"Some goddamn fool once said that flanks have got to be secure. Since then sonofabitches all over the globe have been guarding their flanks. I don't agree with that. My flanks are something for the enemy to worry about, not me. Before he finds out where my flanks are, I'll be cutting the bastard's throat."-General George S. Patton

Biography

Born a middle daughter of the Landos family, vassals to House Zorich, Leah was always a bit of a tomboy from her childhood. As she was unlikely to be called on to lead the family, she spent much of her time learning martial things, and even spent some time in the military. At 17, she was married to a minor son of the other Vassal house, Grunhaid.

With her husband, she had a few children, and spent most of her time at home, finding she enjoyed the marriage. At 25, her husband died on a hunting trip, and Leah took the loss hard. Hardening her heart, she turned her energy and attention back to the military, renewing her service and her study of military history.

At the age of 32 (in 672), Leah was serving as a General in the Queen's army when she helped bring to light the Marshal-at-the-time's misconduct. The woman was stripped of position and rank, and Leah replaced her, maintaining the position since.

Personality and Appearance

Standing a couple of inches taller than most of her gender, this woman stands about five and a half feet tall when bare foot. Dark hair is striking against her pale skin and makes the icy-blue irises of her eyes stand out all the more. Her hair is left long enough to brush across her chest and shoulder blades, the straight locks sporting just a bit of wave usually.

She looks to be in her mid thirties, with still attractive features. Thin, arched brows sit above her bright eyes, a petite nose and pink-hued lips. Her figure is lean, perhaps a bit softer than it might have been a decade ago, but she's still physically fit, with ample hips and bust.

A black gown is today's attire, the skirts reaching down towards her feet, obscuring her riding boots from view. The dress is well-fitted, displaying the woman's figure and it has short sleeves that leave most of her pale arms bare.

On the exterior, Leah is a hard woman, not one to shy away from doing what needs to be done, nor squeamish about blood or bloodshed, and she's able to fit in with a group of raucous soldiers and sailors without any effort. She's competitive, though a fair sport and not a sore loser or winner. Leah is always looking to improve herself, be it mentally or physically, learning new things and doing new things. She is devoted to her family's liege, House Zorich, and the Queen of the Isles, intent on serving the Isles well as the Queen's Marshal. The woman has her softer side however, she's just learned to not let it out very often, and learned that the hard exterior tends to be better at getting things done.
