// Particularly strong NPC's would cause problems for her, but she tends to fight anyone at their own level, rather than her own, largely because she doesn't actually like to hurt other people, given her primary focus most of the time as a healer and protector. Â She can and will break her personal vow against the particularly wicked, however. Â She knows a lot of magic, but her strength comes from her spell combinations, and the raw physical power generated from tweaking and infusing her body with large amounts of aether. Â She's a battery, and that translates into her muscles and body at a very base level, giving her the ability to generate enough force to punch through steel. Â She works more at holding back her strength than letting it loose. Â She's most deadly when paired with her husband, however, and the two work well together. Â She's not bad with a sword, but she's best without weapons at all.

// He has had a lot of practice with weapons, being well into his seventies as an Elezen. Â He's got a fair hand with magic, and is good with twin blades (rogue, but more duelist-y), and has been in a number of skirmishes over the years. Â He's got more strength with one than he does the other, but he has his weaknesses as well.

//Â She's an Ishgardian dragoon, a heretic hunter like her partner, and is best suited in pursuit of a foe. Â She's obviously stronger against foes where she can utilize her spear skills, but is abysmal at range, and unless there's enough room for her to take advantage of her strength, speed, and jumps, she's going to be sorely outmatched. Â Mages give her no end of fits unless she can close the distance fast, and while her armor is good against a gun to a point, she's obviously got her weak spots.

// She's a well rounded individual when it comes to combat and skills, has no skill with aether outside of what little physical energy she uses for her ninja abilities, and works best with her partner. Â While she can handle a number of fights one-on-one, she's more used to working in a team and having someone at her back to rely on. Â She's good with mudra shaping, and has a good chi pool. Â She's a Xaela that's been operating under a glamoured disguise (and her name will change accordingly once we have an idea of naming conventions).

// She's a fair hand with a pair of blades, and knows how to use them.  She's got some aetheric abilities due to her unique background and origin, but most of those are non-combat skills, and wouldn't be useful at all.  Physically, she's tough, in part because of her size and build, but also because she's had time to devote to practicing her combat style.Â

// Â Just starting out and getting a grasp on fighting, she's taken up with the pugilist's guild, and wants to get stronger. Â She's not yet proven her mettle, but she's definitely trying.
