=== Background ===
When Watches-The-Fall was a girl, she was fascinated with learning everything she could.  Never mind boys, never mind getting drunk at the Harvest Festival, she would always find some way to go off and examine something new, or reread one of the local village's few books.  Even when she was dragged into the town's celebrations or the mundane work of crafting or gathering food, she only took part halfheartedly.  "We live in such a fantastic world", she thought to herself, "Why should I do such boring things?".  While the elders of her town debated on what to do with her, however, this came to bite her.  She had found a new book, one with a cover made of some shifting metal, and tried to read it aloud.  A dark power came from the book, and she struggled within her own mind, but her mouth would not stop speaking the words of beckoning!  Fair Folk from the bordermarches nearby flew to answer the call, and she stood in response, armed only with a poorly-crafted dagger and her knowledge.  It was not nearly enough to hold back the goblins that ransacked her town, even knowing what they were and how they would attack, but she refused to give in to them, fighting every step of the way beyond what a mortal body should be able to take.<br/>

Luckily, another force worked for her that day, a man that she felt an instinctive bond with.  He dressed himself in the garments of death, claiming no name on that day but saying that he would help her again.  Moments after he fled from view, she was taken in by the Silver Pact and told of her new nature as a Lunar.  She carried the secret of why the goblins attacked her town as her personal shame, and threw herself into their training, never giving herself a moment's celebration in their sight.  She was startled, however, when on her way through the Wyld after being made to fight against Fey, the dark man appeared again.  He told her then that he and she were bound in their soul, and that he would defy even his dark masters for her, giving his name as Chases The Dark Grace and offering her a set of soulsteel armlets and anklebands to protect her no matter what the future may bring.  From that day, she learned as much from him as she did from her Lunar friends and teachers.


=== Appearance ===
Watches is a very thin woman, to the point that many other Lunars consider her skin-and-bones.  She dresses skimpily, her outfits designed by her friends to use as little fabric as possible.  She has a pale complexion, and freckles dot her cheeks, their red matching the fiery color of her hair.  Outside of the necessary Lunar gatherings (and her clandestine meetings with her Abyssal friend) she is very rarely seen without a book of some kind, though she always listens to what's being said to her even as she reads.
