* AffablyEvil: Until you break her toys, that is... though she's affable again later. Illustrated nicely in her voice-acted letter to "[[{{Foreshadowing}} Lady F]]", in which she politely, cheerfully, casually corresponds with her fellow villain and asks to be provided with more more bodies she can stitch into horrifying monstrosities. Preferably live ones.



* MaskOfSanity: She's completely insane and about as evil, but keeps a well-mannered lid on it until one presses her BerserkButton.



* SoftSpokenSadist: She has a calm, soothing voice that [[VillainousBreakdown doesn't survive her losing her temper]].

* GameplayAndStorySegregation: Averted and played straight. The rules of the tabletop game states that only Elves or Half-Elves can be Arcane Archers, which is still a prestige class by the way. But that's going by the Third Edition Rules; the older Second Edition Ruleset didn't have the racial limitation on the prestige class that 3 and 3.5 have.
