“I think I'm the only cadet in the militia who ever managed to shoot her own sergeant ... when he was behind her ... inside the barracks. ”

—Ann[1]

Ann is the carpenter and assistant cannonmaster of the Crow's Song on Lumar.[2] She had an undiagnosed case of micropsia for much of her life.[3]

Appearance and Personality

Ann is a "gangly" woman with a dart-shaped nose and short hair. She is seen wearing a vest and trousers and carrying three pistols strapped to her in various places.[4] After Tress trades Crow to the dragon Xisisrefliel, Ann gains a pair of spectacles.[3] She has a nonchalant personality, and shows a kind side when interacting with Tress.

Attributes and Abilities

Ann loves guns and is determined to learn how to shoot, but her micropsia[1], along with crippling social pressure, hinders her ability to aim (often to a hilarious extent). With the help of both her spectacles and Laggart's guidance, she is able to overcome her inability and take down Riina's Awakened golems to rescue Tress.[5]

She is a terrible cook; Fort notes that one of her dishes made the crew sick for three days.[6]

History

When she was young, Ann worked as a farm girl, raising chickens in an unknown town. The day she came of age, she enlisted in what she calls "the militia" as a cadet in the cannonade crews. After twenty-four days there, she was removed from her position due to shooting her own sergeant, who was in the barracks behind her at the time. Things like that started happening more and more when Ann shot guns, leading her to believe she was "cursed,"[1] and increasing the pressure for her when shooting, which led to more mistakes.[5] She mentions that she has sailed both the Rose and Sapphire seas, but it's unclear whether that was with the Crow's Song or not.[7]

Eventually, she ended up signing up as the carpenter of the Crow's Song to avoid being drafted into the king's army,[8] and when the old assistant cannonmaster died, she volunteered for the role. Later, in contrast with Fort, Ann doesn't like how they ended up sinking the Oot's Dream, but reasons that being deadrunners is "better than getting conscripted."
