most recently, a Crusader. Adena Krieger is a woman who should not be alive.Reported to have perished alongside Hertz Minton, they were only Crusader graduates who were marched to their death.

In her early life, she lived one in secluded peace, similar to that of both Tay and Allan. However, one day her father fell ill, and killed her mother. Being a Crusader himself, she discovered that his secret garden had been overrun with Hex, and he himself became an Overturned. She had overheard stories from her father and Private Kadame Viker how dangerous Overturned were, and how Crusaders were assigned to deal with the horrific place of nightmares called the Fall.

Homeless, she found refuge in the Fennec guild; cloaked marauders that often took in orphans for the purpose of stealing items and information, making children unheard and untrustworthy. Eventually, the Fennec guild contracted her with her first physical fight, but she eventually discarded them because of their selfish and distrustful ways.

Enrolling in the Crusaders, a force designed to combat evil and the Hex, she is forced to liaise with the joker of the class named Hertz Minton, who she eventually opens up to. But only so much so before it is snapped shut.

On graduation; they are sent on a mission to the Fall for first hand experience of the monsters that lurk there. Only originally with the plan that they stay near the outskirts of the nightmarish zone, officials push the students far deeper than allowed, by some purposeful misuse of power above. It is there the students die, left and right, until only Hertz and Adena remain. Trembling after seeing friends die and even attempt to kill each other, they are cornered in a ravine and meet eye to eye with a monster that was never reported before.


Above: A Crestlich - a type of Overturned clad in armour.

A creature of pitch black armour, gold and a frightening bird-like maw.

Both Adena and Hertz are unable to overwhelm the beast, and in the end, Hertz hatches a plan to jump atop the back of the creature, so that Adena may run. The plan falters, and both are wiped out. Adena wakes momentarily, to speak with her dying partner as he offers up his sword. As she clutches it, it shines brightly, and a surge of blood drenches from the sword before she blacks out.

Adena should have died, and yet somehow, the sword had protected her from death. The silver blade, once possessed in Hertz's hand had transformed into this vile, black weapon resembling the now vanished monster they had tried to slay.



The Golden Bite had prevented Adena's death somehow, but presented a new dilemma. She could no longer die. Try as she might at ending her suffering, all was for nought.

She, herself, had inherited the power of the Crestlich armour and was able to summon it at will. Something, of such vile material, no normal person could wear upon them.

What's worse, is Hertz's body could not be found. In seeking answers to her ailment, she decides to travel to Quilaski, the residing place of Riley Wrean in Meta Revelations - Ring Spirits. There, she will find a Daeva named Ankitor who is apparently the solution to all of her ills.

-----

She has a general dislike of Overturned and tends to act irrationally around them, despite appearing and talking like a fairly level headed person.

Over the course of her previous adventures, she has acquired what is known as "Battle Modes" with her armour, that is to say she can adjust the armour slightly based on Crestliches slain.

Above: Battle Mode 4; acquired from Lejatvitan, the Crestlich with a kind heart.

In Meta Revelations - Ring Spirits, Adena discovers a horrid truth about the original of her sword, the Golden Bite and where she places herself in the seat of all that lives - and why she cannot die.
