Guild Mistress Shundra Soulice
Head of the Federations mighty Empath guild, Shundra Soulice has complete dominion over the psionic potential of the Techoren race. The guild mistress is the oldest serving member of The Nine and known for her cold-hearted efficiency and protectiveness of follow Empaths. Shundra was born in the age of the Empath Wars, when the psionically aware had seized many positions of great power and had turned upon each other in mad quests for yet more power, dragging the Federation into civil war. Taken as a child Shundra was to be trained as a Templar, yet before her training could be completed the Empath Joshive Jivec, sensing her psionic potential, took her and subjected her to his own methods of training. Shundra's psionic might was harnessed and she was thought to be an obedient servant in the bloodied wars, a slayer of other Empaths, Joshive's puppet reaper. Until the day Shundra had had enough, she had grown tired of the senseless killing and seen the ultimate futility of the war. In less than two years the war came to a close, various opposition leaders either killed or forced to bow to Shundra's might, the Empath Guild was reestablished, with Shundra as its Guild mistress, and that’s simply how its been ever since. Rumor has it Shundra has reached the limit that Bio-regeneration is capable of extending a life, despite still sustaining a middle aged appearance, and has began seeking a replacement for her seat among The Nine.
