How does your character deal with killing?
Eiran avoids actually needing to take lives as much as she physically can, sometimes even to her detriment. She understands the idea of killing being necessary (and her religious beliefs centering so heavily on ideas of death and life after death lessens the sting somewhat), but has difficulty with even the idea of taking an active role in things. She has no problem with combat, even at this point finding battles more entertaining and exciting than anything, but still balks at the idea of striking a final and decisive blow.
How did your character feel after her first kill?
For Eiran, her first kill had depressingly little fanfare. Just her, on the brink of death; a hostile stranger, similarly wounded; and a knife taken from the latter. She sunk in the knife, watched the light in his eyes fade, and only realised what she had done hours later, in a sudden wave of horror and dread.
Does your character mull over it later on?
Eiran's first and only kill haunts her to a far greater degree than she's willing to admit or display. In quiet moments of contemplation she finds herself wondering what else she could have done, or how things would be different if she had died instead. Most inexplicably of all (to her at least), she finds herself shedding tears in mourning of the man who had tried to kill her in some desperate attempt to loot a few coins.
