I like this one. Optimized yet interesting.
Mr. Death:
Lian Xing
Not all of the Wardens attacked in the decimation at the Congo hospital were killed. Unbeknownst to the White Council at large, a particularly devious Red Court noble captured and infected a handful of the Wardens. They either escaped, or were killed, before they could fully turn, and the survivors now use their new abilities in the war effort.

I'd Give My Life For the Council (She's intensely loyal to the Council and the other Wardens)
Must Maintain Discipline (Sometimes she has trouble keeping her cool, despite her intense training)
Subtle and Precise Power (She favors precision attacks based on her high Discipline score, but can't throw a whole lot of power around without her Foci)
"Do You Still Trust Me?" (Some on the White Council--even other wardens--may think it simply a liability to let any wizard live with the taint of the Red Court in them)

----
EDITS: Replaced Craftsmanship with Intimidation, and reworded Duplicio a little bit. And reassigned the beads to Air defensive power; had misremembered how it was on her sheet.
Sanctaphrax:
Very nice. There are a couple things that I question, though:
-Why no Intimidation skill?
-How exactly does Duplicio work? Does it only block Alertness actions, or can it be used against attacks?
Mr. Death:
Well, mostly because I have a bad habit of simply forgetting about the Intimidation skill when building characters. It might take the place of Craftsmanship, though, if it's needed.
Duplicio I see as a block against Alertness that the enemy has to surpass in order to land a successful attack, similar to a veil. The way I see it working is, when she casts it, a pair of illusory doppelgangers pop out and maneuver around Lian on the battlefield, with the Alertness roll representing the enemy's ability to sort out which one's real. A failed roll means they pick the wrong target and can't attack her directly, a successful Alertness roll means they target the real deal and can act directly against her. Indirect attacks, like going 'Screw it' and filling the zone with fire or simultaneously attacking all three images via a spray attack, might work, of course.
