• Race: Dwarf (Shard-Afflicted)

• Age: 128

🎭 Personality & Motivations

• Core Traits:

  • Ruthlessly efficient, unflinchingly direct, and deeply pragmatic. Vetra is a master of industrial diplomacy — she can negotiate trade deals while calibrating a heat-stressed containment rune.

  • Speaks with a deliberate, molten cadence; rarely smiles, but commands respect.

• Flaws & Secrets:

  • Secretly afflicted by an echo-linked condition caused by early exposure to unstable Resonant alloys. She stabilizes herself daily using an arcano-mechanical bracer of her own design.

  • Distrusts much of the Ethereal Academy, believing their planar experiments lack the grounded accountability Myzreth must uphold.

  • Holds a locked schematic labeled Project Underspire, which references an uncompleted Resonance pipeline beneath the Republic.

• What Do They Want?

  • To ensure Begoestia’s survival by keeping its industries stable, contained, and well-funded.

  • To push Myzreth’s technological edge forward — but only under her watchful, flame-tempered control.

📖 Backstory & Role in the Story

Vetra was born in the slag-districts during the early reconstruction period, a child of soot and survival. Apprenticed to the Alloy-Scribes at twelve, she rose through ranks by solving Resonance fractures others feared to touch. Her innovations in stabilizing spell-alloys earned her a reputation as both a genius and a risk.

When the Republic transitioned into formal governance, she was chosen by industrial consensus to represent Myzreth. Her influence helped formalize the Ember Accord, and she remains a bulwark against both magical overreach and populist instability. In the narrative, Vetra can serve as a powerful ally or a political obstacle — depending on whether your goals align with containment or revolution.

📝 Notes

• Vetra wears a multi-ringed bracer that constantly tunes her body's Resonant frequency. Tampering with it causes localized planar drift.

• Keeps a sealed personal archive titled Forged for Stability, containing political blackmail material in case of a coup.

• She’s known to vanish into the lower forges during Echo Events — some believe she communes with something below the city.
