The dwarf Veil commanded Brightshore’s defensive garrison and worked with the Arbiter to train the local guards during the period of the First Council. She joined Orrin and Jacinta's company shortly after they escaped from Vessar and was previously a high-ranking officer in a mercenary force. She was known to be a firm but fair commanding officer, and generous with her coin. She could commonly be found in one of the taverns in the Crossroads District when she was not in her office or apartments.

Veil was never without her twin shortswords if she could help it, and had curly brown hair which she cut short to keep it out of the way. She was known to be charming and surprisingly graceful.

During the Troubles in the Tower, Veil went to aid her fellow adventurers-turned-councilmembers. A Mimic trap consumed her while heroic adventurers were not able to escape the wild magic that prevented them from helping. Although she has no family of her own, the twin blades she got from Jacinta pass on the legacy of being Marco's caretaker.
