Character: Cara Mason
Series: Legend of the Seeker
Character Age: 25
Counselor Job: Torture Instructor
Canon: I think we can all sympathize with Richard Cypher. It's not everyday you save a beautiful damsel and find out you're the Legendary Seeker, destined to bring peace to the Midlands from the tyrannical rule of Darken Rahl, ruler of the warmongering D'Hara. However, he gets a nifty magic sword, finds out said damsel is actually a badass knife fighter with special powers and a wizard who spends too much time pretending to be crazy (and naked). With his RPG-style team, Richard Cypher is ready to save the world! And more damsels.

Standing in his way, is Darken Rahl's army of BDSM female fighters, the Mord'Sith. Trained at a young age to control their emotions and to torture people to the point of complete submission, Cara was every inch the perfect Mord'Sith ... until she joined forces with Richard's ragtag group of heroes. Blunt, sarcastic, with a sense of morbid humour, Cara is a highly competent person, relying solely on her own strength. And she's not the least bit concerned with conveying her harsh opinion to the populace. Yet, after spending time with other people, Cara slowly develops a small understanding towards feelings like love, affection and consideration. However, don't ever tell that to her face or she'll beat you with her magical torture stick.

Sample Post:

Let's make this perfectly clear. I don't like you at all. ... No, that sounds too nice. Actually, it's not that I dislike you, it's simply that I can't be bothered to care about a bunch of incompetent, shambling, half-baked men who can't even carry a sword without falling on it. I mean, that is just a level of pathetic I didn't know the male sex could reach, but I'm thankful you were there to correct my impressions. I could have lived my entire life thinking that there was more to them that meets the eye. Now, I know simply meeting the eye is difficult enough when you're constantly grovelling from your lack of kneecaps. Nevertheless, I was ordered to make ...something out of you lot. I'm not a miracle worker but I'll do my best to make sure you can at least grovel on your knees instead of your stomach. Isn't that magnanimous of me? I knew you'd appreciate it. I expect a great deal of effort if you want to make it to the top like my prized student did. And I know you all are undying to be just like her, aren't you? That's it, time to prove your worth.

In this unique class of torture instruction, it should be wise to remember that technique is everything. It's not enough to stab someone several times. There's a certain beauty to simply hacking off a person's limbs and watching them bleed to death. Or, my personal favourite is to tie them from their feet and leave them hanging from a tree branch as the blood rushes to their face and then leave cuts so they die slowly in agony. But you're not allowed to copy my answer. Don't be afraid to be a little creative. In fact, I wholly encourage it. After all, it seems to be the only quality you have that hasn't seeped into the ground. Unless your brains leak, in which case, just don't tell me and keep pretending. You'll survive longer that way. Or at least, you'll survive long enough not to ruin my good name. Don't be so disappointed by my low opinion of you. It's not my fault you can't be one quarter decent like my best student. But then again, she was one of a kind... spectacular backrub technique as well... she simply had a way of being attuned to one's body. While you lot barely survive being attuned to a ligament. I suppose I should just resign myself to the fact that some people are born geniuses and others are just... born.

Now, onto the next step. It's one thing to physically torture your enemies, but if you're smart, you won't even have to lift a finger. The power of suggestion after all, is more terrifying than the blade itself. So don't always resort to the stabbing and the poking. Put a little fear in them just by using your voice. You'll be surprised at the results it yields. Why, one time, I threatened a slave by telling her detailed accounts about how I'd pull out her fingernails, chop off her fingers and then feed them to my dog. He tends to have a hankering for human flesh. After that lurid tale, she was the model of obedience. In fact, my favourite student was most adept at teaching the inhabitants how to be wary of her reach, like a true Mord'Sith should.

And you all want to be just like Marcy, don't you?
