A tall woman with REALLY FUCKING PALE skin, I mean it, she even puts Noanth to shame. Long, icy-blue hair that matches her eyes and lips, wearing a black catsuit unzipped far enough to reveal a black bikini top.

== Background ==
The entity Noanth knows as Nemissa has been around for a very long time. This goes without saying, given she's an Avatar, but there's a point to make here: She's never manifested to such a degree before, or taken such an active interest in her Mage counterpart's development. Something happened during Noanth's last incarnation to deeply trouble Nemissa, but she's not comfortable talking about what. Regardless of the reason, she's made it her job to be the Adept's full-time guide and mentor to make sure whatever went wrong last time never happens again.
