A graduate of [[Krull]]'s own college of wizards, and in command of the flying disc that collects [[Rincewind]] and [[Twoflower]] from the custody of [[Tethys]] the sea-troll.  She is approximatly 15 years old with exceptionally dark skin (near black). She is a 5th level wizard and [[Hydrophobe]].

She was very worried when she had to capture Rincewind and Twoflower, despite being armed with [[Ajandurah's Wand of Utter Negativity]]

“Your effected manner of craven cowardice does not fool me Rincewind.  I know you to be a wizard of great power and cunning!”

A strange thing to say, and Rincewind certainly though so.  But considering how Rincewind had already rescued Twoflower from the combined Thieves, Merchants and Assassins of Ankh-Morpork, defeated the Old Dark God [[Bel-Shamharoth]] and escaped the dragons of the [[Wyrmberg]], then perhaps her concern was very sensible.  

Evidently the Krull college of wizards has got the plumbing problem sorted out which prevents [[Unseen University]] from recruiting female wizards, as women magic-users are commonplace in Krull. (Either that, or witches are unknown in Krull, or Esk would have been better off applying for membership of this wizarding school!)
