Information About

Cara (sword Of Truth)





DESCRIPTION

Cara is the unofficial leader of the three Mord'Sith who guard Richard. Cara is the closest to Richard, and he comes to consider her as a member of the family. The two other Mord'Sith, Raina and Berdine, listen to Cara's commands and follow her directions.
Cara is a beautiful woman, tall, though still not as tall as Kahlan, and very muscular and powerful. She usually wears her red leather to hide the blood, for she often protects Richard from oncoming foes with her Agiel, a tool of torture. She has icy-blue eyes, and long blonde hair that she wears in the trademark braid of the Mord-Sith. She is considered to become more sensitive and caring than most Mord'Sith, and is still haunted by her fears of rats, which she connects to the death of her father, who she was forced to murder for her training. She carries great respect for Kahlan, who wears the Agiel of Denna, Richard's former Mord'Sith mistress, and calls Kahlan a sister of the Agiel.

She cares deeply for Richard as his bodyguard, and would die for him, not simply because he is the Lord Rahl, but because he is her friend and she understands and agrees with what he stands for and why he fights. This makes her to be considered one of the most loyal Mord'Sith.
