Star Colonel Risa Pryde was a short and slim woman, not much taller than a man well known for his small size, young Star Colonel Ravill Pryde. She headed House Pryde for many years. Risa Pryde had an air of formality and was very dedicated and spent much of her energy and resources on leading House Pryde, and some even considered her to be too dedicated and hard working. Risa Pryde always spoke formally as if in a ceremony, something she was probably very accustomed to since being House Leader. Her to adhearance to strict formal talk sometimes kept other Warriors around her a little on edge.

A surprise to Jade Falcon Warriors, Risa Pryde unexpectedly died of a cardiac arrest while at her desk. Her case of death was a rare one, for few Clan Warriors die of natural causes, though her death may have come to her from years of continuous high stress workload.
