Chakram Khan

Description:
In appearance, she's attractive and young (equivalent of late 20s for a human), on the taller and slimmer side for a tiefling, with a dark complexion and open shoulder-length red hair. Her horns, which look like a ram's, are marked with intricate carvings which Gepettojack recognized as unusual, being more traditional for tieflings coming from a couple of clans which trace their bloodlines back before the Cataclysm, and generally considered old-school even among them. Wears hide armor belonging to some scaled creature, with stylized mouths painted on the shoulders, and primarily wields a falchion (but carries a lot of other weapons – scimitar, scourge, sickle, etc).

Mechanically speaking, what the PCs know of her so far is that she's very quick in battle, a pretty good hitter with her falchion, can heal people with bursts of energy, can transform to a more demonic form which makes her stronger and able to regenerate, and is very adept at not being hit.
