Magister Keriana of Dawn is quite easy to clock as an intelligent and charming womam, things quickly clear after only a brief meeting with her.

The more attentive ones may notice the ceremonial rapiers at her hip, and recognize this as being an unusual decoration for a scholar and teacher as she is.

And a wise person may realize that these rapiers aren't ceremonial at all.

And the full truth is only known to select few - especially the unfortunate ones who challenge her, and find themselves at the business end of her weapons.
For not only is she a scholar - but also an exceedingly skilled swordfighter, enhanced further by her mesmer magics.
And while she isn't one to flaunt her skills openly - you will know from the look in her eyes.
You have no chance.
