Shara of the Dancing Dead

[Shara]

Shara of the Dancing Dead physical information/appearance. race. myrian age. twenty-two date of birth. fall thirty-second, four hundred and ninety years after the valterrian sex. female Far more lithe than the average Myrian woman but with the fierce savagery of their spirits, Shara can't be mistaken for anything but them. Her face is oval with a high brow and almond eyes, framed by black hair braided with finger bones feathers. Her almond eyes are fierce and observant, a green as leafy as the tropical foliage around her jungle home. Her bark brown skin is marred by few scars and tattooed in the way of her family but it does not detract from the wild beauty of her face. Standing tall at six feet exactly and weighing a hundred and sixty-two pounds she cuts an imposing figure among most deyhan, but she fits right in with the rest of her people and seems actually rather slender compared to them. This slim figure and her natural fluid motions is a by product of her childhood as a learning dancer under the care of her aunt and mother. Shara typically wears a white shift when in the city, foregoing footwear entirely, and lets her hair loose. At formal occasions she will braid her hair and wear a shift collared with metal discs. When she dances, Shara will wear a white jackal mask symbolizing her role as After, white foot wrappings, and a light top and skirt covered by polished ivory discs. The mark of Prowess manifests as a white jackal print on her left shoulder blade. personality. Shara is blunt and to the point, often ignoring niceties to speak her mind. She is often labelled as a hothead, an instigator. Even with her quick temper and tenacious approach to challenges she can still come across as quite insightful. With that blunt approach to problems and that desire to take any argument to the training yards she often dissuaded people from approaching her. She doesn't mind this in the least, though, because she would rather observe than participate in most things Shara loves to simply move. She is restless and passionate, as shown by her personal approach to people. As a dancer, she finds herself comfortable when she has something, anything to do. She has a slightly unpredictible edge to her combat style, simply because she likes to move in different ways and try different things out, even in the midst of danger. In interpretive dance, which she does with her sister Cana, she may embellish a little more and improvise, if the moment calls for it. At other times, she moves in tandem with her sister, as After does with Before. history. Shara was born to Kitpa of the Dancing Dead along with Cana on the same day. In her personal opinion, she was born first, but because nobody in the clan bothered to keep time as to when the daughters were born, she is the only one that really thinks this. Born to dance as After following in tradition, she was raised with dance being the forefront of her schooling. While others were taught warfare, she was learning to imitate Cana. Of course, she did learn how to handle the weapon the clan used in honour of Dira, the war scythe. Also, she took up a bit of Spiritism from her aunt and learned to limber up properly along with Cana. Nonetheless, she mainly learned to dance.
