She's reckless and a little bit insane - she'd burn the whole country down if she could.

[CW: Side Character Death / Violence]

Val Scorchweaver is the Ascendancy’s ultimate weapon. So powerful that she's given free reign, she's never cared for the Wingfell Empire's laws and doctrine. Obsessed with Empress Mistra, who knows exactly how to keep her loyal. Val is feared by all - capable of burning men to ash by just willing it so.
Val is reckless, immature, and impulsive - she grew up as the most spoiled Ascended-in-training by far, receiving lots of personal attention from the Empress.

Gifted children in the Ascendancy were taken from their families to be raised and trained as elite Wingfell soldiers - known as The Ascended. They receive new names based on their personalities and abilities.
On its west border was a defensive alliance of countries - monarchies, republics and democracies alike, known as The Coalition, banded together to fend off the Ascendancy. They're currently in a war, which was started by the Ascendancy.
The opener centers around this conflict - Val is ordered to take out a border fort, but gets carried away - can you keep her leashed from now on?
Once again, it's an open start. For this one, I'd say it's probably more fun (and makes the most sense) if you make your character a fellow Ascended! You can think of any p
