Acora

Acora was a human ranger and a member of the Defiant Legion. She was the commander of the scouts and rangers within the Defiant Legion and often travelled with her wolf Shade.

Appearance
Acora was a 5'10" human woman with pale skin and messily cut blonde hair. She wore studded leather armour and a mottled grey cloak that she used for camouflage in the Grey Valley.

Personality
Acora was serious and quiet. She respects Issam Shieldsong as the commander of the Defiant Legion. From Opus' account of the taking of The Six, Acora is shown to have a sadistic side, beating Opus to within an inch of his life.

Her alignment was Neutral Evil.

Grey Frontier
Acora was first encountered by the Sterling Rams at the Defiant Legion's base in an abandoned fortress, reporting to Issam Shieldsong, alongside Shade.

Issam was then told by Oloric Silveraxe that the Sterling Rams had no interest in joining the Defiant Legion and in response he told Acora that she would need to "Mark the Border". She left the fortress, followed closely by the Sterling Rams.

It was later uncovered that Acora was the one who carried the message to Shanna and her troops to kill and crucify "The Six". When Dogren and Korrin attempted to rescue the kidnapped people, Acora sent Shade to kill Dogren. She then brutally beat and tied up Opus while Shanna and the other soldiers crucified the other members of the "The Six".

Acora fought the Sterling Rams alongside her scouts and Shade. However, she was defeated by them, with Karr killing Shade and Acora being knocked out. She was taken back to Yana where she was later interrogated by the Sterling Rams and Music. She offered some simple information about the Defiant Legion before taunting the group, making them doubt the other residents of Yana as well as one another. Due to her words, Echthra openly questioned Crieff about Katie's loyalty in front of Acora and she provoked Music by bringing up Opus. The Sterling Rams then left Acora, with Tred remaining for a moment to attempt to understand the woman, but finding no remorse or regrets.

Late that night, Crieff and Music returned to Acora's cell and, once Crieff cast Silence to muffle what was happening, Music drew her guns, shooting 6 bullets into Acora's chest, each shot emphasised by a name from "The Six". While Crieff kept her alive using healing spells, Music ended Acora's life by blowing her head off using her Hand Cannon, emphasising the kill by saying Opus' name.
