[Oryani]

Character Questions

General Information :

1. What is your Name? Oryani Darkeye, of the Sapphire Clan.
2. Do you go by a nickname or pet name? No.
3. How old are you? 20
4. What is your height? 5'8"
5. What is your weight? 200lbs

Aesthetics :

1. Describe yourself as you see yourself. Oryani is... tall, proud. She appears different from most Drykas, and knows it. She doesn't care much for her personal appearance, other than keeping her braids neat.
2. Describe yourself as others typically see you. Strange, with pitch black eyes that can be a little creepy, simply because of the difference. Her Drykas heritage is obvious, with the Windmarks that creep down her arms.
3. What is your favorite body feature? Her hair and braids, to show that she is a Drykas, as well as her feet... mostly because the thick soles are incredibly practical
4. How physically fit are you? She's quite fit, though more in a lean way than buff. Her arms are stronger than her legs after years of drawing a bow, but overall her body is trained after constant physical activity.
5. How do you typically dress and what is your style? Simply, with a shirt and breeches, and a canvas jacket to keep out the cold and wind. Most of her clothes are blue, or have blue accents, to show her clan's colors.

Family :

1. Who are your parents and what are they like? Her father is an unknown Chatakwe, but she generally considers the Ankal as her father. He is a good leader, if stubborn, always wanting his way... though that's a trait consistent through most of the family. Her mother is a full Chatakwe, adopted into the pavilion at first as a slave, then one of the Ankal's wives. She is resourceful and a bit tricky, and occasionally a little distant.
2. Do you have any brothers or sisters? She has a half-brother, Yetrian.
3. What is your extended family like? Friendly and close. Almost all members live in the pavilion, and are related.
4. Do you consider close friends as important or more/less important than family? Family are more important than friends.
5. Do you treat animals like family? Yes, especially her Strider

Location :

1. Where were you born? Somewhere in the Deserts of Ekytol
2. Where do you live now? Until Spring 514, Endrykas. Afterwards, Taloba
3. If you could live anywhere in Mizahar where would that be? Back in Endrykas
4. Do you have a favorite place to vacation or spend leisure time? Out in the Sea of Grass, as long as there are no predators around.
5. Where do you fear to be? Drowning at the bottom of the Ocean, or somewhere completely unfamiliar and dangerous.

Traits :

1. Do you have any physical weaknesses (disease, scars, and missing limbs?) Oryani has a weak immune system, making her more susceptible to general illnesses, due to a childhood ailment. The same disease has rendered her infertile.
2. Are you right handed or left handed? Left
3. What languages do you speak? What do you sound like? Do you have an accent? Pavi, with a perfect accent. Her Tawna is alright, though slow. Her Common is broken, with an incredibly heavy Pavi accent.
4. Do you have any odd mannerisms, annoying habits, or other defining characteristics? Not entirely.
5. Do you have (or want to get) any tattoos or piercing? Why do you have them (or will get them) ? Other than her Windmarks, no. Non-Windmark tattoos are considered horrible, mostly because Myrians love them so.

Occupations :

1. What is your occupation? Until Spring 514 AV, a Watch apprentice.
2. Do you like/dislike your work? Why? She loved the work, and wanted to continue moving up the ranks.
3. If you could be anything you wanted to, what would you be? A protector and warrior in the Watch... not for the Myrians, of course.
