Sabina Trallia
Countess; Commander (a.k.a. The Wall Unbroken)
Physical Description
General Physical Condition
Countess Sabina Trallia stands at 5'10", her frame lean but hardened—a soldier’s build forged by decades of endurance, not vanity. Her sun-bronzed skin speaks of long years beneath wind and steel skies, the kind of tone not from leisure, but from command drills and coastal marches. Her emerald green eyes are sharp and unblinking, like polished wardglass — piercing, analytical, and known to still a room without a word. When she gazes upon you, it is as if measuring not your face, but your integrity.
Her presence is clean and exacting. She wears androgynous battle-robes of dark gray and ward-blue, tailored close for motion but devoid of ornament—every stitch functional, every hem resistant to flame and blade. A mantle of reinforced sigilcloth rests over her shoulders, clasped at the throat by a single seal-stone etched with her house’s crest: a tower split by lightning. Her dark hair is bound tightly at the nape, streaked with iron-gray, and never loose. She does not wear jewelry—her only adornment is the oath-band on her right forearm, its runes faintly glowing when she speaks commands aloud.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Sabina Trallia was born in 1963 to a line of garrison tacticians stationed along the Southmarch ridge, where her early life was shaped by cold winds, drill chants, and warding theory. Enlisted into the Custodes Aegis at sixteen, she rose quickly through merit, known for her unflinching composure and unmatched skill in shield formations. During the Storm Rebellion, she led the defense of the Line of Three Gates with half a cohort, holding it against rebel stormcallers for seven days until relief arrived. Her actions earned her the epithet “The Wall Unbroken” and the personal attention of Duke Virelius.
Following the rebellion, she was elevated to Countess and granted rule of Aurelia Invicta — making her the first in her bloodline to hold noble title. She restructured the town’s defense lattice, codified the Oath of the Bastion, and personally oversaw the completion of the Sanctum Vigilis. Despite her elevation, she never abandoned the discipline of her roots, maintaining a garrisoned lifestyle and spurning courtly indulgences. Her rule is marked by lawful rigor, infrastructural perfection, and the unwavering loyalty of her shieldmages.
