Pimenta

The Rose Knight

Hero · ID Hero_22 · Recruited by drafting · Poison, Stall

“If they want you, they'll have to go through me.”

Lore

Current work
She's the guardian who plants herself in front of her people to protect them. The poison spreads from her, buying everyone the time they need. She met Sal on the Gaia forum, trading notes, and after six months of bickering they noticed they were writing love letters. Their shared goal, once the crisis ends: a cottage with a rose garden.

Motivation
She and Sal want one thing answered: does your guild have a real chance of ending this? Gaia takes fewer contracts than the big names, and at this rate the cottage stays a long way off. Gaia is family, so they'll never fully leave. But move the clock forward, and they're with you.
