Age: 22
Height: 5'6''
Weight: Approximately 150
Frame: Mina has a fairly balanced body. Her shoulders are slightly broad for a woman, thanks to the training she has undergone for the better part of her life. Her weight is mostly muscle, but a thin layer of fat also lines her body, with rounded hips and strong arms and legs.
Hair: Jet black, kept pulled back into a simple ponytail, save for her short bangs.
Skin: Pale, especially since she is rarely seen in anything other than robes or armor.
Eyes: Dark brown, and piercing, especially when she is angry.
Facial structure: Mina has high cheekbones, average-sized lips and mouth, and a improminent chin.
Clothing/Armor: Mina's standard outfit for when she is in the line of duty as a novice Paladin consists of a light blue short-sleaved tunic, over which she wears a very light breast plate. She wears shoulder pauldrons that match her tunic's color, but the rest of her armor is a glossy light grey. Her other armor items are two long gauntlets that cover her hands and all of her forearms and elbows. On her feet, she wears a pair of steel-toed leather boots, which connect to plated leg armor that go up beneath the skirt of her tunic(which ends at mid thigh). Her outfit allows mobility in combat, but also protects her body and modesty. The main embellishing articles of clothing she wears is a white mantle cloth that hangs down in front of her breastplate, emblazoned with a black cross on a white shield, with a black grain of wheat occupying one of the four sections in the shield; the insignia of the Eyrel Paladin Order. She also has a short white cape that runs down to her lower back, slightly longer than the short mantle cloth, and she wears a simple steel circlet on her head.
History: Mina Gottenkrieger does not know her original name, nor does anyone else. During the last battle of the Hunt for Xhile, Mina's mother was killed while under posession of the Demon of Lonliness, Xhile. It was brief, as she was killed by the enraged and zealous Paladin from Eyrel, Sir Manfred von Gottenkrieger.
After Xhile had been defeated and sent back to the pits of Hell, Sir Manfred found Mina laying in swaddling cloth, crying loudly where her mother had dropped her in her posession. Wracked with grief for the child and his own wreckless and terrible sin, the Paladin returned to Eyrel and took the child for his own, since no father could be located.
In the memory of his dearly missed late fiance, Sathria Com, Sir Manfred raised the girl to be a Holy Warrior, like he and his departed true love had been. She studied the Bible, combat against flesh, and combat against spirit, and learned quickly. In little time, she had grown to match Manfred's zeal for God and country, but was also wise and good-natured, as if she were truly Sathria's daughter. Or that is how Manfred preferred to think of it.
By her 17th birthday, Mina Gottenkrieger had become a full-fledged and promising Paladin, with the Order being the only life she really knew. Like her adopted father, Mina was a law-enforcing machine.
Personality: Mina Gottenkrieger bears many similarities to her adopted father and his would-be wife. She is fervent and passionate like Manfred, but is naturally wise and knowing, as Sathria had been(since he knew it could not have been from anything he had taught her, Manfred assumes that her biological mother had given her those traits). She finds peace only in the Lord and in an orderly and safe land. Sadly, the latter is not so common in her adopted homeland in recent days. She lives to and by upholding the laws of the Church and of the King, and service to her country and family in Christ come first in her list of priorities.
Aside from the line of duty, Mina is fairly sarcastic and witty. She enjoys having a good time, and is notorious for being informal, save for when she is angered and about to dispense some righteous fury on those who break the law and oppress the weak. She was raised on Chivalry and God, and only breaks these codes in her times of ill temper. While not so much of a short-fuse as Manfred, she is known for being aggressive once motivated.
Her fighting style with her Jian sword is graceful and fluid, but also relies heavily on martial arts; this, of course, is aided by the full armor on her arms and legs. She is has ended many a disturbance by blocking an ill-doer's blade with her own and then sending him straight to the local barber(in medieval times, for those who don't know, barbers were more like wandering doctors than hair stylists. They did your teeth, scrapes and cuts, home remedies for your ailments, AND could probably give you a haircut. Quality, I am not sure of, though.). When she feels more like inflicitng pain, or is just greatly angered, Mina is wont to put her sword away and go in with foot and fist, fighting like one would expect a violent bar-fly to. IT reflects her personality, in the fact that she often is somewhat refined, but can become frighteningly barbaric when pushed over the edge.
Mina loves her adopted father, and he her. He is a rolemodel to her, which he is proud of... but not so much in a few cases, such as his tendency to let fly a coarse word in extremely frustrating situations, or his violent temper; thankfully, not so bad in Mina as it is in him. Mina admires the woman, the love of his life, Sathria, that Manfred always spoke of to her, and also looked to her in a rolemodel type way. But having never known Sathria, she is not as big an influence as Manfred or any of the other adults brought into her life, such as the Russian demon-slayer and best friend of Manfred, Gabrial Milokovich, or her adopted grandparents: Captain Joseph Wolf, and his Germanic Barbarian wife, Elsa.
