Serrissa is the second of the consorts found by Shaedan. You first met her in the Temple of Haelyn in the small town of Casiere in Fairfield, Roesone. She accompanied you as you made your way towards Aerele, and you two spent many hours debating the virtues of Haelyn as opposed to those of Draco. The only thing you seemed to agree about was that you didn’t agree about anything else. It was quite some time before the mark was revealed to you, and during those days you had no idea that there would be many marked women, and did not actively look for them.

Serrissa is an extremely attractive woman, or at least should would be is she had not looked so dammed stern all the time. Her long honey-blonde hair is tightly bound and often covered under a helmet. Her strong cheekbones, full mouth and finely chiselled nose would be stunning if some effort was made, but now her face is only forbidding. She has a beautiful feminine figure despite being incredibly fit, but who can tell when she is always wearing armour? Of course, Shaedan occasionally gets to see the woman beneath, so he has learned to appreciate that her beauty is more than just skin deep.

Her manners and way of speaking are equally stern; she always blunt and to the point. She does not intend to offend or antagonize, but she believes that the truth must always be spoken and that everything should be direct and to the point. Despite signs to the contrary she has a well-developed sense of humour, which is centred on her not inconsiderable self-insight.

Serrissa’s origins remain a mystery to all. That she has some celestial heritage is not in doubt, but tracing her lineage has proven impossible. Born to common peasant parents, with several quite human siblings, there is no indication whatsoever as to where her divine blood comes from. Indeed, when she was very young her village priest discovered her to be unusually pure of soul and devout to the gods, but never suspected she was more than human. Even after being inducted as a paladin her true nature remained undetected.

Serrissa is utterly dedicated to the Pillars of Haelyn and will likely only follow the will of the Dragon as long as his goals coincide with those of the Allfather. So far this doesn’t seem to be any problem, and you are confident that she would not hurt the Dragonholds in any way, even if she is sometimes somewhat reluctant in her service.

Lady Serrissa doesn’t really have any friends among the other consorts, and usually seeks her companions outside the palace. She is very popular among the templars, who for some reason doesn’t end up debating the finer points of religion with her. She is the one of the Consorts Shaedan usually prefers to send if there is any troubleshooting or arm-twisting that needs to be done.

Capabilities: Serrissa is a holy warrior without peer, unflinchingly upholding the Pillars of Haelyn. The holy powers granted to her makes her a terror for all Shadowspawn, traitors or criminals. She is quite clever and insightful as well, gifted with considerable powers of reason and intuition, which may come as a surprise to many. Her social skills are not quite her best feature – but this is more a result of choice than inability.
